Honeywell Spotlights IP Security at IFSEC 2008

Integrated Digital Solutions and Partner of Choice Programme

BURGESS HILL, UK, 22 April 2008 – Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced that it will focus on integrated, IP-based security systems at IFSEC 2008 taking place at the NEC Birmingham from May 12 – 15.

The company will showcase a range of security products and solutions on Stand 10070 in Hall 6 including its new EQUIP Series IP camera family, ACUIX™ PTZ dome camera; Active Alert® video analytics suite; FUSION Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) software; Pro-Watch security management software and SmartPlus® Imprivata® Connector. In addition, Honeywell is promoting its Partner of Choice programme, which is designed to help systems integrators and installer companies leverage increasing public interest in digital and IP-based security.

The products and solutions taking centre stage on the Honeywell Security stand this year are:

  • EQUIP Series of IP cameras – Adopting the look of Honeywell’s successful analogue camera line, the EQUIP Series is a new family of IP-enabled professional cameras. The range includes indoor and outdoor pendant models, day/night body cameras and even a vandal resistant mini-dome.
  • Crowning the EQUIP line is the new ACUIX PTZ dome camera, which features improved installation and set-up time. The updated model provides superior images, faster response to events and tighter integration with Honeywell DVRs, DVM and intrusion devices. The ACUIX dome features True Day/Night, 35X zoom lens, Wide Dynamic Range for difficult lighting situations and Electronic Image Stabilisation for improved image quality in unstable mounting situations.
  • Pro-Watch security management software – Aimed at enterprises of all sizes, Pro-Watch management software incorporates access control, alarm monitoring, video badging and CCTV system interfaces. The solution’s wizards, shortcuts, and templates make it easy to install and use. There are three editions of Pro-Watch – Enterprise, Corporate and Professional – which serve to meet a variety of security needs.
  • SmartPlus Imprivata Connector – Designed for use with Honeywell’s Pro-Watch system, the SmartPlus Imprivata uses OneSign™ Physical/Logical to provide a single point of authentication. It closes security gaps that exist when physical access control and IT network authentication systems live in self-contained silos.
  • Active Alert video analytics suite – Designed to increase the efficiency of CCTV systems, the Active Alert suite automatically detects, analyses and classifies the behaviours of individuals and vehicles as they move through a scene, providing real-time alarms and search tools that enhance manned and unmanned video surveillance systems. Active Alert also enables historic scene activity to be retrieved instantly for analysis.
  • Fusion ANPR software – The Fusion ANPR system logs vehicles and their plate numbers in an application-rich database. It enables the cost-effective detection, classification and retrieval of vehicle number plates in critical applications and is ideal for security and access control operations in environments including law enforcement, traffic control, car park management and access control, airports, hotels, city centre CCTV, ports of entry and military bases.
