Intercom system: what is it and why is it needed?
Our team talked to people and realized that there is some underestimation of the importance of the intercom system compared to other systems: alarm or video surveillance. The reason for this opinion is simple - lack of information about what an intercom system is, what numerous functions it can perform and how it will make your life easier.
Comfort
Isn’t it convenient to receive notifications on your smartphone from an alarm system that a pipe leak has been detected in the bathroom? Or about detecting smoke in the kitchen? Or about the end of the washing machine or dishwasher cycle? Or has the robot vacuum cleaner finished cleaning? Has this become commonplace and we will no longer remember how we lived differently?
The intercom system is no longer that faceless device that we are all accustomed to seeing at the entrance to the building. The main task of the intercom is to ensure the security of the premises and access control. Today, it can not only notify you of a call when you are at home, but also forward the call to your smartphone when you are not at home, and also send a notification that someone is at your door, even if this someone did not press call button. Recording by motion is possible in photo or video format; all these materials will be saved to the memory card of the video intercom and available for viewing at any convenient time. Nothing will go unnoticed by you.
Your apartment building has an old intercom system, but you want to install a modern one in your apartment. No problem! Answer calls and control the locks of both the entrance and apartment doors from your intercom without any additional archaic handsets.
Do you live in a private house with two gates and want to control the locks from the intercom? It's very simple: you can connect 2 calling panels and 2 cameras to Slinex video intercoms (except Slinex SQ-04). View video from cameras, communicate with visitors and open locks using calling panels without leaving your home.
You can’t do without an intercom even at work. Let's assume there are several offices on the floor of a business center. So what should we do? Should I install a separate calling panel for each? Install one stylish panel for 2,3 or 4 subscribers and the guest just needs to press the appropriate button to make a call.
There are about 250 employees in your office and there is no way to open the door for everyone separately. And it’s not necessary! Install a Slinex calling panel with a reader. Employees will be able to open the lock using a key fob or card, and guests will be able to make a call. If necessary, install a monitor in each office space and receive calls from the calling panel at the common entrance.
An intercom system is the best choice, for example, for night pharmacies or shops. The employee can clearly see the guest on the video intercom screen; it is possible to clarify what he needs without having to go to the door. The client, in turn, can consult, place an order, and clarify whether change will be needed. The intercom protects against unnecessary contacts and saves time!
For businesses that most often work by appointment (dentists, beauty salons, notary offices, etc.), an intercom system is the best means of access control. You will have the opportunity to view the guest from the calling panel camera and additional cameras, clarify the purpose of the visit and decide whether to let him in or not.
With the Slinex SL-10IPTHD video intercom, thanks to the “Quadrator” function, you can view video from all cameras and panels at the same time! Sonik 10 video intercom, thanks to the “Picture in Picture” function will allow you to view video from two channels simultaneously, and thanks to a separate relay on the monitor, you will be able to separately control the garage door without interrupting the conversation with the guest through the panel.
Video intercom is a smart adaptive device that can adapt to you. Do you want to get some sleep after a night shift or just a sleepless night? Set the intercom to “Do Not Disturb” mode and no one will disturb you. Don’t want someone to wake him up with a visit during your child’s nap? Or rang the doorbell early in the morning? Slinex intercoms have 3 sound modes for different times of the day. Set it up to your liking and rest easy.
Safety
As stated above, all safety systems are important. Let's imagine that the room has been broken into. The alarm system will be the first to signal this. Video cameras installed under the ceiling will give an understanding of how many people are there and what they look like, and a calling panel installed at face level will help to obtain more information to identify the malicious person.
Moreover, the systems can be integrated:
- calling panels with constant power can be connected directly to the DVR for round-the-clock recording, which makes them a full-fledged part of the video surveillance system;
- based on a video intercom, you can assemble an entire video surveillance system by connecting analog and IP cameras to it.
Do not neglect any security system, because only together they can guarantee your peace of mind.
