Five Reasons to Use FLIR Saros DH-390 Dome Camera to Grow Your Remote Monitoring RMR

Progressive security integrators are constantly on the lookout for ways to increase security for their customers while also growing the value of their business. At the end of the day, they often evaluate new offerings from the perspective, “how will this service or solution help me make more money?”

As integrators face ongoing pressure to reduce margins on video surveillance equipment, new innovative ways to drive profits and increase their business valuation must be uncovered to keep the business healthy. Customers have shown a desire to pay for products and services that can produce measurable results, showing increased security or reduced overall expenses.

Deter Vandalism and Theft

Remote video monitoring of commercial properties is proving to increase security and produce a measurable return on investment. For integrators, providing video monitoring as a service is a great way to solve customers’ greatest pain points and drive recurring monthly revenue (RMR). More customers are asking for solutions that deter incidents of vandalism and theft on their construction sites, car dealership lots, remote storage facilities, educational facilities, and boat yards, among others. Thanks to major improvements in outdoor surveillance cameras– which feature greater edge processing and more reliable intrusion detection capabilities– this is possible.

Multiple Technologies All-in-One

The FLIR Saros DH-390 Dome Camera is a prime example of these advancements. Combining multiple perimeter technologies into a unified solution that integrates with central monitoring station platforms, Saros DH-390 features dual FLIR Lepton® thermal sensors, a 1080p or 4K camera, IR and visible LED illuminators, advanced onboard analytics, two-way audio, and digital I/Os. This multispectral camera, backed by FLIR’s superior thermal technology, provides 24-hour wide area monitoring, accurate classification analytics, and enhanced visual verification.
