Pacom welcomes visitors to The Security Event at the NEC, Birmingham, to preview its next-generation cloud-based platform. The company can be found on stand No. 4/J60 between April 25^th – 27^th where its team of technical experts will be on hand to show visitors how this next-generation software solution will offer  the flexibility, scalability, affordability and functionality demanded by today’s organisations.

“The Security Event provides the perfect opportunity for us to preview our next-generation Pacom solution and engage with our valued integration partners and end users,” said  Richard Joslin, Pacom Senior Director of Sales.  “This solution is a centrally controlled integrated security management platform that is intelligent, user-friendly, and highly cost-effective. It is a true game-changer and a great fit for customers with single sites, hundreds of sites or large campus environments.”

The culmination of a significant program of research and development, the solution has been designed to redefine what’s possible in security integration management, without any legacy restrictions. However, it also extends its functionality beyond security by acting as an interface with the internet of things (IoT). By accessing, storing and processing data from the smart IoT sensors found in intrusion detection, access control, audio, video and building management systems, it is able to deliver valuable business intelligence, operational insights and efficiencies.   

Leveraging the Pacom security system infrastructure, data from hundreds of locations can be aggregated and analyzed by the Pacom system or supplied to other corporate systems. For example, a large customer in Europe is using the Pacom system backnet integration to collect electrical usage data from all their locations and supply it to a corporate system that is tracking their green initiatives.

By offering more than just security, it provides complete control over the entire building services ecosystem and can scale up and down as required. It provides existing Pacom users with an opportunity to migrate to the solution quickly and easily via a sustainable upgrade path that can be implemented based on the client’s schedule. This makes it perfect for applications such as banking and finance, as well as other verticals such as logistics and warehousing, commercial, cell towers, critical infrastructure and multi-site retail locations.

The cloud is having a huge impact on the security industry, with end users now able to harness the power, flexibility and functionality it facilitates. This solution is fully cloud-enabled and a fully customizable dashboard can be accessed via any internet-connected desktop PC or smartphone. Users can view live and playback video from cloud cameras, bookmark cameras for quick and easy access from the main dashboard, check camera health status, set profiles and permissions, assign credentials, set rules, export footage clips, and arm or disarm devices – anytime, anyplace, anywhere. It can also be set up as a purely on-premise solution or even in a hybrid configuration that offers the best of both worlds.

“We’re tremendously excited about the next generation of Pacom and its unique ability to integrate a variety of building services over one integrated security management platform,” concluded Richard Joslin. “Pacom is working to lead the way in the design, manufacture and installation of cutting-edge security systems and we are looking forward to welcoming visitors to our stand No. 4/J60 so we can explain more about how we are able to transform the operational effectiveness of a diverse range of built environments.”
