Access Control and Surveillance as IP Infrastructure
Access Control and Surveillance as IP Infrastructure
Devices and Applications in the corporate environment have become increasingly IP-based. The IP which used to be always there on the backend, at the integration level, is finding a place in front end user application as well. The simplicity and familiarity to configure are the two main reasons which drive the IP adoption.
The recent two new applications, which were traditionally non-IP or non-IT, are access control and surveillance, to be added to IP Infrastructure. Both these applications are beside whatever have already transformed like voice communication (SIP Now), Storages, Wireless access etc. Access control and Surveillance, both these devices used IPs; only in the head-end side where the storage media or controllers are connected to the network infrastructure. Today CCTV cameras and the access controller up to the sensor level, are IP enabled and ready for deployment as part of the IT infrastructure.
These changes have been gradually happening for the last 10 years. Because of the ubiquitous nature of IP in the infrastructure, it is logical for any manufacturer to adopt IP for their applications to be part of the infrastructure. All the Low voltage applications, including the Industrial Automation, will morph or change to IP Infrastructure
