Network video, integrated access control and intruder alarms are a rapidly emerging market, according to Boston Networks Ltd, a UK installer of intelligent building and wireless systems.
The firm reports recent contract wins at a number of organisations in the UK and Europe, across sectors including public space, education, healthcare, enterprise and transportation.
Chief Executive, Keith Anderson, is a former Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year. He said: “The UK is renowned, worldwide, for its abundance of existing CCTV systems – most of which are nearing their end of life, or becoming obsolete due to old and poor quality analogue technology. Migrating councils’ public space and other legacy CCTV systems to IP based command and control solutions is something we have proven to have the right technology and expertise to deliver. Boston Networks work with global technology partners to provide self aware, pro active and intelligent camera and control solutions.”
“Utilising the existing network infrastructure and leveraging network based video technology allows customers to increase system performance and significantly lower staff and operating costs. Having forecast the economic downturn, we embarked on a strategic move to enhance our offering from building the network to delivering intelligent solutions that sit on the network, helping customers realise significant savings; which has resulted in a remarkable appetite from the market. These latest projects have proven to the market, and our competitors, that the convergance of network technology is both forward thinking and effective. Moreover, the migration to network connected appliances is proving to be a compelling business decision, creating a springboard for Boston Networks to further develop our solution offering and market position.”
