Intransa Adds Distribution through Anixter
Major Step for Intransa CCTV Upgrade & All-IP Surveillance Solutions
SAN JOSE, California and LAS VEGAS, Nevada — March 31, 2009
Intransa, the leader in video data management and retention for physical security, today here at the opening of ISC West, announced a distribution agreement with Anixter Inc. The agreement significantly steps up availability of Intransa's Smart CCTV Upgrades and All-IP Retention Solutions for Open NVRs, VMS and PSIM surveillance solutions.
Anixter Inc. is the world's leading supplier of supply chain services and products used to connect voice, video and security systems. With a market-leading portfolio of security products, Intransa is the first provider of video data management and retention solutions to be offered by Anixter, fulfilling the need to reduce surveillance cost and energy consumption, while eliminating the risk of lost video and increasing video quality and extending retention.
"The addition of Anixter to our sales coverage is a major enhancement for the company," said Bud Broomhead, CEO of Intransa. "With proven expertise and global market reach, there is no one better than Anixter for integrators and dealers to turn to for the most cost efficient and reliable physical security solutions. This partnership will be of tremendous benefit to both our security practitioner customers and our channel partners who offer video data management and retention solutions to meet today's surveillance needs."
More than 150 products from manufacturers of physical security, surveillance, imaging and technology products are already certified for risk-free integration with Intransa video data management and retention platforms through the StorAlliance program. Many, such as leading intelligent IP video management system vendor On-Net Surveillance Systems, Inc., are available through Anixter Inc. and are proven in integration with Intransa solutions in multiple customer deployments.
Intransa now offers its video surveillance-optimized solutions to the market through Anixter Inc., supported by an extensive manufacturer's representative firm network with Intransa channel sales teams across Canada and the U.S. Intransa products are also available through AMAG Technology, Inc. and the PSA Technology Alliance, and through a variety of well respected integrators including Convergint Technologies. Internationally, a network of leading distributors and master resellers offer Intransa, including Zycko Ltd. in EMEA, Macnica Networks in Japan, and Databridge Communications (M) Sdn. Bhd. in Malaysia, plus integrators such as Bitelco Diebold Chile in South America.
On Tuesday, March 31, at ISC West, 1:47 p.m., room 903, at the Sands Expo and Convention Center, Alan Rowe, Intransa CTO, will present in the Security Industry Associations' New Product Showcase. The Intransa StarterBlock is also in consideration for an NPS award for a Smart CCTV DVR Upgrade that reduces cost, increases video retention, and eliminates the risk of lost video for less than the price of a new DVR.
Also at ISC West, Intransa CEO Bud Broomhead will participate in a Dealer / Installer / Technician / Integrator track panel discussion at 1 p.m., room 201 on Wednesday, April 1st. The session, DI24: Selling Security Convergence - Understanding the Skills Gap, will be moderated by Dan Dunkel, CEO of New Era Associates and an Intransa Advisory Board member. Representatives from Cisco Systems and Proximex, both Intransa StorAlliance members, will round out the panel discussion.
Immediately after, at 2 p.m., room 201, Intransa VP marketing and ASIS International Physical Security Council member Jeff Whitney presents IP02: 1 and Up DVR Upgrades: Leverage Shared IP Storage to Reduce Surveillance Cost While Increasing Retention & Reliability, in the IT/IP Convergence track.
In the ISC West expo, April 1 - 3, attendees can see Intransa video data management and retention solutions integrated with solutions from several StorAlliance members throughout the show floor. These include AMAG Technology, Inc. (booth 14097), Exacq Technologies (booth 24135), JDS Digital Video (booth 18135), Milestone Systems (booth 10064) and Time Sight Systems (booth 8054).
