A new dummy dome has been launched by Bosch Security Systems as part of its FlexiDome camera range. The dummy is intended for use in applications where multiple, working models may already be installed, but where further deterrents may be desired. The product resembles the FlexiDome VF and is delivered, ready to install, with a Surface Mount Box. Each product has a three-year warranty."Although a dummy, the housing and mounting is such that real cameras can be added as required, either retrofitted as new, or ‘moved' from existing internal FlexiDome models.  This gives the customer greater flexibility," explains Dave Mulcahy, CCTV Product Manager, "as potential miscreants will not know which of the cameras is real, and may therefore think twice before taking action."

The Bosch MIC-ALM 8 Input Alarm Card is designed to work with a MIC Series power supply with a free expansion slot. The MIC-ALM card provides MIC Series cameras with eight alarm inputs, a washer pump drive function with test/pump priming capability and two additional relays which can be configured to operate external equipment when an alarm signal is received.

VG5-613-ECS from Bosch is a part its AutoDome 600 Series, which is easy to install PTZ cameras. The camera features day/night functionality for high quality images in low light conditions. The AutoDome delivers state-of-the-art technology and features that far exceed other PTZ cameras.

Easy expansion without additional investmentsSeamless integration of access control and video surveillanceSupports latest Video SDK and hybrid recordersBosch Security Systems doubles the capacity of the Access Easy Control System, its access control solution for small and medium sized applications. Through a firmware upgrade, the AEC panel now allows a second BUS connection adding 16 readers to the same controller, enabling each controller to support a total of 32 readers. It can now also monitor up to 32 supervised auxiliary inputs and control a maximum of 32 auxiliary relay outputs, doubling these figures as well.The new firmware v2.1.6.1 also makes it easier to seamlessly integrate access control and video surveillance for an additional layer of security. For this, the Access Easy Control System supports a maximum of 128 video channels with up to 3 channels per door. The new firmware now adds compatibility to the latest Bosch Video SDK that includes connections to Bosch 700 series DVR. This DVR is the first Bosch embedded digital recorder to offer hybrid functionality with support for 8 or 16 analogue cameras and up to 8 H.264 IP video streams. With up to 4 TB internal storage and optional RAID-4 protection, this 700 series was designed for applications that demand the highest levels of data availability.The new firmware allows customers to extend the area managed by the AEC without the need to buy additional controllers, lowering overall cost without sacrificing the system's ease of use. Being entirely web-based, the AEC can be managed locally or remotely using a standard web browser.

The VDx-240 Outdoor Dome range comes in robust, conduit compatible, all-weather housings (IP66 rated) and provides high-resolution (540TVL) images.
