KeyPad Plus: Contactless system control without compromise on reliability
In order to make security system management as simple as possible, contactless identification function was integrated into a keypad. The new wireless KeyPad Plus supports encrypted access devices: Ajax Pass and its compact version Tag. To change the security mode, a user just needs to present an access device to KeyPad Plus. These devices are equipped with an original DESFire® chip. It is a best-in-class contactless identification technology used by transport systems in European capitals and NASA access systems.
The combination of KeyPad Plus and Ajax Pass or Tag provides users with encrypted contactless identification and minimizes false alarms caused by errors when entering a passcode.

MotionCam Outdoor: Photo verification of alarms for outdoor security
Photo verification becomes a new norm in the security industry. This practical way of countering false alarms helps security companies and police significantly reduce unnecessary patrol dispatches. The new wireless outdoor motion detector with a camera — MotionCam Outdoor — recognizes a threat instantly and sends an animated series of photos in any weather, day or night.
MotionCam Outdoor takes photo verification to a dramatic new level. The best optics with HDR camera and IR backlight produces clear and sharp images. That helps a monitoring station operator to respond correctly in any circumstances.
