Commend solutions certified for Lenel OnGuard

“Standing guard” to lend help and assistance when it’s needed is the essential purpose of every Commend Intercom solution.

Now, following certification through Lenel’s OpenAccess Alliance Program, Commend’s GE300/GE800 system also has the ability to interface with Lenel’s acclaimed OnGuard® security system, which has more than 65,000 installations worldwide. The newly certified add-on package enables the addition of powerful security functions to Commend solutions including:

• Access control
• Integrated digital video
• Alarm monitoring
• Automated motion and intrusion detection
• Asset tracking
• Integrated information security
• Staff and visitor management

The Commend and Lenel solutions complement each other, “not just in terms of security, but also where integration with third-party solutions is concerned,” explains Commend product manager Johannes Helminger.

To be able to meet required high security standards, systems must be certified annually to interface with Lenel’s OnGuard. As in previous years, the Commend GE300/GE800 system is fully certified with OnGuard 2013, thus supporting the entire range of extended security features.
