Fusing old, new alarm systems gets boost with receiver
Article Abstract:
The University of North Carolina in Wilmington, where the University Police Department's proprietary central monitoring station must manage 72 alarms on the 650-acre campus, is replacing the alarms with 9500 Desktop Receiver and 9540 Series Automation Software from Silent Knight Security Systems of Maple Grove, MN. The 9500 Desktop Receivers enables existing control panels to send signals to the remote central station, and use the new generation panels with more specific and advanced format protocol. The receiver's plug and play features also allows it to be expanded from a single to a dual line receiver.

"Harmonization" at work: From RCA to Burle to Philips
Article Abstract:
Philips Communication & Security Systems of the Netherlands merges its lines with those of Burle Industries, which the company acquired in 1995. The companies' product color schemes and model numbering systems are being modified and blended to produce a "contemporary, recognizable identity for Philips products and systems." The company started its harmonization strategy shortly after it acquired Burle. It slowly phased out the Burle brand and started putting together the two brand names in Philips products and ads. In 1997, the company started making the Philips name more prominent than the Burle name.
