Gallagher Security has extended the range of video management systems (VMS) which can integrate into its ubiquitous access and control solution.

EyeLynx Limited has developed a plugin to integrate its SharpView network video recorder with the Gallagher Command Centre. This integration allows security managers operating a Gallagher Command Centre for site control to view the high-end recording capabilities of SharpView all in one place.

HD recording and remote monitoring

Security operators can respond swiftly and appropriately to any security threats through real-time display of outputs from complementary security and site management solutions defined uniquely for their site.

SharpView specifically offers full-resolution recording and remote monitoring from an unlimited number of HD CCTV cameras.  It is in use at high-security water, utilities and education sites, bringing praise from The Metropolitan Police for its video evidence that is sharp enough even at night for full facial recognition.

Jason Boyce, Strategic Business Development Manager at Gallagher, said: “This integration offers a razor-sharp full HD recording capability to site managers with Command Centre.”

SharpView features

SharpView can record alarms from other security devices, such as intruder, fire and automatic number plate recognition sensors – while EyeLynx also offers a radar that can identify predatory vehicles up to 700m away.

EyeLynx CEO Jay Patel said: “We’re excited to have integrated SharpView into the Gallagher environment and look forward to collaborating on sites where our solutions are both specified. Collectively, we’re looking to put site managers in total command of security threats and help cut costs, increase efficiency and simplify the process.”
