The S2 NetBox is a uniquely advanced integrated physical security management system. It is the first system to fully integrate the IP network with itsS2 Net Box network appliance architecture. The system provides credential-based access control, event and alarm monitoring, video surveillance, analog temperature monitoring, and VoIP communications through a set of locally intelligent network appliances. Control is through a network appliance that delivers a rich user interface using only a common web browser. The S2 NetBox fully distributes data to the network edget to maximize robustness.

Network Controllers are the brains that manage networks of end devices like card readers, input points, temeperature points, and so on. They provide the browser-based user interface, database management, and system management functions and are available in several sizes - all capable of operating a common set of edge devices. This fully networked approach vastly reduces installation cost and increases reliability. For even reater reliability, the S2 NetBox offers several models that are fully solid state, utilizing embedded software and solid state memeory. Larger systems offer moving storage protected by internal RAID.

The S2 NetBox is about geographic independence: the ability to manage any asset from anywhere that a network is available. The system requires very low network bandwidth, making it suitable for use on corporate networks. Security features built into the software and hardware assure that its safe to deploy systems across any network, even the public Internet. Security for remote locations is easily handled using S2 NetBox or the larger S2 NetBox XL.

The S2 NetBox is designed to deliver superior TCO - Total Cost of Ownership. Its browser-managed user interface requires no software installation or maintenance. Just plug it in and access your computer's web browser. Because it operates like a common web site, users adapt to its sophisticated features with minimal training. And, because there are no moving parts in our solid state models, an S2 NetBox can operate for years without maintenance of any kind. PC-based servers, on the other hand, require frequent maintenance - a fact that leads to a much higher cost of operation. But more than servers, PC-based clients with installed software can be a maintenance headache due to software incompatibilities and operating system updates. None of those problems exist for S2 NetBox owners.

Because of their network appliance architecture, S2 NetBox systems cost-effectively operates the smallest facilities throguh the largest enterprises. S2's snap-together integration approach uses auto-detecting hardware, real time graphics, and web standards to deliver amazing sophistication without the installation and management headaches that usually go with it.
