Unipart Security’s Monitoring & Response Centre in Oxford has integrated WebWay signalling technology with its alarm receiving platform.
Simon Jennings, Sales Manager of Unipart Security chose the commercial and domestic alarm signalling solution as it was designed to integrate with all types of security systems including intruder, fire and video surveillance.
He said: “Unipart Security and WebwayOne technical personnel have worked closely together to ensure a high level of integration. WebWay IP/GPRS removes the need for telephone lines. Instead the communicators use cutting edge software to send polls to the alarm systems in order to simultaneously monitor the network, send alarms and allow remote maintenance and servicing of the alarm panel. The integration of WebWay signalling technology means that Unipart Security can monitor any premises, and if necessary, deal with any incident, regardless of whether the system at the protected premises is analogue or IP network based.”
In addition to intruder, fire and CCTV system monitoring, the Unipart Security’s NSI Gold Category II Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) and Remote Video Response Centre (RVRC) accredited facility, is able to provide a wide range of other monitoring services including asset and vehicle tracking, lone worker protection, manned security management and a 24 hour support desk.
WebWayOne commercial director Chris Carter Brennan said he was “delighted” that Unipart had chosen WebWayOne.
He continued: “Unipart Security’s customers will benefit from the fact that WebWay’s communicators integrate with all the leading alarm panels via the serial date interface for extended format alarms, providing fast, secure and reliable transmission in a rich data format over IP and GPRS networks.”
