Premium monitor for visitor<br />
and site management<br />
Paxton has announced the launch of the Net2<br />
Entry Premium Monitor featuring a glass touch<br />
screen and 25 background themes making it ideal<br />
for a range of applications.<br />
The monitor boasts features including a<br />
concierge function, offering simple visitor and site<br />
management. This enables users who are busy or<br />
away to divert the monitor to reception, and if the<br />
caller is missed, enhanced call administration<br />
provides a video snapshot and event log of<br />
visitors.<br />
Additional features include a digital camera<br />
enabling two-way communication between users<br />
or the concierge, and a line-out for use with a T-<br />
Loop antenna for users with hearing aids.<br />
The monitor is available in two variations, with<br />
or without a handset. A desktop stand<br />
is also available, making the monitor<br />

IP tester for easier installation and troubleshooting on any CCTV camera system<br />
Ideal Networks has launched the SecuriTEST IP, which<br />
enables technicians to install, test, troubleshoot and<br />
document IP/digital, HD coax and analogue CCTV<br />
camera systems with a single unit.<br />
The handheld SecuriTEST IP unit removes the need to<br />
use external power adapters and injectors andcoupled with one-hand<br />
operation make it easier to use on lifts and ladders. SecuriTEST IP<br />
offers automated camera connectivity via the QuickIP function. This<br />
allows even novice technicians to connect and configure IP cameras as<br />
quickly and easily as their analogue counterparts. Using the ONVIF<br />
protocol, SecuriTEST IP can connect to cameras from virtually every<br />
manufacturer without the need for proprietary software for each<br />
vendor. Video protocols, including H.264, H.265 and MJPEG, are<br />
supported to ensure broad camera compatibility with one tester.<br />
Using either the touch screen or keypad, camera information, network settings, aim and focus can all be easily configured, even for 4K<br />
camera systems. Additionally, PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) presets can be programmed into the camera during installation before the head-end<br />
equipment is in place, further reducing total installation time. www.idealnetworks.net<br />
