VIENNA, VA, Apr 07 (MARKET WIRE) --
VidSys, the leading provider of Physical Security Information Management
(PSIM) software that allows organizations to resolve business and
security situations in real time, today announced its partnership with
Harris Stratex Networks, Inc., a leading specialist in backhaul solutions
for mobility and broadband networks. Under the terms of this agreement,
Harris Stratex will utilize the VidSys RiskShield and Open PSIM Platform
for remote cell site infrastructure protection in under- and
newly-developed areas of the globe.
"We see significant demand in some parts of the globe for solutions to
secure energy related assets at the cell site premises," said Saswata
Basu, General Manager, Energy & Security Solutions, Harris Stratex
Networks. "The VidSys platform, when integrated with our ProVision(R) and
Netboss(R) network management platforms, enables us to be the first to
bring a scalable platform to manage energy, network, access control and
security aspects of cell sites. Generator, fuel, and copper theft are
recurrent problems, especially in Africa, and our partnership with Vidsys
complements our comprehensive energy and security offering for cell
sites."
Together, VidSys and Harris Stratex will target the cell site market by
offering a joint solution focused on infrastructure protection,
specifically in underdeveloped areas of the globe. Frequently, these newly
connected areas have skipped the wired-telecommunications phase, and gone
directly to cellular communications. By incorporating the VidSys PSIM
software system, which enables the integration, analysis and organization
of any number and type of sensors, security devices and systems, the
partnership will allow cellular operators to ensure that their investment
in physical assets is effectively monitored and protected.
"Harris Stratex is addressing a vast market opportunity -- as such, VidSys
is pleased to be involved with such a critical aspect of its cell site
solution," said Eric Sansonetti, vice president, worldwide sales, at
VidSys. "This global partnership demonstrates how our RiskShield product
and Open PSIM Platform integrates into a variety of environments, helping
companies like Harris Stratex mitigate risk, manage situations and protect
valuable assets."
