Moreover, this year offline events gather together professionals at 132 events in 43 countries. The presentation focused on the product updates and releases across all Ajax portfolio:

The company also introduced a suite of software and service updates, improving integration, usability, and overall performance across the Ajax security ecosystem.

Ajax Systems has proven that it not only continues to take new heights in intrusion protection but also confidently navigates relatively new horizons of fire and life safety, comfort and automation, as well as video surveillance. More so, Ajax Systems has demonstrated that the products of different categories seamlessly integrate into one Ajax system and enhance each other.

Strategic changes in the Ajax portfolio segmentation were also unveiled. As a result, four new product categories were revealed: Intrusion protectionFire and life safetyComfort and automation, and Video surveillance. Such a comprehensive solution offers numerous benefits to end users and infinite business opportunities to professionals.

Ajax Systems updates the segmentation of its portfolio

Ajax Systems is a fast-growing company with a remarkable pace of releases. The portfolio grows by 30 unique products each year. However, such a remarkable pace has its side effects. The portfolio is becoming less clear as it grows. For this reason, we introduce its new segmentation — simpler, clearer, and intuitive.

There are several key changes. First of all, there are four new product categories — Intrusion protection, Fire and life safety, Comfort and automation, and Video surveillance. Intrusion protection is further subdivided. It has two product lines: Baseline and Superior. Baseline encompasses wireless Jeweller devices; for intrusion only. Superior covers wireless Jeweller devices and wired Fibra devices intended for high-profile projects. The line now also has dedicated hub models — Hub Hybrid (2G/4G), or soon-to-be Superior Hub Hybrid (2G/4G).

IndoorCam: a domesticated professional security

Ajax Systems announces one of the most awaited Ajax products ever — IndoorCam, a Wi-Fi security camera with a PIR sensor, built-in AI, and a fallback communication channel. It is perfect for homes, restaurants, shops, or any other sites where using wired solutions would be an inconvenience.

Equipped with a 4 MP camera, HDR, and IR illumination of up to 8 m, the device ensures a rich-in-detail image quality both day and night. The PIR sensor detects movement at a distance of up to 4 m, while built-in AI recognizes people, pets, or vehicles. The camera also features a highly sensitive microphone and a top-notch speaker for two-way communication without echo or background noises.

Availability: IndoorCam will be available to order in Q1 2025.

DoorBell: Professional security at the front door

DoorBell - Key featuresWhile the video surveillance category is on the rise, it receives an obvious addition — Ajax DoorBell, a video doorbell with built-in AI, PIR sensor, and control via apps.

In-house noise and echo canceling solutions and enhanced sound output enable users to talk and hear clearly, even in noisy environments.

What the Ajax team takes the most pride in is the doorbell’s communication capabilities. The main communication channel is the usual Wi-Fi but with unrivaled communication range — up to 500 m in line of sight. It is up to 5 times more in comparison with the competitors’ solutions. If the Wi-Fi connection is lost, DoorBell has a fallback communication channel with an Ajax hub — Jeweller and Wings. The device never turns into a brick.
