Secure Display Stations

Secure Display Stations are dedicated video wall appliances designed to display live video on digital monitors without the cost, complexity and security risk of a client workstation. They can be managed directly through Genetec™ Security Center.

Many Genetec™ Security Center deployments have areas in which it is useful to share live video and security information. These areas often share a number of characteristics that make it difficult or ineffective to deploy a full client workstation:

• Staff in the area is not trained or qualified to operate Security Center and need access to live video from key areas around the facility.
• Backup power is tested regularly leading to regular, brief power loss. This can damage workstations and lead them to get stalled in the reboot process.
• The video wall is in a public area where a workstation would pose a security risk.

A Secure Display Station can be mounted to the back of a high definition monitor and connected to the secure network. Trained Security Center operators can then control which cameras are displayed on each tile of a video wall layout. Security Center can also send video automatically based on threat levels, schedules and macros.  Synergis access control events can also drive video displayed.

Integration features and benefits

• Allows security video to be shared in areas of the facility where a client VMS workstation can’t be deployed.
• Allows trained Genetec™ Security Center operators to share video and other important security information more broadly.
• Leverages your unified Genetec™ Security Center platform by using Synergis access control events to automatically share relevant video.
• Enhances safety for staff.
  Promotes awareness that security is everyone’s responsibility.
• Allows security updates and alerts to be efficiently communicated to staff before they leave the facility.
• Set and forget. Staff get the safety and operational benefits of video while focusing on their day to day responsibilities.

Security Desk Client Encoder (ION-E100-HD)

The ION-E100-HD is a dedicated fanless & ultra compact video encoder designed specifically for use with most HDMI sources such as desktop computer outputs, server outputs and HDMI cameras. The ION-E100-HD is capable of encoding H.264 streams at resolutions up to 1080p30 / 720p60 for transmission over IP networks, to NVR servers for recording or IP video decoders for display. They can be managed directly through Genetec™ Security Center.

The IONODES ION-E100-HD can take the video output of a Security Desk workstation and convert it to a video stream.  Security Center can manage, record and distribute this stream like a camera. This is often used for supervisory and training purposes.

Application: Casinos & Gaming

Appropriate use of cameras and the VMS is extremely important in Casinos. All operator actions must be recorded for use in investigations.  The ION-E100-HD provides a seamless mechanism to do this.  Security Center privileges can be used to ensure that only Investigators have access to this video.

Integration features and benefits

• The encoder captures all user actions on the workstation, not only the actions made in Security Center.
• Native integration to Genetec Security Center through the Genetec API
• Designed and manufactured in Canada
• High quality H.264 video encoding
• Supports up to 1080p30/720p60
• Powered over Ethernet
