Grandstream Surveillance Buyer's Guide - Manual (Page 28)

• Connect existing security sirens to the alarm outputs so that
when a camera paired to the GVR3550 triggers an alarm, it
notifies the siren and the siren goes off
• Connect existing motion or door sensors to the alarm inputs
so that if the motion/door sensor goes off, the GVR3550 can
trigger its other alarms and alarm notifications
• Connect existing intercoms microphones to the audio input
to allow the audio to be played through connected speakers,
through the speaker on a camera or to a speaker connected
to the camera
• Connect speakers to the audio output
Once these devices are connected to the GVR3550, users need to
login to the product’s user interface to tell the GVR3550 what to do
when an alarm is triggered by a 3rd party device. The Alarm Action
section of the Web UI is where these features would be setup.
Conclusion
Protecting physical assets and people using video surveillance will
continue to play out in boardrooms and conference rooms as busi-
ness owners and executives assess risk management strategies and
other programs aimed at detecting intrusion, preventing loss, reduc-
ing theft, etc. With declining prices and rapid technology advance-
ment, the adoption of IP video surveillance over analog CCTV is
experiencing tremendous growth within large enterprise and SMBs
alike. IP’s open source platform allows businesses to easily add and
run video surveillance applications onto the existing VoIP/SIP net-
work for reduced costs, productivity and customer service enhancing
solutions.
Grandstream is one of the few providers in the marketplace that,
in addition to offering a complete portfolio of voice solutions like IP
PBXs, desktop phones and videophones, also markets an extensive
line of indoor and outdoor HD cameras, decoders/encoders, VMS
and NVR products. Everything a business needs to migrate existing
video cameras or add newer HD cameras to the business mix for a
sophisticated physical security/video surveillance solution.
It’s no longer complicated or necessary to hire an outside consultant
to recommend, install, monitor and maintain video surveillance.

wherever and whenever is necessary. Real-time or recorded moni-
toring of camera video feeds at any location in the network world-
