Alarm/Security Cable
How Security Technology is Evolving and What it Means for Cabling
The security industry has come a long way from basic alarm systems and video surveillance. Today’s security devices are primarily IP-based, which means they can send and receive data over the Internet, allowing users to stay connected from anywhere. With advancements in Ethernet networks, the Internet of Things (IoT), and wireless systems, security devices can now communicate essential information, like whether a door is open or closed, no matter where you are.
Examples of Connected Security Systems in Action
- Remote Monitoring: Thermostats and CCTV cameras can now send their data to off-site users, so you can monitor and control your environment remotely.
- Automated Controls: HVAC, lighting, and shades can be set up to activate based on occupancy, only turning on when people are present.
- Access-Based Actions: Systems can respond to access data from badge readers, fingerprint or facial recognition, and proximity sensors, making security smarter and more responsive.
- Advanced Card Reader Technology: The industry is moving toward newer, more secure standards like OSDP and cloud-based systems, enhancing access management.
