Greenville, SC – September 6, 2016 Paxton, leader of electronic IP access control and door entry solutions has announced the integration of its networked access control system, Net2, with Milestone Systems. The integration allows the user to display access control events and monitor video surveillance cameras from the, Milestone XProtect Smart Client.
Paxton has developed a plugin using Milestone’s MIP SDK 2016, that can be added to the Milestone XProtect (VMS) linking Paxton Net2 access control information to the Milestone XProtect Smart Client interface.
