NAPCO Creates New Video Technologies & Services Division


As part of its continuing commitment to deliver advanced professional technology and market-responsive services, NAPCO Security Group has announced the creation of its Video Technologies & Services Division. Merited given the success of its unique video IP gateway product, the new division with ISee Video(TM) line products and services, will have a single management and engineering focus and will offer a growing range of consumer friendly video and online products and services to its dealer base.

The ISee Video flagship product, its Video IP GatewayX24, puts any 4 new or existing video cameras online on a dedicated, secure internet website, which dealers in turn provide their accounts password-protected access to. Its patented plug-and-play technology eliminates the need for dealers to interact with the customer's computer. In fact, no computer is required at the protected premises, merely a cable or DSL modem. There is no software to load, no data-ports to forward, no special central station to report in to and no PC-liability. Affordably providing remote video monitoring, ISee Video gets through any IT firewall with advanced tunnelling algorithms and can be viewed on demand 24/7. Triggered alarm events can be emailed to any web-enabled PC, cell phone, or blackberry, regardless of web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari) and /or PC operating system (Microsoft Windows®, Apple® and Linux® ). Plus, time-/date-stamped images can be archived on the server for later reference or customer retrieval via the logo-customizable server space included with the ISee Video dealer hardware package (system is sold complete with 24-months service (no additional monthly fees)). Furthermore, while ISee Video's standard Video IP Gateway is scalable/upgradeable, larger security dealer/providers can even opt to have Napco's Video Technologies & Services Division's services group set up and customize a video server of virtually any size for use and/or control from their own premises.

Headquartered in Amityville, New York and headed by Napco VP, Tom Karl, ISee Video offerings embody both exciting and leading edge technologies that are very attractive and saleable. "It's a natural sell for security dealers since busy customers love seeing their home or businesses while they're away and the truly plug-and-play ISee Video adds peace of mind, whether they're on the road, at the office or on vacation," says Karl. The establishment of this division, underscores Napco's mission to offer a means of providing our dealer base with new, easily implemented sources of reaping incremental recurring revenue.

Amazingly intuitive, the ISee Video system can be demonstrated, live, online in seconds at www.videoalert.net/ViewerV.asp and further information can be found on Napco's corporate site www.napcosecurity.com or by calling Napco 1-800-645-9445.
