Allied Telesis Holdings K.K. - Experts & Thought Leaders

Allied Telesis, a pioneer in intelligent networking, in partnership with Hanwha Vision America, announces the availability of a plug-in for Hanwha Vision America’s, Wisenet WAVE VMS system. As an extension of the two companies’ partnership announced earlier this year, the plug-in allows the Wisenet WAVE VMS administrator the ability to control and manage the Allied Telesis switches from a single pane of glass. This advancement streamlines security operations, mitigates risk, and improves uptime. Secure networking infrastructure The technology, which can be seen in action at the Hanwha Vision America’s booth (#1701) at GSX this week in Orlando, FL, gives end users the ability to mitigate camera issues and reduce truck rolls. This partnership combines the expertise of Allied Telesis in secure networking infrastructure with Hanwha Vision America’s cutting-edge video surveillance technology, enabling organizations to deploy highly secure and scalable surveillance systems. “We have always been at the forefront of innovating network security solutions. With this advanced plug-in, users of Hanwha Vision America’s Wisenet WAVE VMS platform are more armed than ever before to help avoid costly breaches and downtime. It’s truly the complete solution for simplifying network and IP camera management,” says Rahul Gupta, CTO at Allied Telesis. IP camera management Tom Cook, Executive Vice President of Sales & Operations, North America at Hanwha Vision America, added, “We’re excited to launch a plug-in that integrates Hanwha Vision America’s Wisenet WAVE VMS system with Allied Telesis’ networking solutions, offering a seamless end-to-end security and surveillance network. By engaging from the design phase, we ensure the solution is perfectly optimized for our customers’ needs. This collaboration sets a new standard for secure, reliable, and efficient network infrastructure.” Please note that currently this plug in is available for embedded units only. Windows version will be launched by the 1st quarter of 2025.

Allied Telesis, a global pioneer in connectivity solutions and intelligent networking tools, announces a strategic technology collaboration with Hanwha Vision America. Allied Telesis is integrating with Hanwha Vision America’s Video Management Software (VMS) plug-in, creating a complete solution for physical security and simplifying network and IP camera management for security applications. Secure and scalable surveillance This partnership combines the expertise of Allied Telesis in secure networking infrastructure with Hanwha Vision America’s cutting-edge video surveillance technology, enabling organisations to deploy highly secure and scalable surveillance systems. The collaboration will focus on integrating Hanwha Vision America’s Wisenet cameras with Allied Telesis industry-pioneering network switches and management software, providing customers with seamless interoperability and simplified management of their security infrastructure. Key highlights of the strategic alliance Interoperability Enhanced Security Scalability Simplified Management Reliable physical security solutions Commenting on the alliance, Rahul Gupta, CTO at Allied Telesis, said, “We are excited to partner with Hanwha Vision America to deliver integrated security solutions that combine the strengths of both companies." He adds, "By leveraging the secure network expertise of Allied Telesis and Hanwha Vision America's innovative surveillance technology, we can provide customers with reliable, scalable, and secure physical security solutions.” Best-in-class surveillance solutions Similarly, Tom Cook, Executive Vice President of Sales & Operations, North America at Hanwha Vision America, added, “This alliance with Allied Telesis underscores our commitment to offering customers best-in-class surveillance solutions that not only deliver exceptional performance, but also ensure the highest levels of security." He adds, "By working together, we can address the evolving security challenges facing organisations and empower them to protect their assets effectively.”

Allied Telesis will facilitate the centralised management of large and medium-sized surveillance networks by integrating ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) specifications with their Autonomous Management Framework (AMF) technology. Competition among manufacturers of network components and solutions has been extending into the growing surveillance market for some time. But to date, Allied Telesis is the only manufacturer of Ethernet switches that integrates the Profile Q protocol. This set of specifications for IP-based video systems and related management software aims at seamless interoperability and is likely to become an open industry standard. The integration into Allied Telesis network components is good news particularly for system integrators and service providers who want to support their customers’ camera and IoT networks with automated control, management, and maintenance. High level of automation There is much less need to hire additional personnel to run, control, and maintain the network environment “Automated, self-healing networks are crucial to the reliability and efficiency of any industry today,” says Graham Walker, VP Marketing at Allied Telesis. “No matter if you look at manufacturing, critical infrastructures, the health sector, retail or public governance – technologies are becoming more complex, especially in large, decentralised networks. Meanwhile, there is a significant lack of skilled operators and technicians. That’s why we are investing in solutions to simplify and automate everyday tasks, so our customers can benefit from lower cost, lower risk, easier networking.” Autonomous Management Framework (AMF) enables a high level of automation across many aspects of network operation, from asset management, customised configuration, detection, and troubleshooting to disaster recovery. As a result, there is much less need to hire additional personnel to run, control, and maintain the network environment. Commercial surveillance applications Within a surveillance network, organisations don’t have to call a service technician each time one of the IP-camera fails: If an automatic reboot doesn’t help, any employee can replace the device, just by getting it in position and pressing the “On” button. After that, the AMF management platform takes care of the connection, configuration, and integration into the network. Reports and references by Allied Telesis’ partners and their customers from industries such as Automotive, Electronics, ITC, or Power Grids state that the use of AMF helps them to dramatically reduce the operation and administration costs of their sizable networks. The pilot projects currently underway with manufacturers of IP-cameras and surveillance service providers are expected to demonstrate an impressive range of benefits for commercial surveillance applications.
