Challenge Netmagic uses a combination of self-developed open-source tools to provide advanced data storage and management services to its customers, and needs a highly-available, scalable and dynamic IT infrastructure. So when the company decided to renew its datacenter networks in Bangalore and Mumbai, only a feature-rich, cutting-edge solution could do. The data-centers in Bangalore and Mumbai, named Bangalore3 and Mumbai5 respectively, required major network redesigns. Netmagic had three major requirements for the winning proposal. The network had to be non-stop because data centers operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year; second, the chosen products are capable of processing large amounts of IP CCTV data for security and surveillance, building management and access control; and lastly, Netmagic wanted the total solution from a single vendor who could provide the design of the new networks, industry-leading products, and top-notch support for the installation and commissioning of the new networks. Netmagic appointed NK Jain and Epsilon Design for physical security consultancy. After careful consideration of proposals from several network vendors, Netmagic selected a complete Allied Telesis network solution. Solution Allied Telesis designed highly-reliable data-center networks and installed feature-rich products to create a resilient solution that Netmagic needed. x510 series stackable Gigabit switches are installed in both networks’ core and distribution layers of Bangalore3 and Mumbai5 Data-centers. These switches provide powerful resiliency, security and management features in a compact and highly-reliable package. The x510 switches are deployed in pairs using Allied Telesis Virtual Chassis Stacking (VCStack™), allowing them to function as a single virtual device, providing load balancing and redundancy.

Success The network renewal was smoothly completed without any trouble, and has been operating without issue ever since. The new network was constructed in managed phases, and was carried out with hands-on technical support from Allied Telesis every step of the way. The new data-center networks support Netmagic in supplying world-class data and CCTV storage, as well as Cloud-based services to their many valued customers, 24 hours a day, every day. “We needed a totally redundant, non-stop network capable of processing large amounts of IP CCTV data. We also wanted a complete solution that included both network design and products. Allied Telesis provided excellent support during installation, and we were very happy with both the service and solution we received ” – Mahesh Kumar Patil Assistant General Manager, Netmagic Solutions Pvt. Ltd.

Princeton Identity Inc. has recently deployed its Access500e™ identity management kiosk module within the Dubai International Airport (DXB). The Princeton Identity solution identifies DXB travelers within one to two seconds, reducing time spent in security lines and enhancing the overall travel experience. The Emirates Airlines terminals are the largest terminals within one of the world’s busiest passenger airports. Dubai saw nearly 14.9 million international visitors in 2016, and is expected to surpass 20 million visitors by 2020. There are currently about 100 Access500e products in operation across DXB’s Emirates Airlines terminals, with plans to deploy about 40 more in the near future in order to support the influx of new international tourists. “Princeton Identity and the Dubai International Airport share a goal of simplifying and speeding access to keep people and business moving, and the Access500e deployment at the DXB marks a new standard in passenger security,” said Mark Clifton, Chief Executive Officer at Princeton Identity, “Iris recognition is most reliable form of biometric identification, and the Access500e turns what used to be a slow process for travelers into a convenient, quick and more secure experience.” Access500e is a fast, high quality face and iris biometric capture device designed for integration into a variety of application solutions. At DBX, it is integrated into a new Smart Gate, commonly referred to as the ‘Eyen’ gate system, which captures biometric signatures – eliminating the need for visitors to check in with a customs agent, and saving time for passengers as well as airport staff. This helps ensure verification of all travelers entering and leaving the country, seamlessly and efficiently. Princeton Identity partnered with the tech company Emaratech in fostering the implementation of Access500e into the terminals at DBX. “DXB has always set a high bar in terms of innovative and future-forward experiences and we applaud the leadership team’s decision to tap the power of iris recognition to further enhance both traveler satisfaction and security,” added Clifton. A newly opened Princeton Identity International office in Dubai is dedicated to ensuring the continued success and expanded implementation at DXB. The office will also serve as the hub for Princeton Identity’s Middle Eastern and African regional offices, supporting territories ranging from Northern Africa to Eastern Europe and Jordan. Princeton Identity will use this new hub to further its work with organizations in the enterprise, healthcare, financial and government sectors in the Greater Middle Eastern region.

Chapel Hill-Carrboro Schools Uses 3xLOGIC Hybrid NVRs

MassMediaLink India LLP SecurityLink IndiaFebruary 2, 2018November 14, 202405 mins

Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools (NC) have recently standardized on 3xLOGIC hybrid NVRs across their expansive school district. 3xLOGIC, Inc., is a leading provider of integrated, intelligent security solutions, and a three-time Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ winner. “This school district has always been ahead of the times, they’ve had video surveillance and access control in place for 15 years,” explained Chuck Harrelson, President, Sonitrol of the Triangle, the integrator and consultant for the district, “School Resource Officers (SRO)consistently rely on the video feeds and controlled access to help them effectively execute their duties.” The district has 23 education and administration buildings, all equipped with a mix of analog and IP cameras. At upwards of 90 to 100 cameras at some locations, Chapel Hill-Carrboro has video from several hundreds of cameras system wide. “The 3xLOGIC hybrid NVRs are great, upon installation we didn’t have to take out any legacy analog cameras. Now, when an analog camera fails, we install a 3xLOGIC IP camera. That is so much better than asking the district to write a huge check when we upgraded the system,” said Harrelson. About a year ago, Sonitrol of the Triangle convinced the district to start using 3xLOGIC’s VIGIL Central Management (VCM). “Health monitoring (VCM) has been a big help, so many times the SRO or administration person wouldn’t notice that a camera or NVR was down, or they would know but neglect to tell us. Then, there would be an incident, and invariably we would not know equipment had been malfunctioning. Now, we often roll a truck and fix the problem before they know they have a problem. This takes the responsibility off the schools and shows us to be pro-active problem solvers,” said Harrelson. After network health monitoring, Harrelson and his team worked to get the district to move toward installing Video Verification capabilities. “We donated 3xLOGIC Multi-Sensor devices to each school and integrated them with state-mandated panic buttons that are monitored by our Sonitrol central station.” “Our goal with the donation of the multi-sensor devices was to provide live video verification in the event a panic button is pushed. Such verification can be invaluable information to responding authorities. Also, we’re going to be adding more multi-sensors to solve the issues of false alarms caused by the challenges of a large facility with so many people coming and going. For example, when a coach comes back with the team late at night and forgets to properly disarm the system, the multi-sensor provides live video to our monitoring center to let them know what is causing the alarm. By partnering in this way, we’re trying to put the district in the very best position to succeed with their security program and technology.”
