New 2 and 5 megapixel cameras added to the range Hanwha Techwin has added to its Wisenet Q series with the introduction of 2 and 5 megapixel box cameras. The 2 megapixel Wisenet QNB-6002 supersedes the Wisenet QNB-6000, whilst the 5 megapixel Wisenet QNB-8002 is a new addition to the camera series.
The two H.265 cameras are equipped with an Open Platform chipset which provides the opportunity for end-users to benefit from selected edge-based specialist applications developed by Hanwha Techwin’s technology partners. The cameras also feature a suite of Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA), which includes Tampering, Directional Detection, Defocus Detection, Virtual Line, Enter/Exit and Motion Detection.
Other features of the new cameras include Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), Smart Video Compression, an SD/SDHC/SDXC memory slot and PoE support.

Wired and battery outdoor detectors launched in EMEA Optex has announced that its outdoor detector QX Infinity series is being rolled out to the EMEA region. The sensors are designed to be installed at heights of up to 2.7m, discreetly fitting into any residential or commercial buildings while keeping safe out of the reach from vandals.
Wired models are the QXI-ST 120°, 12m, wired, standard and the QXI-DT 120°, 12m, wired, dualtechnology, with an anti-blocking feature to detect intruders attempting to deliberately mask the detector
Battery-operated (wireless) models are the QXIR 120°, 12m, wireless, standard and the QXI-RDT 120°, 12m, wireless, dual-technology
All models are equipped with Quad technology and double layered detection so are designed to only be triggered when both layers are activated, eliminating the detection of small animals. It can also be installed as a low mount PIR detector to create a ‘pet alley’ and further reduce the likelihood of nuisance alarms generated by animals. The QXI series features improved Super Multi-Dimensional Analysis (SMDA) logic so the alarm will not be triggered by changes of weather or vegetation sways, and Double Conductive Shielding which filters out visible light and RFI disturbance.

Simpler licence options for access and intruder system
Inner Range has announced that Integriti partners and customers will now be able to choose from four software licensing options that include sets of features, rather than needing licences for each feature individually.
The four software options are:
Express – For basic administration of sites with a single controller.
Professional – Extends management abilities to multiple controllers and multiple sites. It’s the first software edition that allows expansion and integrations to be added.
Business – For businesses that use Integriti in their daily routines including using reporting capabilities. This is the first edition that includes CCTV integration.
Corporate – Enterprise-grade software accommodates large scale sites and includes features for on-site guards and monitoring.

EDITOR’S CHOICE The security industry is busy and complex, so it’s easy to miss new products and services as they get lost in day-to-day activities. Every now and again, certain products grab our attention so here we take a look at a few of the products we think you won’t want to miss this month.
Photo verification integrated into SBN software With the update of Translator software, SBN monitoring stations are now able to process photo confirmations of Ajax security systems. Photos from MotionCam detectors will allow SBN operators all across Europe to evaluate the situation remotely and filter false alarms.
The monitor includes full-duplex voice communication and a 4.3” capacitive touch screen. Its user interface with call and event log can be personalised with 14 different theme designs and its smart new call snapshot feature enables users to see missed calls.
Plug and play access control system with only three parts Paxton has added to its video entry product line with the Entry Standard monitor, which allows users to view guests via video before granting or denying access.
The whole Entry video system consists of three components that auto-detect on set up: external panel, interior monitor and door control unit. This monitor is a plug and play solution that can be used with a range of panel options –standard, premium and vandal resistant, making the system flexible for a variety of sites. The standard monitor completes Paxton’s entry range, joining the Entry Premium Monitor, ideal for high-end sites and the recent Entry Audio Monitor, for sites where only audio verification is required.
Application of Ajax photo verification technologies eliminates dispatching of security guards and police officers at false alarms. As a result, monitoring centers operate more efficiently and gain trust from local police enforcements.
MotionCam detectors take up to five photos upon motion detection. In under 9 seconds, users and SBN operators receive the first picture and can start analysing the situation. MotionCam never takes a picture by request. The camera activates only when the detector is triggered.

New media converters designed for commercial applications AMG Systems has released the AMG210M series of ultramini SFP media converters designed for commercial applications (0-50°C). The new range includes options for 100Mb, Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission.
Built into the 90x60x20mm housing, the AMG210M series is available in four variants; including a 100Mb media converter, a multi rate media converter (100/1000Mb), a dual port multi rate media converter (100/1000Mb) and a 10GB SFP+ media converter.
Each unit features user-selectable DIP switches to allow the configuration of features such as link fault pass-through, where the loss of either the RJ45 or SFP will cause the corresponding port to link down, enabling a fault to be detected by other connected devices. Other configurable features include, port isolation, jumbo frames, automatic laser shutdown and SFP speed selection.
Supporting network continuity, the mini media converter’s automatic reset function detects if a fibre connection is lost, and automatically performs a power cycle to try and re-establish the link, reducing system downtime and engineering callouts. All of the AMG210M series media converters ship with an in-line style wall mountable power supply and can be deployed standalone or wall mounted using the included mounting kit. For additional installation flexibility, the optional AMG210C high density chassis with dual redundant PSU’s allows up to twelve AMG210M series media converters to be rack mounted into 1U of space making it ideal for applications where rack density is a key requirement. www.amgsystems.com
