ScanSource Security, a wholly owned subsidiary of ScanSource, Inc. (NASDAQ: SCSC), and leading distributor of physical security solutions, has signed a distribution agreement with CameraVision, a provider of covert IP camera solutions.
CameraVision’s enclosure solutions allow existing cameras to be positioned inconspicuously and at better angles for enhanced monitoring and more functional imaging where security is so important, such as a retail environment. CameraVision can incorporate cameras into covert enclosures, such as electrical boxes and smoke detectors, allowing for improved perspective and better imaging. They are the first to offer this type of camera architecture for network cameras.
“CameraVision offers a great solution for our reseller partners who are looking to provide enhanced security options and reinforces our commitment to the retail segment,” said Paul Constantine, vice president of merchandising, ScanSource Security. “What’s more, their solutions integrate well with our Axis Communications network camera technology solutions, enabling our customers to add on to their current security offering.”
“CameraVision’s covert and discrete products enhance retailer deployments of network camera technology,” said Patrik Pettersson, business development manager, Retail, Axis Communications Inc. “By integrating with Axis Communications, CameraVision ensures maximum compatibility with a majority of different IP video management platforms, allowing end users to select the one that best meets their business needs.”
“A strategic collaboration is important when entering a new market. We are happy to have ScanSource Security as our distributor and are excited to ‘add value’ to the American surveillance/CCTV scene together with them,” said Åsa Ericsson, CEO, CameraVision. “CameraVision’s experience in the European CCTV market together with ScanSource Security’s knowledge and great service to the American market is a good match.”
