Cameras, domes, recorders and Ethernet switches within Samsung Techwin’s IP network video range, have been approved for use within Network Rail infrastructure.
The issuing of the PADS Certificate of Acceptance follows a process during which the company’s video surveillance products were evaluated and tested to ensure that they are reliable, fit for purpose and comply with the railway infrastructure owner Network Rail’s standards for safety.
Simon Shawley, pictured, Director, Northern Europe for the Security Solutions division of Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd, said: “This is a significant landmark for Samsung Techwin as PADS approval means that consultants, system designers and specifiers can include our products in their proposals and be confident that they will be acceptable to Network Rail’s project managers. The rail sector offers considerable new business opportunities for installers and systems integrators and we are therefore understandably very pleased that we can now offer high performance video surveillance solutions which, as well as being robust and reliable, will meet the safety requirements of security projects within the Network Rail infrastructure.”
Among the products approved are the company’s ‘open platform’ WiseNetIII high definition megapixel cameras. These let users choose a combination of edge-based video analytics and video management software (VMS) which best matches the requirements of a project.
