3rdGeneration – Today & Beyond Network edge appliances, zero footprint software, no PC based server required – Vicon SMS! 2nd Generation - 1990s Windows based PCs, client/server environment, typical of most current product offerings 1st Generation - 1980s Pre-Windows Host-based systems, mini-computer base products using VAX or Unix and “dumb” video terminals. The Vicon SMS represents a truethird generation security platform!
Operational Advantages • Easily integrated into the corporate IT network and with business systems standards • Huge savings in the lifetime cost of ownership. • Familiar, easy to operate browser based user interface • Complete scalability where costs are directly related to complexity. • Long-range compatibility with other IP devices and subsystems • Geographic independence
Technical Advantages • Open Platform, open APIs • Secure, network based communications • No PC Servers => Network Appliance • No Software to buy or install for PC Clients => browser based • Power over Ethernet supplies data and power => reduce cabling and power supply requirements • No more expensive, antique proprietary systems

Data Security & Conformance to IT Standards Server to Nodes Data Security - Supports SHA-1 Authentication & Encryption Server to Browser - Supports Secure Socket Layer (SSL) - Self-generated certificate Any TCP/IP Wireless-Mesh Topology Minimal Bandwidth Impact - 100 bytes or less data packets Resides in the customer’s established network security environment for optimum protection
Superior TCO – Total Cost of Ownership Cost of acquisition is similar to or less than traditional 2nd generation products Cost of installation is significantly less than traditional 2nd generation products No PC based server cost, No PC based server required No database licensing cost No client software installation cost No client software licensing cost Completely Scalable, Building Block Panel Design Matches Site Requirements Utilize existing network Infrastructure Utilize Power Over Ethernet Infrastructure Implementation Cost of Ownership
Cost of operation is less by far Highly graphical; highly intuitive; browser-delivered user interface System access (with proper authorization) from any network connected workstation Cost of maintenance is the best of all! No Server software management, Windows upgrades, patches No PC-based Server replacement No Client Software maintenance, application upgrades, etc. Minimized moving parts (hard drive/fan) → very high MTBF Remote and collaborative maintenance capabilities Superior TCO – Total Cost of Ownership Operational Cost of Ownership
