IT distributor Synnex increases physical security investment

Synnex, a distributor of IT products and services, has deepened its focus on its physical security practice by rolling it into its VISUALSolv group, making heavy investments in infrastructure, and has announced the addition of key new vendor lines to complement its existing physical security product offerings and services -- all building the strength behind a singular source for the channel. Channel partners can also attach complementary solutions and services such as networking, video conferencing and mobility solutions, all offered through Synnex.

“Placing physical security under the VISUALSolv umbrella and portfolio of products and services allows Synnex to both intensify and complement our focus on visual-related technology practice for our integrator partners,” stated TJ Trojan, Senior VP of Product Management at Synnex. “We are now more aligned to help integrators establish and expand their Physical Security practices as well as capitalize on convergence, all while enabling them to break into new, complementary technologies and vertical markets to create net new business opportunities.”

Synnex provides several services of which integrators may take advantage, including Synnex “staging as a service”, delivering staged, preconfigured cameras to resellers for easy installation. In the public sector market, Synnex has many initiatives to help customers win government and education contracts through its GSA Schedule, Grant Program and Diversity Alliance Program.
