President's Letter: May 2008

DPS Goes Way Beyond Basic Remotes and Masters...

Specific Diversity is not an oxymoron, but a philosophy we apply to our product lines. For over 20+ years DPS has focused our attention specifically towards the telecommunications market. Within that market, we concentrate on alarm monitoring solutions - and the peripherals and technologies that support those functions.

Within that segment, however, we offer a very diverse product portfolio that goes far beyond basic alarm remotes and masters. For example, let's look at alarm remotes: Do you want small, medium or large capacity? Do you have legacy polling lines or do you need LAN & SNMP? What about Dialup, Fiber, T1, and wireless transport? Are your RTU's in an environmentally controlled CO or do they have to be tough enough to run in your outside plant? What voltages do you operate on? What type of termination?

I could go on and on with alarm remotes. But I could also go into our other solutions such as: Order wire solutions to support communications between on site techs, master stations, alarm signal conditioners, terminal severs, switches, sensors, alarm enunciators, alarm echo devices, alarm replicators, alarm mediation, and (most of all) industry knowledge and trends that we share with our alarm community.

This month I'm pleased to continue that tradition of diversity and enhancements by announcing our new HTTPS web browser security to the most recent version of our NetGuardian G5 platform.

Best Regards,

Eric Storm
