Building Access System (BAS)

Now Featuring Proxy Reader Support

DPS SiteMON IP

GetReal-TimeNotificationsofApprovedEntriesand InstrusionsYou don’t need a separate security system to control access to your remote sites. You can control and moni-

tor building access with a Building Access System (BAS) that integrates into your T/Mon alarm management platform. If you already own a T/Mon LNX, why not put its detailed site security capabilities to use to protect your network from physical intrusions?

With keypad and proxy reader support, you can control business access of all personnel, even temporary staff, by assigning them one of the supported 1,300 user profiles. You can define unique access priviliges between for each user by site, door, time of day, and date. Rest assured that only authorized personnel will be able to access restricted doors.

• Centralized entry management & control • Supports up to 1,300 users • Grant access by day of the week, time of day, and location • Supports up to 16 doors per site (8 per NetGuardian RS485 port) • BAS sustains connectivity losses to local NetGuardians and T/Mon • Logs all building entries and exits • Supports SiteMON IP (below) & external sensors (pgs. 12-13)

With the SiteMON IP, there’s no more sitting around, wondering what’s happening at your remote sites. Now, you can view live images from this part-camera, part-RTU, right from the comfort of your central office.

In addition to using the integrated web browser to view your sites live, images are automatically archived on T/Mon. You’ll define “trigger events” that tell the SiteMON IP to capture images before and after critical events. Example trigger events could be when motion is detected, when a door opens, etc. The SiteMON IP is designed to integrate seamlessly into your Building Access System (above).

Tools like playback, step-through, and saving will allow you to review and manage the SiteMON’s images with ease. The SiteMON IP is the ideal solution for monitoring equipment rooms, parking lots, hallways, and for detecting weather patterns at your most remote sites.

• Outdoor enclosure also available • 2 Local alarm inputs, 2 control relay outputs • Internal/external temp sensors • 12 or 24VDC to power peripherals • View live images or cache them on your PC for viewing later

DPS Telecom OEM Services:How to Get Exactly What You Need

WITHOUT Spending More...

You’re making a big investment, and that should never involve settling for what you can find off-the-shelf. You don’t have to deal with a inflexible monitoring system that wasn’t designed with you in mind. Here are the 3 key advantages of a custom solution for your OEM project:

3 Key Advantages of a Custom OEM Solution

1.Customizationofferstheexactfunctionalityyouneed...As an OEM, there are many things for you to consider when beginning a new project. Evolving technology demands for new equipment functions, new standards put in place, and more. Adapting to the ever-changing market is much easier with a custom solution. A custom design offers the exact functionality you’re looking for, even if it can’t be found in an existing product. Sometimes this is as simple as changing the color or private-labeling the product.

2. Don’t pay for unwanted product features...You’ve got a fixed budget for this new project, and there’s no room to pay for unnecessary features. And if no existing products fit all your specs, you could end up buying several pieces of equipment to make up for it. Not only does this drive up cost, but is makes integration a headache.

3.Discovernewproductbenefitsyouneverdreamedof...When you decide to take the custom design route, you probably expect the engineers to “take your order” and deliver the product features you’ve asked for. What you don’t expect is for the engineers assigned to your proj-ect to uncover even more benefits from your design that you hadn’t thought of. The engineers working on your project should help you squeeze every ounce of muscle from your design to maximize your investment.

With a mass-produced product, you pay for unneeded features or more products than you have space and budget for. With a customized product, you get exactly what you need.

With an in-house Engineering department, metal shop, and production facility, DPS oversees your OEM project fromstarttofinish.
