Device Tunneling & Remote Access
Generate secure, temporary URLs to access any connected device for configuration, firmware updates, and troubleshooting. Works instantly through most firewalls - no port forwarding, no static IPs, no software to install.
One-Click Device Access
We made this even simpler: tap the tunnel button directly from the Cameras or IP Devices tables to instantly access the device's web interface. You can also create a tunnel to any port of your choosing.
No Network Configuration Required
Eliminate complex networking setup. TetherX handles all the security and connectivity, creating secure tunnels that work through firewalls and NAT without exposing your network.
Remote Configuration
Adjust camera settings, update recording schedules, and configure alerts without site visits
Firmware Updates
Update device firmware remotely, apply security patches, and maintain equipment from anywhere
Troubleshooting
Diagnose issues, check device logs, and resolve problems instantly, reducing engineer visits by 70%

Access Control & Recognition
Seamless integration with access control systems for comprehensive visitor and employee management. Currently features full access control integration with systems like Paxton Net2, with facial recognition capabilities expanding our offerings in early 2026.
Control Rooms
Power professional control room operations with real-time monitoring, intelligent event management, and comprehensive situational awareness tools.
Control Rooms & ARCs
Use TetherX as a complete standalone monitoring platform, or integrate with your existing ARC software like IMMIX or Sentinel. Reduce false alarms by 80% and onboard new sites instantly.
Video Intelligence & Surveillance
Harness the power of advanced video analytics with ANPR capabilities, interactive maps, time-lapse functionality, and lightning-fast search across hundreds of terabytes of footage.
Time-lapse
AI-powered smart snapshots that capture the most representative moments, creating powerful time-lapse videos from years of footage compressed into minutes.
Time-lapse Intelligence
Machine learning snapshots every 5 seconds analyse every frame to automatically select the most representative image. When someone runs past the camera, the system captures them front and centre with detection highlighting, creating powerful time-lapse capabilities that go far beyond security monitoring to providing evidence of no evidence, scrubbing through hours, days, or weeks of footage in seconds, and construction progress tracking.
Prove someone was NOT there at any given time without wasting storage on empty footage
2 years of construction compressed into 2-minute videos for security and marketing use
Best snapshot every 5 seconds means no wasted space recording empty scenes
Generate high-quality promotional videos showcasing project evolution and transformation stories
Please Note: Time-lapse video generation incurs additional charges. Contact your account manager for pricing.
