Pelco Joins Cisco Technology Developer Program, Completes Interoperability Testing

Pelco tells Security Magazine that it has joined the Cisco Technology Developer Program as part of the program’s Industrial Wireless Solution category. In addition, Pelco’s Spectra IV IP and IP110 Series cameras have successfully completed interoperability testing with the Cisco 1520 Mesh Access Point.

The Cisco Technology Developer Program (http://www.cisco.com/go/ctdp) unites Cisco with third-party developers of hardware and software to deliver tested interoperable solutions to joint customers. Members of the program share Cisco’s strong commitment to customer service and satisfaction and are required to undergo interoperability testing based on criteria set forth by Cisco. With Cisco Technology Developer Program member offerings such as the Spectra IV IP and IP110 Series, customers can more quickly deploy a broad range of Cisco Compatible business applications that can enhance the capabilities, performance, and management of their Cisco network.

The interoperability testing is designed to simulate typical customer configurations, and does not replace the need for on-site testing in conjunction with actual implementation.
