Through this agreement, ScanSource Security will offer Imtramsa's VideoAppliance, which is a rack-mounted server/storage unit. The unit comes pre-loaded with video management software (VMS), which allows for video monitoring, recording and event management. With the addition of Intransa, ScanSource Security can now offer a total end-to-end solution for resellers, including cameras, video monitoring software, switches, servers and storage.

"We look forward to providing Intransa's video surveillance solutions to our dealers, as they continue to look for ways to enhance their solution offering to their end-user customers," said Paul Constantine, vice president of merchandising, ScanSource Security, in a statement. "By offering Intransa's video appliance products, along with our value-added services, such as setting up IP addresses on IP cameras and video encoders, we hope to streamline the installation process for our dealers by helping them configure the cameras, while Intransa preloads the VMS software."

"We're very pleased to be working with ScanSource Security, truly a leading distributor of physical security products," said Jonathan Perkins, vice president of sales, Intransa. "We will be in very good company with their portfolio, and our mutual customers will benefit strongly whether for a single appliance in a retail store or bank branch, or for a multi-location surveillance solution."
