Through this partnership, D-Link joins Tri-Ed / Northern Video's group of industry leading manufacturers offering IP, CCTV, access control, intrusion, sound, communications, structured cable, and home automation products. As the largest independent North American security distributor, Tri-Ed / Northern Video offers greater value and convenience for its customers and suppliers, with 46 locations across the U.S. and Canada.

"Tri-Ed / Northern Video prides itself on providing security integrators with industry-leading solutions from leading manufacturers, and D-Link is no exception," said James Rothstein, executive vice president of sales and marketing for Tri-Ed / Northern Video. "Through its breadth of products, end-to-end solutions and ease-of-integration in what is a rapidly growing market, D-Link offers our customers a wide range of solutions to meet their needs."

"D-Link is committed to the physical security market, designing its IP surveillance solutions with the features that meet customer requirements, including industry leading camera technology and best-of-breed software compatibility for easy integration into existing security platforms," said Albert Ling associate vice president of North America Business Development, for D-Link. "We are excited to offer our IP surveillance solutions through Tri-Ed / Northern Video, expanding our reach into this market and providing existing D-Link reseller partners with additional value."

Easy Transition to IP with Professional Services

The IP surveillance market continues to grow, with IMS Research forecasting IP cameras to outsell analog beginning in 2014(1). However, industry experts also recognize some security integrators are hesitant to make the switch from CCTV because they do not have expertise in IP networking. D-Link's Professional Services program provides a wealth of high-value presale, installation and post-sale support services, including access to experts who are uniquely qualified to assess a customer's application requirements and assist with simple and complex installations, including multi-location IP surveillance installations. Security integrators can leverage Professional Services for added profitability as they develop their own IP practice.

End-to-End Solutions Are Easy to Integrate

Known as the leader in IP networking(2), D-Link is the only company to offer small- to medium-sized businesses a complete end-to-end IP surveillance solution, including cameras, network switches, wireless access points and a variety of network storage solutions designed specifically with video archival in mind. Security integrators will benefit from the company's industry-leading camera technology, which includes feature-rich megapixel IP cameras in the most sought-after form factors including box, dome, bullet, cube, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) and speed dome. Further, D-Link recently announced the DSN-4000 series xStack® Storage iSCSI SAN Array family and the ShareCenter® Pro family of unified network storage solutions which are well suited for archiving video, and delivering performance, scalability and ease-of-deployment.

Tri-Ed / Northern Video customers will have access to D-Link's complete IP solutions portfolio, with products available in its U.S. and Canadian branch locations, beginning later this month. For more information about D-Link's IP surveillance offerings, visit http://ipsurveillance.dlink.com.
