Ensure you are designing the most effective transmission network

The job of the Security Integrators at the highest level is simple, design a security system that utilizes the best products from multiple manufacturers, while being cost-effective and that accomplishes a security-related task, be it surveillance, access control, intrusion and so much more. Simple on paper, but it never seems to be that simple. The common element or the piece that keeps it all together is the transmission system. Most transmission is Ethernet-based. The Promise of Ethernet is the ease of integration. IEEE 802.3 standards confirm everything is supposed to operate seamlessly, but that’s rarely the case. But what type of Ethernet media? Do you need fiber optic for extended distance and superior bandwidth? Are you using existing coaxial cable and Cat 5e and need a longer transmission distance? Is there a part of the design where you can’t add cable and wireless Ethernet is a better option? How are you going to manage all that traffic on your network? PoE offers system design benefits but presents new challenges. Rugged operating environments require hardened products, so how can you be sure the products you choose are up to years of extreme environments? Does the country of origin influence what products you can choose? As with any installation, there are dozens of variables that arise and must be considered.

There is a better way

One way around those challenges is to find a transmission product manufacturer that can offer all the transmission products you require, including fiber optic, copper, and wireless Ethernet media plus all different options of port-count managed and unmanaged switches, PoE PSE, and more. One company, AMG Systems of CT and the UK can be the source. AMG manufactures all their network transmission products from facilities in the UK and delivers those products from Trumbull CT. One of the major benefits AMG can offer is interoperability testing. AMG continuously tests its products with major product manufacturers to ensure interoperability. In addition, the AMG Design Center Service will work with you to design your transmission network and can even pre-test the products you need, ensuring they operate as designed. AMG continuously tests our products to work with the industry’s most respected brands and makes those reports available on amgsystems.com. AMG products are all NDAA/TAA compliant, which means they can be used in any government project where there is a restriction on products manufactured in Asian countries.

Another benefit to working with AMG is a quality level unequaled by any other transmission product manufacturer here in the US. AMG manufactures our products in an ISO 9001-certified facility in the UK. ISO certification means the product you specify today will last long on into the future, reducing downtime and unexpected costs. If a challenge does arise, AMG backs our products with a lifetime warranty ensuring your transmission system performs as designed. AMG products are new designs, using the latest components. These smart designs translate to cost-efficient manufacturing and that means AMG products are some of the most cost-effective solutions available today. AMG products are designed to meet NEMA standards and operate in the harshest environments where temperature extremes and shock, vibration, and humidity are encountered.
