Genetec Inc has introduced Cloudlink™ 2210, a new appliance designed to enhance cloud-managed enterprise physical security.
This innovative product is intended for large-scale deployments, addressing numerous challenges such as high cloud storage costs, integration with existing devices lacking direct cloud connectivity, and ensuring continued local operations during network interruptions.
Overview of the Cloudlink 2210
The Cloudlink 2210 features a stackable, 2U rack-mount design, making it suitable for high-density, mission-critical environments without necessitating a complete infrastructure overhaul. This appliance consolidates video management, access control, and intrusion functionalities, thereby minimizing system complexity and operational costs.
Cloudlink 2210’s open architecture allows integration with various third-party devices, facilitating the modernization of security systems without losing architectural flexibility.
A New Approach to Cloud-Managed Security
The Cloudlink 2210 supports high-density deployments with up to 240 TB of storageChristian Chenard Lemire, Product Director of Unified Solutions at Genetec Inc, stated, “Enterprises don’t want to choose between innovation and operational certainty. With Cloudlink 2210, we’re redefining what cloud-managed physical security looks like at scale by giving organizations the freedom to modernize on their own terms, control long-term costs, and maintain the resiliency and continuity their most critical environments demand.”
Scalable Design for Enterprise Needs
Supporting hundreds of devices per unit and up to 240 TB of local storage, the Cloudlink 2210 is engineered for environments with high device density and stringent data retention policies.
Its design emphasizes local data storage to help manage long-term costs while ensuring the necessary performance and availability for enterprise operations.
Ensuring Operational Resiliency
The Cloudlink 2210 is equipped with RAID-protected storage and redundant system components, offering robust protection and operating system availability. This ensures that security workloads remain active even without cloud connectivity, preserving operational continuity during network disruptions.
Dual network interfaces further enhance cybersecurity by providing redundancy and supporting network isolation.
Adaptable Deployment and Management
Centralized cloud management provides consistent oversight across multiple deployments
As business needs evolve, the Cloudlink 2210's scalability allows for easy expansion by adding units, thereby increasing device and storage capacities without infrastructure redesign.
Centralized cloud management provides consistent oversight across multiple deployments. Part of Genetec’s flexible cloud-managed appliance portfolio, the Cloudlink 2210 allows operations on-premises, in the cloud, or in hybrid setups, catering to diverse operational and regulatory landscapes.
By integrating high-performance local processing and storage with cloud management, it maintains control and performance even during large deployments.
Availability and Future Developments
The Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is set for public unveiling at ISC West in booth #13062, with global shipping anticipated to commence in May 2026, facilitated by Genetec’s network of accredited channel partners.
Genetec Inc, the global pioneer in enterprise physical security software, announced Genetec Cloudlink™ 2210.
Designed for complex, enterprise-scale deployments, the new cloud-managed appliance addresses the practical challenges enterprises face when adopting a cloud-managed model at scale, including cloud storage costs, support for existing devices that do not enable direct-to-cloud connectivity, and the need to maintain local operation during connectivity disruptions.
About the Cloudlink 2210
With a stackable, 2U rack-mount form factor, the Cloudlink 2210 enables large organizations to extend cloud-managed security across high-density, mission-critical environments without redesigning their existing infrastructure.
Like the rest of the Genetec Cloudlink line, the 2210 supports multiple workloads, including video management, access control, and intrusion, in a single appliance. By consolidating these workloads into one appliance, it reduces system sprawl, simplifies management in large-scale environments, and lowers operational overhead.
Unlike solutions that separate workloads across multiple proprietary systems, Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is built on an open architecture that supports a wide range of third-party devices, including cameras, access control systems, and intrusion panels. This enables organizations to modernize at scale within a unified, cloud-managed model designed to preserve architectural flexibility, while securely integrating existing hardware, maintaining business continuity, and reducing migration risks.
Redefining cloud-managed physical security
“Enterprises don’t want to choose between innovation and operational certainty,” said Christian Chenard Lemire, Product Director, Unified Solutions, Genetec Inc. “With Cloudlink 2210, we’re redefining what cloud-managed physical security looks like at scale by giving organizations the freedom to modernize on their own terms, control long-term costs, and maintain the resiliency and continuity their most critical environments demand.”
Designed for scale and flexibility
Cloudlink 2210 supports hundreds of connected devices per appliance and provides up to 240 TB of local storage per unit, making it well-suited for deployments with high device density and long retention policies. The Cloudlink 2210 is ideal for enterprise environments where uptime and local retention requirements are operational priorities because its design minimizes dependence on cloud storage, helping organizations control long-term storage costs while maintaining the performance and availability required in enterprise environments.
Resiliency for environments that cannot afford downtime
Cloudlink 2210 also incorporates hardware-level resiliency to support strict uptime and retention requirements. RAID-protected storage and redundant system components help ensure data protection and OS availability. Security workloads continue operating locally, independent of cloud connectivity, allowing deployments to maintain continuity even during network disruptions. Dual network interfaces provide redundancy and support network isolation to strengthen cybersecurity.
Scaling without infrastructure overhaul
Cloudlink 2210 scales by adding units as requirements grow, enabling organizations to increase device counts and storage capacity without redesigning their infrastructure. Centralized cloud management maintains visibility and control across deployments.
Expanding deployment & project flexibility
Genetec Cloudlink 2210 is part of the broader Genetec approach to deployment flexibility. The cloud-managed appliance portfolio enables organizations to operate on premises, in the cloud, or across hybrid environments based on their operational and regulatory requirements. By combining high-performance local processing and storage with centralized cloud operations and management, Cloudlink 2210 supports scalable, cloud-managed deployments without compromising control or performance.
For channel partners, this flexibility enables larger, higher-density projects within a consistent cloud-managed appliance framework. Integrators can simplify installation, accelerate rollout timelines, and scale predictably by adding units as requirements grow. This approach accommodates customers with strict retention policies and hybrid environments that seamlessly combine local infrastructure with Security Center SaaS.
Availability
The Genetec Cloudlink 2210 will be showcased at ISC West in booth #13062 and is expected to begin shipping globally in May 2026 through the Genetec network of accredited channel partners.
