Genetec Inc has launched the Genetec Cloudlink™ 2210, a new cloud-managed device designed to meet the complex demands of large-scale enterprise security systems.
The appliance addresses key challenges encountered when transitioning to a cloud-based infrastructure, including the costs associated with cloud storage, support for existing devices lacking direct cloud connectivity, and maintaining local functionality during network disruptions.
About the Cloudlink 2210
Featuring a 2U rack-mount form factor, the Cloudlink 2210 allows substantial organisations to expand their cloud-managed security protocols across dense, critical environments without necessitating infrastructure redesigns. The device consolidates various operations such as video management, access control, and intrusion into a single appliance, enhancing management efficiency while reducing operational burdens in large-scale deployments.
Unlike systems that distribute workloads across various proprietary architectures, the Cloudlink 2210 is built on an open architecture enabling seamless integration with a diverse array of third-party devices, such as cameras and control systems. This flexibility allows organisations to modernise their security setups at scale while maintaining operational continuity and minimising migration risks.
Redefining cloud-managed security
Each Cloudlink 2210 appliance supports many devices with up to 240 TB of local storageChristian Chenard Lemire, Product Director of Unified Solutions at Genetec, highlighted the dual emphasis on innovation and operational stability: “Enterprises don’t want to choose between innovation and operational certainty. With Cloudlink 2210, we’re redefining what cloud-managed physical security looks like at scale by giving organisations the freedom to modernise on their own terms, control long-term costs, and maintain the resiliency and continuity their most critical environments demand.”
Designed for scale and flexibility
Each Cloudlink 2210 appliance supports numerous connected devices and offers up to 240 TB of local storage, making it particularly suitable for high-density device environments with extensive retention needs.
Its design reduces reliance on cloud storage, helping to manage storage costs. Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is optimal for environments prioritising uptime and local data retention.
Resiliency for critical environments
The Cloudlink 2210 ensures robust performance with features such as RAID-protected storage and redundant components to maintain data security and system availability.
In scenarios of network disruption, security functions continue seamlessly, thanks to hardware-level resilience and dual network interfaces aiding in cybersecurity through redundancy and network separation.
Scalable without infrastructure overhaul
Centralised cloud management provides consistent oversight and control across all deployments
Scaling is made straightforward with the ability to add units as needs grow, allowing for increased device and storage capacity without overhauling existing infrastructure.
Centralised cloud management provides consistent oversight and control across all deployments. Part of Genetec's broader commitment to flexible deployment options, the Cloudlink 2210 supports premises-based, cloud, or hybrid environments according to operational and regulatory needs. This integration of local processing power with cloud-based management facilitates scalability and performance while preserving control.
It also provides channel partners with the capability to manage larger projects more efficiently, accommodating strict retention policies and hybrid infrastructure engagements.
Availability
The Genetec Cloudlink 2210 will be presented at ISC West, booth #13062, and is expected to be globally available in May 2026 through accredited channel partners of Genetec.
Genetec Inc, the global pioneer in enterprise physical security software, announced Genetec Cloudlink™ 2210.
Designed for complex, enterprise-scale deployments, the new cloud-managed appliance addresses the practical challenges enterprises face when adopting a cloud-managed model at scale, including cloud storage costs, support for existing devices that do not enable direct-to-cloud connectivity, and the need to maintain local operation during connectivity disruptions.
About the Cloudlink 2210
With a stackable, 2U rack-mount form factor, the Cloudlink 2210 enables large organisations to extend cloud-managed security across high-density, mission-critical environments without redesigning their existing infrastructure.
Like the rest of the Genetec Cloudlink line, the 2210 supports multiple workloads, including video management, access control, and intrusion, in a single appliance. By consolidating these workloads into one appliance, it reduces system sprawl, simplifies management in large-scale environments, and lowers operational overhead.
Unlike solutions that separate workloads across multiple proprietary systems, Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is built on an open architecture that supports a wide range of third-party devices, including cameras, access control systems, and intrusion panels. This enables organisations to modernise at scale within a unified, cloud-managed model designed to preserve architectural flexibility, while securely integrating existing hardware, maintaining business continuity, and reducing migration risks.
Redefining cloud-managed physical security
“Enterprises don’t want to choose between innovation and operational certainty,” said Christian Chenard Lemire, Product Director, Unified Solutions, Genetec Inc. “With Cloudlink 2210, we’re redefining what cloud-managed physical security looks like at scale by giving organisations the freedom to modernise on their own terms, control long-term costs, and maintain the resiliency and continuity their most critical environments demand.”
Designed for scale and flexibility
Cloudlink 2210 supports hundreds of connected devices per appliance and provides up to 240 TB of local storage per unit, making it well-suited for deployments with high device density and long retention policies. The Cloudlink 2210 is ideal for enterprise environments where uptime and local retention requirements are operational priorities because its design minimises dependence on cloud storage, helping organisations control long-term storage costs while maintaining the performance and availability required in enterprise environments.
Resiliency for environments that cannot afford downtime
Cloudlink 2210 also incorporates hardware-level resiliency to support strict uptime and retention requirements. RAID-protected storage and redundant system components help ensure data protection and OS availability. Security workloads continue operating locally, independent of cloud connectivity, allowing deployments to maintain continuity even during network disruptions. Dual network interfaces provide redundancy and support network isolation to strengthen cybersecurity.
Scaling without infrastructure overhaul
Cloudlink 2210 scales by adding units as requirements grow, enabling organisations to increase device counts and storage capacity without redesigning their infrastructure. Centralised cloud management maintains visibility and control across deployments.
Expanding deployment & project flexibility
Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is part of the broader Genetec approach to deployment flexibility. The cloud-managed appliance portfolio enables organisations to operate on premises, in the cloud, or across hybrid environments based on their operational and regulatory requirements. By combining high-performance local processing and storage with centralised cloud operations and management, Cloudlink 2210 supports scalable, cloud-managed deployments without compromising control or performance.
For channel partners, this flexibility enables larger, higher-density projects within a consistent cloud-managed appliance framework. Integrators can simplify installation, accelerate rollout timelines, and scale predictably by adding units as requirements grow. This approach accommodates customers with strict retention policies and hybrid environments that seamlessly combine local infrastructure with Security Center SaaS.
Availability
The Genetec Cloudlink 2210 will be showcased at ISC West in booth #13062 and is expected to begin shipping globally in May 2026 through the Genetec network of accredited channel partners.
