Axis
Opens New Office in Moscow
Axis
Communications has announced that the company is opening a new sales office
in Russia (Moscow). There is great interest in network video in the region
and by establishing a local office, Axis strengthens its presence on a
market with development potential. In connection to this, the company
also announces that the installation in Moscow Metro today comprises more
than 3 000 Axis network video products and has potential for further installations.
By establishing a local office, Axis strengthens its presence on the Russian
market. In Russia, one can see great potential for network video within
new construction in particular, but also in transport and retailing as
well as industry. Business on the Russian market has been conducted from
the office in Lund for many years.
'The region has great potential. The growing markets in Russia make high
demands on security within the public and private sectors', says Ray Mauritsson.
Axis network cameras and Axis video servers are now installed at three
of the Moscow metro's 12 lines. The network video products are part of
an integrated security system aimed at improving safety and security for
passengers and staff on the subway trains. Allowing remote access to video
on the moving trains, the products enable visual verification of alarms
and quick responses by security personnel to any event. Moscow metro's
video surveillance installation has been conducted by Axis' partner and
systems integrator, Metrokom.
'I'm pleased that Axis has received an additional order from the Moscow
Metro. I see the additional order as a confirmation of the high quality
and functionality of the previously installed products,' says Ray Mauritsson,
President of Axis Communications.
