VSI Viscount (www.viscount.com) and the IP Device Edge Alliance (IDEA) will be sponsoring a special event during ASIS 2007. At 9:30 am, Monday, September 24, VSI (Booth 497) will host a memorial service to commemorate the impending passing of access control panels as the de facto standard for physical security. The service will be followed by an open bar and control panel wake for the duration of ASIS 2007.

“The advent of powerful edge devices that can be managed by servers is demonstrating that costly Access Control Panel middleware is becoming obsolete,” noted Stephen Pineau, president and CEO of Viscount Systems. “We decided that it was time to officially lay the old technology to rest in a fun yet dignified fashion.”
