by Shane Henson — December 21, 2011—Infinova, a U.S.-based security products manufacturer, is poised to become an even bigger player in the global video surveillance industry through its recent acquisition of March Networks.
March Networks is a leading provider of intelligent Internet protocol (IP) video solutions. For more than a decade, the company has helped some of the world’s largest commercial and government organizations transition from traditional closed-circuit television (CCTV) to advanced surveillance technologies used for security, loss prevention, risk mitigation and operational efficiency.
March Networks’ highly scalable and easy-to-use Command video management platform incorporates a Web-based client interface to enable rapid system deployment and complete system control. It is complemented by the company’s portfolio of high-definition IP cameras, encoders, video analytics and hybrid recorders, as well as outstanding professional and managed services. March Networks systems are delivered through an extensive distribution and partner network in more than 50 countries.
“The combined companies create one of the 10 largest global players in the video surveillance industry and is well positioned for the expected industry consolidation over the next five years,” said Peter Strom, president and CEO of March Networks. “Infinova offers March Networks a broader geographic footprint, access to the world’s fastest growing market, and a complementary fit with our respective product lines. This deal is consistent with our strategy to accelerate growth and expand in the Asian market.”
