Xiamen, China, Jan 30, 2026 — Building on the success of the OpenVision Series and Nx-embedded solutions, Milesight and Network Optix are reinforcing their strategic partnership in 2026 to further support edge-first video deployments across increasingly demanding environments. This approach is especially well suited for multi-site operations, temporary installations, and mobile deployments where speed, simplicity, and flexibility are critical.

As organizations expand across multiple locations and operating conditions, the industry is placing greater emphasis on architectures that reduce infrastructure complexity while remaining adaptable over time. In response, Milesight and Network Optix are strengthening collaboration across product planning and technology development to better support how modern video is deployed and managed in practice.

“Customers want solutions that are easier to deploy today and flexible enough to grow with them tomorrow,” said James Cox, VP of Business Development at Network Optix. “Our continued collaboration with Milesight is focused on delivering an open approach that supports modern video deployments across sites—without sacrificing control, consistency, or long-term adaptability.”

OpenVision: Serverless at the Edge

The Milesight OpenVision cameras, powered by Nx Witness Enterprise, enable a serverless approach by moving video management closer to the edge. With Nx Witness running directly on OpenVision devices, teams can handle recording, event management, and AI analytics locally—reducing reliance on external NVRs and simplifying on-site infrastructure. 

Unlike closed surveillance ecosystems that limit long-term flexibility, OpenVision is built around an open strategy that helps organizations maintain control as requirements evolve.

“OpenVision is the result of listening closely to real deployment needs and building a solution around what truly works in the field,” said Prince Cai, VP of Milesight Security. “By aligning more closely with Network Optix, we will continue strengthening this foundation so our partners can deliver modern video systems with greater confidence.”

Strengthening Collaboration for What Comes Next

With OpenVision already demonstrating strong market momentum, Milesight and Network Optix will continue working closely to deliver solutions built for real-world conditions—combining simplicity, flexibility, and long-term scalability. Together, the two companies remain focused on advancing an open, edge-first approach that supports modern distributed surveillance and evolving deployment requirements.
