Arecont Vision Announces Advanced Channel Partner Certifications

Las Vegas, NV (April 6, 2011) - Arecont Vision, the industry leader in IP-based megapixel
camera technology, unveiled a new Advanced Channel Partner Certification here at ISC
West 2011. The certification program is designed to further educate security professionals on
how to effectively design video surveillance systems that incorporate the performance and
economic advantages that megapixel video technology provides.

“As the leader in IP-based megapixel technology, Arecont Vision is taking the lead in
megapixel education as well, to ensure systems are integrated by knowledgeable and skilled
installers,” said Jason Schimpf, Director of Partner Relations, Arecont Vision. “Our new
Advanced Channel Partner Certification Program will help better prepare channel partners
so they can maximize the cost benefits and added functionality of megapixel video.”
The Advanced Channel Partner Certification Program includes advanced training on
designing and installing megapixel camera systems. Attendees will also receive detailed
explanations of how Arecont Vision exposure/shutter controls work in varying light conditions,
how lighting and illumination affect megapixel cameras, and how to maximize H.264
bandwidth savings. Topics include pixel density (pixels on target), field-of-view, optics (what
to look for and why), sensors (and how they affect video quality, low-light performance and
field-of-view) and best practices for providing power to megapixel cameras.
The first two sessions will be held May 10-11 and June 14-15 at Arecont Vision's headquarters in
Glendale, California.

Another topic in the Advanced Channel Partner Certification Program sessions will cover the
impact of choosing megapixel cameras on network components such as routers, switches
and network infrastructure (fiber, coax and wireless). Also explained will be how various video
management system (VMS) platforms operate with megapixel technology, including how
Arecont Vision's MegaLab testing facility ensures effective integration with third-party
suppliers. Attendees will also learn how to properly calculate storage requirements and
choose the appropriate storage type for a megapixel system.
Breakout sessions will provide students hands-on opportunities to implement projects related
to session topics, thus ensuring that students fully understand how to design and specify a full
megapixel system.
