Access Control Systems

Enterprise-class, feature-rich S2 access control systems integrate credential-based access control, intrusion detection and video security applications for a unified management and administration experience. 100% web based, these IP networked systems require no software installation or client license fees. Flexible system architecture allows for a range of applications from single sites to globally distributed physical security management systems. S2 building access control systems also integrate with legacy access control systems, allowing for easy upgrades.

Our flagship access control product, S2 NetBox, was an industry first with its solid-state design, browser-delivered system management, intuitive user interface and ability to integrate with other best-of-breed manufacturers. The entire S2 access control product line continually benefits from our commitment to innovation, with over 20 software versions released since 2004.

S2 IP access control system architecture maintains a complete database on an S2 Network Controller and distributes the data to S2 Network Nodes (portals) supporting one or two readers, assuring that the access control capabilities function during network outages.

Video Management Systems

S2 video management systems offer tight integration of video with access control and event monitoring for users of S2 access control products. The systems incorporate an IP video server, NVR and advanced video forensics. Flexible system architecture allows for a range of applications from single sites to globally distributed physical security management systems.

Real-time video surveillance is integrated into the desktop of the associated S2 NetBox or S2 Enterprise controller through a web browser. No software installation or client license fees are required.

S2 video management systems integrate with most common IP cameras. The browser-based desktop can be customized to display multiple camera views as well as the real-time activity log with access control and intrusion alarm events. By clicking on an icon in the real-time activity log, users can instantly play back recorded event video. Live video views are also integrated into floorplan graphics.

With S2 advanced video forensics, searching for video of interest is a snap. It takes just seconds to locate and review recorded video using the Forensic Desktop and then save clips to the case library.

Converged Systems

S2 converged systems tightly integrate S2 enterprise-class security management system software with the S2 video management system, incorporating access control, an IP video server, NVR and advanced video forensics. Flexible and expandable, converged systems are ideal for a range of applications from small, independent organizations to field offices of large enterprises.

Using only a web browser, S2 converged systems deliver unified system management and administration. Access control logs, event monitoring, and video surveillance are seamlessly integrated throughout the system and optimized for ease of use. For example, by clicking on an icon in the real-time activity log, users can instantly play back recorded event video.

S2 converged systems can benefit sites with as few as eight cameras and eight access control portals, and grow with the organization as requirements change. For larger, distributed installations, multiple S2 converged systems can be tied to a single S2 Global controller.
