Purpose-built platform delivers faster deployment, expanded free channels, and unified video and access control for SMBs
City of Industry, CA (December 10, 2025) – Hikvision, a world-leading manufacturer and supplier of security products and solutions that deliver the ideal combination of high performance and extreme value, today announced the release of its HikCentral Lite (HCL) V1.1.2 all-in-one units. Designed for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) and the integrators who support them, the new units combine streamlined deployment, expanded free channels, and a unified software foundation for reliable, everyday security.
"Our newly upgraded platform redefines SMB security by eliminating the initial software cost, giving integrators an enterprise-grade solution at competitive prices they can deploy quickly,” said John Xiao, Vice President of Marketing, Hikvision USA. “This new release is entirely focused on driving speed and performance for our partners and end-users, ensuring predictable costs and pain-free scaling."
The LiteVMS RM, G7, and B1U models arrive preconfigured with HCL V1.1.2, giving integrators a ready-to-deploy system that behaves consistently across sites. Each unit includes an Intel® i7 processor, an integrated managed PoE+ switch, hot-swappable drive bays, TPM 2.0 hardware protection, and storage options from 20 TB to 80 TB. This tuned hardware architecture shortens installation time and reduces service calls by providing a predictable, stable starting point for every project.
HCL V1.1.2 expands its set of free included channels and adds powerful built-in capabilities that help teams work faster, including:
Unified video and access control in a single interface
High-capacity live view and multi-channel playback
People counting and scene analytics
Person and vehicle classification
