Hills has announced the introduction of the Hills Video Security Professional IP Series to its security and surveillance portfolio, targeted to commercial and high-end residential use.

Hills Chief Technology Officer, Leica Ison says the Professional IP Series strengthens the company’s CCTV offering and follows the successful launch of Hills VSD1 in July this year.

“The new Professional Series consists of commercial grade and feature rich NVRs and IP cameras to suit professional installations. We’ve developed this solution after extensive research into customer needs,” she says. 

“All cameras in the range offer exceptional HD video footage through high quality three megapixel lenses. Low light illumination and true day/night technology provide optimal viewing capabilities in difficult conditions, especially night recording.”

Customers will have the option to purchase bullet, eyeball, dome or mini-dome cameras and a four, eight or 16 Channel NVRs, making the professional series perfect for commercial, retail, warehouse, and educational applications where users require differing scales of surveillance and monitoring.

The Professional IP Series has been designed to make it as easy as possible to install and operate the cameras and NVRs. Plug and play and Hills auto-config set up allows the NVR to be found online using a QR code – removing the need for port forwarding and saving integrators time and money. 

A mobile app for iPhones and Androids allows users to log on to see live footage from 4-16 cameras. It’s also simple to upgrade the NVR firmware once it’s installed through Hills’ new one-click process, over the network using the Hills Firmware server.
