NICE Systems Releases NiceVision eXpress IP video surveillance solution for small- and mid-sized deployments

“NICE’s ‘entry to enterprise’ strategy with NiceVision eXpress is aligned with today’s security market needs,” said Bill Bozeman, CEO of the PSA Security Network. “Just because a security organization starts off small with their initial video surveillance deployment, doesn’t mean they should have to settle for less. Now they can have the best of both worlds by investing in a solution that is easy and cost effective to implement, yet fully upgradeable to enterprise-class capabilities.” The PSA Security Network is the world’s largest electronic security cooperative with members responsible for over $1.7 billion annually in security, fire, and life safety installations. Its members are leading security systems integrators who specialize in the design, installation, integration, and maintenance of access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection, fire, and life safety systems.

NiceVision eXpress is designed for organizations that need to monitor, record and manage video surveillance networks for small- and mid-sized deployments in a cost-efficient manner while leveraging the core technology of NICE’s market-leading, enterprise-class NiceVision solution. NiceVision eXpress supports IP, megapixel, analog and hybrid environments, enabling a seamless upgrade path and investment protection, allowing organizations to expand their capacity and capabilities as their needs grow. Available as a software-only solution or turnkey solution that can be hosted on a single server, NiceVision eXpress integrates with third-party access control systems and other security systems, and is compatible with NICE’s existing line of world-class NVRs, DVRs and encoders.

“We are excited about the introduction of NiceVision eXpress. NiceVision eXpress rounds out our NiceVision product line perfectly with a solution tailored to System Integrators who cater to the needs of customers with small and mid-sized projects,” said Chris Wooten, President, Security Division Americas, NICE. “We expect NiceVision eXpress to yield significant benefits for both Systems Integrators and customers. Customers at the entry level can get an enterprise-class video surveillance solution, and System Integrators can offer a premium, upgradeable, entry level solution at a competitive price.”

NiceVision eXpress is being introduced in NICE’s booth #1349 at the 2009 ASIS International 55th Annual Seminar and Exhibits in Anaheim, California. NiceVision eXpress will be made available to customers in North America through select Systems Integrators.

NeoPhotonics Announces FVOA8000 and FVOA8100 Variable Optical Attenuators (VOAs) at ECOC

These devices, the latest in NeoPhotonics’ line of MEMS based VOAs, are ultra compact devices that easily drop into any optical network application. All devices in the FVOA8000 family exhibit high speed operation, high dynamic range, high attenuation accuracy, low excess loss, low Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) and high off-state extinction.

The FVOA8000 is designed to operate for a single DWDM channel or a single wavelength at a time. The FVOA8100 exhibits all of the high performance of the FVOA8000 coupled with very low Wavelength Dependent Loss (WDL) across the entire C-band or L-band, making it ideal for applications where multiple DWDM channels must be attenuated simultaneously. The FVOA8100 exhibits the speed, low WDL, low PDL and high attenuation accuracy that make it ideal for use in optical amplifiers.

“We are pleased to offer our customers these new products that build on our extensive line of MEMS VOA products to provide enhanced performance in a more economical, compact package,” said Ben Sitler, Vice President of Sales at NeoPhotonics. “To date we have shipped over 300,000 MEMS based VOAs into the market and are excited about the prospects for the FVOA8000 family.”

Located at stand 613 in the Austria Centre, NeoPhotonics is showcasing, through the 23rd, the industry’s most complete portfolio of MEMS and PIC (photonic integrated circuit) based optical components, its broad line of telecom transceiver products in SFF, SFP and XFP form factors and new products for 40Gbps and 100 Gbps coherent optical transmission systems (announced September 18th).

CoreOptics Announces 40G VSR (Very Short Reach) Transponder Module

“Service providers are continuously looking for solutions that enable them to reduce the cost of their networks while enabling them to offer the same or higher degree of network performance to their end customers,” said Hamid Arabzadeh, Chairman of the Board, President and CEO for CoreOptics. “Utilizing CoreOptics own SERDES IC’s, we have developed the second generation of the 40G VSR product that will enable the lowest cost for router, OTN switches and Optical DWDM interfaces for the emerging 40G services.”

CoreOptics’ 40G/43G VSR transponder module is designed to provide a small form-factor (SFF) and low power dissipation for client-side network applications of up to 2 km and CD tolerance of 40 ps/nm. The CoreOptics’ VSR MSA transponder module uses advanced XLMD components and incorporates the company’s high performance 40G SERDES chipset, making it the only true second source product option available in the market today.

“Our focus is to continuously improve on the performance of our product offerings, utilizing CoreOptics’ IP in integrated circuits, as well as other new and improved reliable optical components,” said Hans Schiessl, VP of Research and Development at CoreOptics. “Our second generation 40G VSR product is based on our own 40G SERDES IC’s, as well as generally available XLMD components that enable us to offer the highest performance and the most reliable product to our customers.”

CoreOptics currently offers 10 Gb/s DWDM, 40 Gb/s Single Channel Short Reach and 40/43G DWDM transponder modules. The company’s product portfolio also includes 40G Serializer/De-serializer IC’s, 43 Gb/s Ultra-FEC, 40G Mux/DeMux for 4x10G client signals and Interface Converter supporting SFI-5s, SFI-4, XFI to enable building of next generation Open Tolerant Networks. Key benefits of these product platforms include reduction in first-in CAPEX, by eliminating the need for the conventional Dispersion Compensation Modules (DCMs) and Dual-Stage amplifiers. The OPEX savings include simplification of network planning, installation and provisioning by enabling a complete set of plug-and-play features.
