The VL-G201 vandal-resistant video intercom system introduced by Panasonic (UK) incorporates an infrared LED that enables clear, accurate viewing for any installation – 24 hours per day

A safe, reliable and convenient way for security managers to protect their company’s premises comes in the form of Panasonic (UK)’s all-new VL-G201 video intercom system. Connection to an electronic locking system allows visitors to be granted access (or not!) at the touch of a button.

The system incorporates a discreet camera that boasts “excellent visibility” and a wide angle of view – enabling end users to see a large area and assess who’s present. In awkward locations, the camera may easily be repositioned to create the maximum viewing range.

Equipped with a rugged metal outer body, the hard-wearing casing of the VL-G201 is designed to discourage weathering, vandalism and daily wear-and-tear. The system is activated by a simple button control which, when pressed, delivers a subtle chime to the colour monitor within the Control Room or reception area. The button features a blue backlight, ensuring that the system is every bit as effective during both day and night-time use.

Images are observed on a 2.5” integrated LCD monitor equipped with automatic brightness compensation and an infrared LED to enable clear, accurate viewing.
