Norbain partners with Europlex Technologies
Norbain SD Limited, the UK’s largest distributor of electronic security solutions, has announced a partnership agreement with Europlex Technologies to encourage the more rapid adoption of integration in the security sector.
This will see Europlex’s technologically advanced 3GS system & CiTeC communications interface joining Norbain’s rapidly expanding Intruder Detection portfolio.
“3GS is well established as one of the leading integrated solutions and Norbain believes that systems integration should not just be a benefit offered by a few specialist companies,” says Dave Kelly, Norbain’s Divisional Director of Intruder Products. “It is another part of our business that we will be encouraging security installers to develop, and will establish Norbain as an even more complete systems provider.”
A significant number of end users now expect a single system to be able to cope with all aspects of their security requirements. Integrated security systems deliver important benefits to the end user through the reduction of cabling and interoperability between the different security disciplines (i.e. security, access control & CCTV). The net result is quicker installation and greater reliability.
When installers use the 3GS system, they will be able to provide integrated intruder alarm (wired & wireless), access control, SMS messaging and secure network connectivity, and easily link in standard video equipment from a range of leading DVR manufacturers. As a result installation engineers will no longer have to use a PC-based solution, or need to install hard-wired inputs and outputs. Europlex’s CiTeC device allows intruder alarm and access control systems to be quickly linked together to deliver a whole raft of new functions.
“The 3GS system is ideal for most installations and makes integration of multiple disciplines by the installer a reality as standard,” says Simon Jerome. “Norbain has recognised the market potential for its customers and will now be able to deliver the Europlex 3GS range to the market as a whole.”
Europlex Technologies Ltd specialises in the development and manufacture of integrated security and communications solutions, bringing together individual components including CCTV, access control, intruder alarms, remote monitoring, paging and wireless technology to create a unified system that exploits each element to maximum effect.
The company markets its products via an international network of distributors, installers, and system integrators, backed by a dedicated technical support team available to offer a comprehensive range of pre and post sales services.
