We recently completed an exhilarating project in collaboration with Axis Communications, designed to enhance their Axis Q6010-E setup. This fun and challenging build involved creating a custom unit that integrates two-way audio and strobe lights, elevating the capabilities of the existing security system with the addition of Action-CS’s Exterior Active Deterrence Unit.
Integration at Its Best
The highlight of this project is its simplicity and efficiency—everything runs over a single Ethernet cable. This setup not only streamlines the installation process but also enhances the system’s reliability by minimizing potential points of failure. The inclusion of the Action-CS 100 watt horn adds a robust audio deterrent feature, capable of delivering clear and loud communications or warnings.
Custom Components for Superior Performance
To ensure seamless integration and optimal performance, we utilized a combination of custom parts from both Action-CS and Axis Communications. Here’s a breakdown of the components used in this project:
Action-CS Parts:
- Corner Bracket: Provides sturdy mounting and optimal positioning for the ADU.
- Wall Bracket: Offers additional mounting flexibility for different architectural needs.
- ACS Switch Card: Integrates power and data management into one central hub.
- ACS Exterior Ultra Power ADU: The core of our active deterrence, featuring high-powered strobe lights and two-way audio capabilities.
- ACS NPT Plate: Ensures secure and weatherproof connections.
- ACS-Horn (Bullhorn 📢): Delivers powerful audio alerts and communications.
Axis Communications Parts:
- Axis Q6010-E: Known for its high-resolution, full 360° panoramic views.
- Axis Q60-E PTZ: Allows for detailed zoom and enhanced surveillance coverage.
- Axis C8210: Enables network audio capabilities for any camera in the system.
A Seamless Collaboration
This project showcases the power of collaboration between Action-CS and Axis Communications, bringing together the strengths of both companies to create a pioneering security solution. By integrating our advanced deterrence technology with Axis’s cutting-edge cameras, we’ve crafted a system that not only enhances security but also offers greater operational efficiency and ease of use.
The success of this build demonstrates our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. We are thrilled to have delivered a product that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of modern security demands, providing our clients with a solution that is both powerful and user-friendly.
Looking Forward
As we reflect on the success of this project, we are excited about the future possibilities of integrating our technology with other leading players in the security industry. This collaboration with Axis Communications is just the beginning. We look forward to continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible in security technology, ensuring our clients have access to the most advanced solutions available.
At Action-CS, we believe in the power of partnership and innovation to create a safer world. Stay tuned for more groundbreaking projects as we continue to innovate and lead in the security industry.
