For some time, Speco Technologies has integrated their NR series recorders with Speco access for live view and video tagging in their browser-managed access software. Now, Speco Technologies is integrating their access control and NR series recorders through hardware as well. N8WA42TB and N8WA4P2TB takes Speco’s patented wall-mount NVR and adds an access controller into the same housing to make two factor authentication simple.
The 8 Channel NRE Advanced Analytics NVR located inside the wall mount chassis operates normally. You can run a mouse and either an HDMI or VGA cord from the NVR to your monitor to access and set up each Advanced Analytic within the NVR. These analytics include Facial Recognition, Human & Vehicle Detection, Line-Crossing, as well as License Plate Recognition.
Located above the NVR board is a 4-door Speco Technologies access controller. This access controller is loaded as a server with the NVR license already applied. Speco Technologies also includes a switch and Cat5e patch cables from both the NRE and the controller. All devices are powered from the same power supply. For maximum efficiency, simply plug in an ethernet cable to the switch and connect to power and you are ready to begin setting up your devices.
This all-in-one unit is unlike any other product on the market today. The combination of our Access Controller integrated into the same housing as our 8 Channel NRE provides the user with incredible value. From ease of instillation to managing the unit in the future, Speco Technologies has the product to tackle any issue.
The benefits of combining the NVR and Access Controller into one unit has many benefits. First, it makes 2-factor authentication easier than ever. As opposed to other Access/NVR configurations, you only need a foot or two of wire from the NVR to the controller to wire the system to successfully recognize a face before allowing a credential to be scanned. Additionally, the discreet wall mount configuration not only frees up storage space, but provides an extra security measure. The wall mount configuration allows for the NVR and access controller to be hidden in plain sight, or even in a storage closet or another inconspicuous location. Additionally, the wall mount housing is able to double as a marketing piece, and Speco Technologies has the ability to custom brand the can with any logo or warning sign at the request of the user.
In addition to being convenient, N8WA42TB and N8WA4P2TB make any installation and usage incredibly simple. With this two in one unit, the process has never been simpler. Only one power receptacle is in use for three units, and the recorder can be customized for up to 16TB of storage. Wire the unit for two-factor authentication with ease or set up a license plate camera to trigger a gate to open.
Another benefit afforded to customers is that the Access Control software is completely browser-based, removing the need for additional software downloads before use. Users can simply view the page on any supported browser in just seconds. Additionally, while using browser-based software, there is no need for dedicating a computer to control the system. This eliminates compatibility issues as well, which saves the integrator time by not having to wait for PCs to be updated and spending less time with the IT department.
Additionally, the integration of this unit with the Speco Access mobile app is a key benefit for installers and end users. The app allows you to conduct live viewing from a remote location and allows for you to set up card holders and credentials from your phone. Furthermore, you are afforded the ability to lock and unlock doors, as well as change the threat level of the system, all from the palm of your hand.
