Amthal Group Companies has expanded its range of security solutions with the introduction of AirShield, a wireless intruder alarm system developed by Dahua Technology.
This addition targets residential properties and reinforces Amthal's commitment to professionally installed security systems.
About AirShield
AirShield meets the growing demand for security systems that offer professional-grade reliability fused with advanced connectivity and remote monitoring capabilities. Notably, it does not rely on subscription models for its core functions.
The system integrates essential security features, including intruder detection, video verification, and intercom services, all managed through Dahua's DMSS mobile app.
Delivering a Wireless Solution
According to Paul Rosenthal, Group Business Development Director at Amthal, “AirShield aligns closely with how Amthal approaches security system design: professionally specified, technically robust and straightforward for users to manage. Our partnership with Dahua allows us to deliver a wireless solution that integrates intrusion detection, video surveillance and system control within a single platform, while maintaining the levels of reliability, resilience and long-term monitoring support our clients expect.”
Features and Benefits
AirShield uses Dahua’s secure wireless protocolAirShield provides users with the ability to visually verify alarms in near real-time, remotely manage system arming and disarming, and receive event notifications through a cohesive interface. It merges alarm sensors, cameras, and access devices into a unified ecosystem to simplify security management for homeowners, while adhering to professional installation and support standards.
Incorporating Dahua's wireless protocol, AirShield features encryption and frequency hopping to ensure secure, stable communication between the hub and connected devices. It offers zone-based arming for independent security management of different property areas, accommodating various residential and mixed-use needs.
The inclusion of PIR camera sensors allows for image snapshots with alarm notifications, aiding users and Amthal’s partnered remote monitoring service, EMCS, in differentiating actual incidents from false alarms.
Integrated Security
Alvin Qian, General Manager for Dahua Technology UK, emphasized, "AirShield reflects Dahua’s approach to integrated security, combining AIoT technologies with practical, everyday usability. Amthal’s support for the system aligns with our focus on professional system design, compliance and long-term support, all with no ongoing subscription costs. It helps ensure AirShield is specified, installed and maintained to the highest standards.”
For installers and service providers, AirShield is backed by Dahua's DoLynk Care platform, which facilitates remote system diagnostics, firmware updates, and health monitoring. This initiative aims to maintain system performance and minimize the necessity for routine on-site maintenance.
