STENTOFON offers advanced integration with CCTV and Public Address systems. Since the introduction of IP technology, STENTOFON is also integrating on a software based level with protocols such as OPC, .NET and SIP.

OPC Software

Using cameras in combination with audio allows security to make sound judgments based on what they see and hear. STENTOFON’s OPC Server Software makes it possible to combine intercom with CCTV using standards based on integration with OPC (Open Connectivity via Open Standards) and Microsoft.NET. This method greatly reduces implementation time and cost of system integration.

Cell monitoring

By a combination of light signaling, scream alarm and CCTV, the prisoners are constantly monitored in a passive way. This means that the minute an irregularity occurs, e.g. an attack on the prisoner, the scream alarm will activate the intercom station. The CCTV camera linked to this station over OPC will automatically be activated and the video window appears on the guard’s PC screen. The sound is activated and the light installed outside the prison cell will shine red to indicate that there is a problem in the cell.
