Industrial access control and security systems market to reach $38 billion by 2020, research forecasts


Integrated Access Control System

The industrial access control and security systems market was valued at around $25 billion in 2014 and is expected to reach $38 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 8.69%, a recent report by ResearchandMarkets has been able to reveal.

On the basis of systems the industrial security systems market is categorized into video surveillance systems, access control systems, and intrusion detection systems.

The video surveillance systems market is categorized into analog cameras, IP cameras, CCTV cameras, DVR, NVR, video encoders, and surveillance software; the access control systems market is classified into smart cards & readers, RFID tags, biometrics systems, Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) systems, vehicle tracking systems, automatic boom barriers, turnstiles, automatic swing gates, under vehicle inspection systems and electronic locks; the intrusion detection system consists of control panels, detectors, keypads, and accessories.

The market is driven by the growth in demand for security systems due to an increase in the rate of insurgent activities, globally. While, the lack of awareness about highly integrated security systems among the end users pose as the major restraint for this market.

Tensor industrial access control and security systems deliver superior peace of mind

Business owners who’re looking to improve their site’s security and prevent crime can do so by installing a comprehensive, high-end CCTV surveillance system, fully integrated with a secure and reliable Access Control solution.

Tensor has an extensive experience in both segments (CCTV and Access Control) and we are able to easily offer such an extensive level of functionality for all of our industrial access control and security systems.

As they’re built around the same cutting-edge technology platform, Tensor.NET, both the WinAC.NET and WinTA.NET suites support an extensive level of CCTV integration.

Video clips retrieved from CCTV cameras are associated with access control activity are available when CCTV is integrated with Tensor.NET.

The cameras are allocated to location entries created in Tensor.NET, which are then linked to smart card scanners or push buttons in the Hardware Manager. Furthermore, multiple cameras can be allocated to the same location, or multiple locations can be assigned to the same camera and lock sensors are connected directly to the CCTV’s DVR.

As a lock is released, an alarm event triggers the recording of video footage for the event. This footage is then available for playback in Tensor.NET, either by location or as a link in an access control report. Screen displays are provided to report upon access events, including links to play the related video clip.

Additionally, the application allows either live or historic video to be viewed for periods not linked to any specific Access Control event.

If you’d like to find out more about Tensor’s CCTV integration options, as well as the multiple useful features provided by our Time and Attendance and Access Control systems, just contact us or Book a Demo, we’ll be sure to answer all of your queries on the matter.
