CUES, Inc. is the sole source direct provider for all CUES CCTV Equipment, Services, Parts, and Support for the entire state of Florida.

Furthermore, we are the sole CCTV equipment manufacturer located physically in the state of Florida. While other manufacturer's may claim to be within the state, they do so through 3rd party dealerships and manufacturer's representatives and are not themselves located in Florida to service and support your account. Other vendors may claim to able to work on CUES equipment but CUES, Inc. itself is the only authorized provider of sales, service, and support for CUES equipment. Any use of a vendor outside of CUES, Inc. that modifies, services, or provides technical parts may risk voiding any applicable CUES, Inc. warranty.

If you already own CUES equipment, we are the sole provider that is directly compatible with all of your existing equipment. CUES in the only manufacturer to offer a 100% full circle compatibility where all existing mainline cameras and transporters are 100% compatible with any new/future CUES, Inc. equipment purchase. This full circle compatibility allows older equipment to work on newer TV systems and newer equipment to operate on some older systems.

We are the sole manufacturer and supplier of OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) products/parts for all

CUES, Inc. Systems and Product Line. No other vendor or manufacturer offers CUES, Inc. Equipment or Authorized

Service in the entire state of Florida.
