Oplink Offers Mobile Interactive Security Solutions For Homes And Businesses On The Verizon Wireless Network

FREMONT AND WALNUT CREEK, CA — Oplink Mobile Interactive (mi) Security and Verizon Wireless are collaborating to provide security solutions to Verizon Wireless business customers.

The Oplink Security system is a total solution-in-a-box home and business security alert platform that provides real-time and remote video alert and surveillance services via the Oplink mi Security app (iOS and Android).  The system is self-configured and can be installed within minutes of connecting to the Internet.

Oplink’s Plug-Activate-N-Play™ home and business security system notifies customers of security sensor triggers from multiple home and business locations through smartphone alerts.  The platform includes optional power solutions for extra protection and also accommodates multiple users and emergency contacts.

“Our collaboration with Verizon Wireless is an important step in making Oplink’s mobile cloud-based security and automation platform available to mobile consumers and businesses.  Oplink has successfully leveraged our terabit optical transport, switching and amplification technology leadership to launch an important mobile interactive security and automation solution,” said Joe Liu, CEO of Oplink Communications.

Oplink offers three different home security packages that can be paired with a Verizon Wireless connection:

• Oplink AlarmShield™ Intrusion Alert System ($299) provides peace of mind to homeowners by using motion and contact sensors to monitor the home when it’s unoccupied.  Users can receive an email or text when alarm events happen at home as well as when the children arrive home from school.  The kit includes an Oplink Processing Unit (OPU), a siren, motion, door, window and cabinet contact sensors.
• Oplink VideoShield ™ 2-Camera Surveillance System ($399) provides real-time video streaming and surveillance functions.  Users can simultaneously watch live video, anywhere and at different locations, of family and pets at home, vacation homes or businesses and receive a recorded video alert when motion is detected.  The kit includes an Oplink OPU and two cameras with the motion-detection feature.
• Oplink TripleShield™ 1-Camera Intrusion & Surveillance Alert System ($399) seamlessly integrates Oplink AlarmShield™ and VideoShield™ systems, providing the protection of home sensor security with real-time video streaming and surveillance functions.

Oplink Security decided in the early stages that Verizon Wireless was the best choice for coverage and network reliability. For $9.99 per month plus $49.99 for the cellular modem, Oplink customers have the option to add a Verizon Wireless connection to keep the system up and running in the case of a power outage or landline failure.  Now, customers in many rural areas – without access to traditional broadband internet services – can get a dependable, robust security system with live video.

“Oplink’s home security system is an ideal complement to our existing business offerings,” said Russ Preite, region president for Verizon Wireless. “Teaming up with Oplink provides our customers with leading edge mobile security products and services, while also giving users the reliability of our network.”
