Genetec launches Cloudlink 2210

April 2026 Infrastructure, Surveillance

Genetec has launched Genetec Cloudlink 2210. Designed for complex, enterprise-scale deployments, the new cloud-managed appliance addresses the practical challenges enterprises face when adopting a cloud-managed model at scale, including cloud storage costs, support for existing devices that lack direct-to-cloud connectivity, and the need to maintain local operations during connectivity disruptions.

With a stackable, 2U rack-mount form factor, the Cloudlink 2210 enables large organisations to extend cloud-managed security across high-density, mission-critical environments without redesigning their existing infrastructure.

Like the rest of the Genetec Cloudlink line, the 2210 supports multiple workloads, including video management, access control, and intrusion, in a single appliance. Consolidating these workloads into a single appliance reduces system sprawl, simplifies management in large-scale environments, and lowers operational overhead.

Unlike solutions that separate workloads across multiple proprietary systems, Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is built on an open architecture that supports a wide range of third-party devices, including cameras, access control systems, and intrusion panels. This enables organisations to modernise at scale within a unified, cloud-managed model that preserves architectural flexibility, while securely integrating existing hardware, maintaining business continuity, and reducing migration risks.

“Enterprises do not want to choose between innovation and operational certainty,” said Christian Chenard Lemire, product director, Unified Solutions, Genetec. “With Cloudlink 2210, we are redefining what cloud-managed physical security looks like at scale by giving organisations the freedom to modernise on their own terms, control long-term costs, and maintain the resiliency and continuity their most critical environments demand.”

Designed for scale and flexibility

Cloudlink 2210 supports hundreds of connected devices per appliance and provides up to 240 TB of local storage per unit, making it well-suited for deployments with high device density and long retention policies. The Cloudlink 2210 is aimed at enterprise environments where uptime and local retention requirements are operational priorities, as its design minimises dependence on cloud storage, helping organisations control long-term storage costs, while maintaining the performance and availability required in such environments.

Cloudlink 2210 also incorporates hardware-level resiliency to support strict uptime and retention requirements. RAID-protected storage and redundant system components help ensure data protection and OS availability. Security workloads continue operating locally, independent of cloud connectivity, allowing deployments to maintain continuity even during network disruptions. Dual network interfaces provide redundancy and support network isolation, strengthening cybersecurity.
