We are delighted to announce that Concept Pro is undergoing an extensive, deep-level integration with the industry-leading VMS provider, Network Optix (Nx).
This collaboration marks a significant milestone for the Concept Pro ecosystem, bringing our advanced hardware and the renowned Nx Witness VMS together into one seamless, professional solution.
This integration covers our entire range, including our full suite of IP cameras, thermal technology, the market-leading AI Bridge, and crucially our complete range of recorders.
Full Brand Integration:
Concept Pro hardware with Professional VMS
The strength of this partnership lies in the technical depth of the integration. We have ensured that the most sophisticated features of the Concept Pro range are fully accessible and native within the Nx Witness environment
Camera Compatibility
Full, plug-and-play support for the Concept Pro camera range, ensuring effortless setup combined with the superior image quality of Concept Pro range of IP cameras
Deep AI Analytics with the AI Bridge
Our AI Bridge is now fully integrated to Nx. Object classification and full suite of metadata are passed directly into the VMS as actionable events, allowing for near-instant forensic searching and automated alerts.
Thermal Intelligence
Our thermal cameras are now deeply integrated. Thermal triggers and temperature threshold events are delivered natively to the Nx platform, ensuring critical alerts are never missed and can be managed within the standard VMS workflow
A Professional VMS for Concept Pro Recorders
Our full suite of recorders is undergoing deep integration with Nx Witness. This provides a high-end, professional VMS solution that utilises Concept Pro recording hardware as the backbone, offering a more sensible and cost-effective way to deploy VMS software.
Concept Pro Recorder Integration
The most significant commercial benefit for our partners and end users is the integration of the suite of Concept Pro recorders
By utilising the recorder for storage and processing, we have removed the traditional requirement for expensive, high-specification servers on each site. This provides a lower-cost route to a professional VMS. This also provides a cost effective and clear upgrade path for existing estates that are looking to modernise and expand capabilities
1.Modernising Existing sites
For sites currently running Concept Pro recorders, the transition to a modern VMS is now clear and cost-effective:
Utilise existing equipment & infrastructure
There is no need to redo the installation or rip out functional kit. Your existing Concept Pro recorders remain in situ, acting as the storage for the VMS deployment
No Server Requirement
Eliminate the need to purchase, rack, and maintain expensive Windows or Linux servers. The NVR handles the heavy lifting.
Seamless Migration
Move your customers to a market-leading UI without the need for a high-CAPEX hardware overhaul or extensive site downtime.
2.Cost Effective Deployments for new sites
For new installations, using a Concept Pro NVR for storage and video processing provides a enterprise-grade experience at a lower cost as servers are not required on each site:
NVR hardware with VMS software
Combine the robust and familiar nature of an NVR with the world-class Nx interface to manage multiple sites and large estates
Significant Cost Savings
By removing dedicated servers, you reduce initial project costs and minimise complexity
Why Move to a Professional VMS?
A VMS provides a unified, highly scalable architecture that allows you to manage hundreds of sites and thousands of cameras through a single, intuitive interface.
The primary advantage lies in the sophisticated handling of data and central monitoring. The platform offers fast forensic search capabilities and advanced alarm management. This fundamentally changes the user experience, allowing operators to pinpoint specific incidents in and secure and share the footage quickly, conveniently and securely
Furthermore, this integration provides a superior level of operational control and future-proofing. Key benefits include:
Centralised Management
Manage multiple geographic locations from one central workstation or mobile app, ensuring total oversight of the entire estate.
World-Class Cyber Security
Benefit from a platform designed with security at its core, featuring automated encryption and robust protection against evolving digital threats.
Access & Auditing
Utilise advanced user permissions to manage exactly who can view specific feeds, while maintaining comprehensive audit logs of all system activity for total transparency.
Future Proof
A future-proof platform that grows with your requirements, allowing for easy integration with third-party systems such as access control, intruder alarms, and thermal monitoring.
