Genetec™, a leading provider of unified IP security solutions and Mercury Security, a global leader of OEM access control hardware, recently announced a closer technology partnership geared to benefit both Genetec and Mercury customers with a broader, open-platform choice when moving to Genetec’s Synergis IP access control solution. Genetec customers will be able to leverage Mercury’s complete line of door controllers and associated modules for both new and existing systems.
This expanded partnership between the two companies addresses an ongoing trend in the security industry as demand grows for a more open approach to update legacy access control modules to a unified, IP-based system. End customers will now have a truly ‘open-system’ approach when utilising the Authentic Mercury platform with Synergis - a fully unified, next-generation IP access control system that can be seamlessly unified with video surveillance, intercom communications, and intrusion panel integration. Furthermore, this collaboration will enable Genetec to offer the full line of Authentic Mercury hardware to its channel of dealers, systems integrators and value-added distributors throughout the world
