NICE Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ:
NICE), a leading global provider of advanced
solutions that enable organizations to extract Insight from Interactions to
drive performance, today announced that it has been selected by Beijing Metro
in China to provide NICE\'s IP video solution, with support for content
analytics at certain project locales, to enhance safety and security at the
24 stations of its Line 15 route. The IP-based NICE solution was selected
following successful deployment of 6 of the other Metro lines. NICE\'s
business partner for the project is Beijing JingShiDa Machinery and equipment
Research Institute. This is a milestone project both for Beijing Metro and
NICE, in that it is the Metro\'s largest video security project ever.

    Line 15 of the Beijing Metro is a rapid transit rail line currently under
construction in the city of Beijing. The subway line is planned to run 40
kilometers, with 24 stations, across northern Beijing from Xiyuan in Haidan
District in the west, which is the location for the famous Summer Palace,
which has the largest royal park in China, is designated Key Cultural Royal
Protection Site, and is a main tourist attraction, through to Hedong in the
Shunyi District in the east.

    The NICE IP video security solution will be deployed to protect commuters
at each of the line\'s 24 stations, which will be connected to a security
system that consists of over 2,600 channels, thus constituting Beijing
metro\'s biggest video security project ever. The scalable IP-based video
solution will provide Beijing Metro Line 15 with seamless surveillance, to
help protect the railway including its tracks and stations and passengers.
NICE will provide support for advanced capabilities, such as identifying
unattended luggage, detecting unauthorized entry into secured areas, and
counting the number of people across multiple entries/exits. By providing
real-time alerts, security personnel will be able to verify the security of
the physical infrastructure and to prevent accidents resulting in enhanced
passenger safety and better asset protection.

    \"Following the success and proven reliability in the six projects we
already have running with Beijing Metro, we are very happy to have been
selected once again for this important milestone project,\" said Doron
Ben-Sira, President APAC. \"Being selected for this project reflects NICE\'s
expanding footprint in the Asia\'s security market, and our expertise in
providing advanced solutions for enhancing the safety and security of mass
transit systems worldwide.\"
