The Milestone XProtect Access Control Module offers a new and more efficient way to operate access control and video surveillance systems through a unified interface, the XProtect® Smart Client. The ability to tie video and access events together in this way greatly improves the speed and efficiency of incident investigations and response.
Unified ease of use
Providing the primary and most commonly used access control functions as an integral part of the XProtect Smart Client interface, the XProtect Access Control Module 2014 eliminates the need for users to work with disparate independent systems. This makes it possible to integrate different access control systems within the same XProtect customer installation.
The XProtect Smart Client provides a consolidated interface for operating integrated access control systems with dedicated functions:
- effectively monitor access events
- manually assist passages
- conduct investigations of specific access points or cardholders
- easy video evidence exporting
- generate reports
The extended integration capabilities in the Milestone Integration Platform Software Development Kit (MIP SDK) 2014 are the enabling factor behind the easy and flexible integration between third-party access control systems and Milestone video management solutions.
“With XProtect Access Control Module 2014 customers now have the freedom to choose from a wide array of access control vendors with the peace-of-mind that it will work seamlessly with the XProtect software,” says Christian Bohn, Milestone Systems VP Corporate Marketing & Alliances. “Milestone partners get the advantage of a pre-integrated solution that only requires on-site configuration - this is a major time saver. And it is easy to integrate new third-party access control systems with the MIP SDK 2014. The Milestone partner ecosystem is responding very positively to these new possibilities: Axis, Bolid, Bosch Security Systems, IMRON, Isonas, Open Options, Paxton, and a host of other leading access control providers are working with the XProtect Access Control Module 2014, further showcasing the industry uptake of our open platform technology.”
The XProtect Access Control Module 2014 is compatible with:
- XProtect®Corporate 2014
- XProtect® Expert 2014
- XProtect® Enterprise 2014
- XProtect® Professional 2014

XProtect Access Control Module 2014 is available through all Milestone partners and will be demonstrated at ASIS (Milestone booth #1043 and Security Essen (Milestone Hall 2, #216).
