CHELMSFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Axis Communications, the global leader in network video, has been recognized by Security Sales & Integration for its AXIS T6101 Audio and I/O Interface in the miscellaneous security products category of the Most Valuable Product (MVP) Awards presented at ISC West 2018.

The AXIS T6101 Audio and I/O Interface is a stand-alone interface box with PoE and audio in/out extender. Integrators and end users can simply connect the AXIS T6101 Audio and I/O Interface box between an existing camera and switch, allowing the box to forward power and present advanced audio and I/O capabilities direct to the camera. This innovative feature provides seamless VMS integration that makes any existing camera installation appear as if it has possessed audio and I/O capabilities from the start. This allows integrators the flexibility to buy the right video product for their specific installation and end user’s needs, regardless of its built-in audio capabilities.

“We are honored to have the AXIS T6101 Audio and I/O Interface recognized for the MVP award at ISC West. The flexibility it provides helps customers to further personalize their security plan and we’re proud to be able to provide the integrator community a solution that has the latest, most advance audio and I/O capabilities with seamless integration processes,” says Fredrik Nilsson, VP, Americas, Axis Communications, Inc. “This win recognizes Axis’ commitment to making high quality products that are designed with integrators’ and end users’ needs in mind.”

The Most Valuable Product (MVP) Awards recognize products that make a substantial impact on integrators and were judged on innovation, functionality, competitive advantages, benefits to the installer or monitoring provider, and benefits to the end user. Security Sales & Integration held the Most Valuable Product Awards ceremony in an evening ceremony at The Venetian Hotel, Las Vegas during ISC West 2018 to recognize groundbreaking suppliers and manufacturers.

“Now in its fourth year, SSI’s Most Valuable Products Awards has solidified its standing as not only one of the most credible programs of its kind for the electronic security industry but also the greatest value for entrants,” says Security Sales & Integration Editor-in-Chief/Associate Publisher Scott Goldfine. “It’s overwhelming for security integrators to keep up with the thousands of products introduced annually. SSI’s MVP Awards provides integrators the valuable service of distinguishing particularly noteworthy new products, and salutes the manufacturers responsible for them. Both factions benefit by having entries evaluated by independent security integrators and industry consultants. Congratulations to this year’s finalists and winners — you’ve earned it!”
