Geutebrück has developed a new way of integrating several systems into an overall system: the new integration server G-Link is a central platform, on which all interfaces in the network run centrally.
G-Link combines all interfaces with the same authorisation and enables a parallel communication of all connected systems with each other.
The firm points out that integration with third party systems can save the user the often time-consuming parallel handling of several separate systems. And video images can combine with information from third party systems – such as perimeter protection or barcode scanners in logistics. The requirement for this is a jointly coordinated data exchange between the individual systems.
General Managers Katharina Geutebrück and Christoph Hoffmann said: “For us the customer benefit is paramount. Video security is more than just the recording of thousands of images. The one relevant image at the right moment is crucial. In order to provide this Winning Image, we require data from diverse sources. G-Link offers a real benefit, as it simplifies integration while at the same time offering opportunities for the control of the systems.”
The integration server is a further building block in the Geutebrück range of products for the linking of all systems into a complex, centrally controllable, homogenous overall system. The product developers describe G-Link as the automatic simultaneous translator which understands, interprets and sends the conflicting event messages of all connected systems to the others in an understandable format. So each connected system – whether access control, fire protection or product management – can control each of the others and exchange data with it.
