From supportive to essential: Smart managed switches in security systems

Network switches have traditionally played only a supporting role for device network interoperability. But now, as the security market picks up the pace toward more intelligence and wider integration, network switches are expected to take on more powerful tasks, ensuring entire systems integrate and operate efficiently. And, in complex security networks especially, a more advanced management approach is required to guarantee optimal performance for all connected devices.

 

Smart managed switches, managed through a web browser or a mobile app, allow users to do several things: quickly install devices, make configuration changes that suit their network needs, and get remote and visualized accessibility. These capabilities improve users’ control over their security networks for boosted functionality and reliability. So how are they different from conventional switches?

 

Elevated safety through reduced downtime

 

Smart managed switches enable users to monitor network health and receive real-time alerts indicating network or device breakdowns to foster quick response. For example, when the bandwidth consumption exceeds a pre-set threshold, alarm notifications will be sent immediately so installers can begin troubleshooting. And, the sweetest part of the features, users can locate and resolve network irregularities remotely to bolster service continuity and stability, anytime and anywhere. This equips personnel with helpful operational advantages, minimize downtime loss, and deliver optimal system safety and functionality.

 

Simplified installation and management

 

Smart managed switches also go beyond plug-and-play connectivity in making installation easier and faster. The web-based feature makes them more flexible in supporting remote configuration, operation, and maintenance of the entire system, either through a software platform or over a mobile app. Furthermore, the intuitive web-client interface gives users an at-a-glance view of security systems of connected devices to streamline management including adding or searching devices.

 

Hikvision’s smart managed switch solution on Hik-Partner Pro

 

Hikvision’s Smart Managed Switches are security system-dedicated, mobile app-managed switches on Hikvision’s uniquely designed mobile app Hik-Partner Pro. With Hik-Partner Pro, video management and network management converge into a visualized management platform that accommodates several types of devices: switches, cameras, alarms, access control components, video intercoms, and more.

 

Such a solution helps to centralize and visualize management in nearly all Hikvision IP devices, enabling users to deploy and manage entire security systems quickly because so much can be done remotely – from a smartphone, if needed. This translates to nearly effortless maintenance for installers, even on sophisticated systems, as they can promptly respond to network abnormalities in real-time. Along with that, the stable, reliable, long-term operation of these switches reduces labor costs for installers who otherwise would be engaged in system upkeep, maintenance, or replacement. These advantages optimize installers’ work schedule and help ensure high levels of reliability in the eyes of customers.

 

Another beneficiary here is the small to medium-sized enterprises that require streamlined network management along with remote security management and troubleshooting. It truly stretches the ROI for them and is a big boost in getting them more equipped for long-term growth.
