Equipment needed
IP-based video surveillance lets you make use of your existing network infrastructure, while giving you a scalable system that grows with your needs.
Network video products provide an easy way to capture and distribute high quality video over any kind of IP network or the Internet. The video can be stored at remote locations for convenience and security, and the information can be transported in a secured way over the IP network or Internet. Using standard PC server hardware for video recording and storage rather than proprietary equipment (such as DVRs) radically reduces management and equipment costs, particularly for larger systems where storage and servers are a significant part of the total solution cost.
Video management software supplies the basis for video monitoring, analysis, and recording. To view several cameras at the same time, you need dedicated video management software.
Find IP video products
Network cameras are connected directly to your IP network. Find fixed network cameras for both indoor and outdoor applications, as well as pan/tilt/zoom and network dome cameras that enable remote control of pan, tilt and zoom functions. Video encoders help you connect your existing analog cameras to your IP network, thus minimizing your investment requirements, and taking advantage of the numerous functionalities network video offers.
