3 Recommendations for Making the Most of Today’s Intercoms
It’s a new world for security intercoms. Make sure you are taking advantage of the latest and greatest capabilities and communicating those to end users.
Today’s intercom solutions are not the same as in the past. With technological advances including IP, PoE, networking and mobile, these technologies are truly part of a fully integrated security solution and should be presented, sold and installed accordingly.
“Intercoms even three to five years ago were thought of as a convenience device where you push a button and talk to someone on the other side of the wall,” says Craig Szmania, regional business development for 2N, Axis Communications, Chelmsford, Mass. “Now they are part of a well-thought-out security solution used to protect schools, office complexes, industrial parks and more by verifying who is at the door, both from a video and audio standpoint. That is a change that has been driven by networking.”
