April 2016 News & Events, Surveillance, Integrated Solutions

Vivotek, a global IP surveillance provider, and Cathexis, a South African electronic and software systems development and manufacturing company, have announced a partnership in technology and integration. Both companies have worked closely and allocated resources into the integration of the latest H.265/HEVC solution, which delivers significant value to mutual customers and expands their project scalability in the South African and Middle Eastern markets.

To create comprehensive surveillance solutions and meet the diversified needs of users, Vivotek launched its Solution Integration Alliance (SIA) programme to effectively cooperate with global partners with different expertise in different areas. Through this programme, Vivotek and Cathexis offer seamless integration between Vivotek’s network cameras and Cathexis’ software platform.

“Cathexis prides itself in being responsive to its customers’ needs, and that is why we cooperate with Vivotek, a professional and flexible IP surveillance provider,” said Daryl Buhrmann, product manager, Cathexis Technologies. “The capability of our software to easily integrate deeply with partners’ products, like network cameras, access control, alarm and fire panels, fence monitoring systems, logistics scanning systems, and many others enable us to supply systems to our channel partners that offer holistic solutions beyond security.”

William Ku, vice president Brand Business Division, Vivotek said: “Today’s IP surveillance is ever-changing, and this announcement further reinforces Vivotek’s capability towards global partner integration. This partnership allows both companies to drive their engineering expertise and investments to deliver value for users in South Africa and the Middle East.”
