"Our multi-tiered system products strategy supports the migration to a networked platform and keeps the needs of the market first by offering a diverse selection of migration paths to a networked platform," said Mr. DeFina. "Panasonic will continue to apply its core competencies across both analog and networked system platforms and work across industry lines to help the industry achieve true seamless interoperability and enterprise level integration."
Panasonic will also be showing ongoing support for their strategic programming initiatives at this year's ISC West. The Panasonic Solution Developer Network (PSDN) has grown to include close to 65 participants and is continuing to open boundaries between manufacturers to develop interoperable and seamless solutions for the benefit of the end-user.
