Xiamen, China-July 13, 2020: Akuvox is delighted to announce that its smart intercom is now compatible
with Milestone XProtect®, a world-leading IP-based video management software
(VMS).

How the Integration Works

The compatibility between Akuvox’s
SIP-based doorphones and Milestone XProtect is ensured by the ONVIF protocol
and RTSP streaming. When Akuvox’s doorphones are added to the XProtect® system,
its HD camera, inputs and outputs are automatically mapped to XProtect® for
further usage.

The successful integration allows security
operators to remotely monitor entrances, visually verify visitors’ identities,
and open doors via Akuvox’s smart doorphones in XProtect®. The operator can
immediately see who is standing at the building entrance, and grant or deny
access to the visitor after visually verifying his/her identity.

Improve Control and Security of Building
Entrance

The integration allows security operators
to improve control and security over building entrances. They can enjoy the
features of an advanced intercom system in the Milestone XProtect video
management software (VMS). For example, operators can stream live video from Akuvox
smart intercom directly to XProtect® Smart Client to quickly detect any
suspicious activity at the front door. 

Enhance Work Process Efficiency for
Security Operators

The integration also makes
everything accessible from one unified interface. Thanks to the integration,
there is no need of an intercom answering unit for the security operators to
check on the security status of the building entrance. Videos of Akuvox’s smart
doorphones and other IP cameras of the building are displayed together in the
easy-to-use Milestone XProtect® Smart Client interface. Eliminating the need to
run two separate systems at the same time, it greatly enhances the work process
efficiency of system operators.

The successful interoperability
between Akuvox smart intercom and Milestone XProtect® allows security operators to harness the advanced functionality of
smart doorphones via the powerful live monitoring of Milestone’s VMS platform. It helps them improve control over
building entrances, increase the security level of premises, and optimize work
processes.
