EX4U IP VIDEO SERVERS
EX4U video servers integrate easily into your existing analog CCTV (closed
circuit television) system. You can acquire all the benefits that digital
technology offers without scrapping your investment in an analog system.
What is a video server?
A video server digitizes analog video signals and sends digital images directly over
an IP-network, such as a
LAN, intranet or Internet. It essentially turns an analog video system into a
network video system and enables users to view live images using a Web browser
or EX4U online video management services on any local
or remote computer on a network. It allows authorized viewers from different
locations to simultaneously access images from the same analog camera, as well
as network cameras if they are added to the system.
Remote accessibility
An IP based surveillance system will give you the ability to secure people and property,
or monitor equipment and facilities, remotely from anywhere there is a networked
computer. In addition, by utilizing the serial ports of a video server, you can
remotely control existing equipment such as pan/tilt/zoom devices or time-lapse
tape recorders. A video server can be connected to a wide variety of specialized
cameras such as a miniature or microscope camera.
Alarm management You gain a wide range of features such as e-mail notification
upon alarm, and integration possibilities with other security devices through a video server's digital inputs and outputs (I/O).
Digital inputs can be used to trigger the transmission of images from the video
server upon alarm. Digital outputs can be used to remotely or automatically open
or close doors, turn lights on or off, and control temperature levels.
Extend the possibilities of your analog CCTV system By combining an analog CCTV system with a network video system, you can easily and cost-effectively
expand the surveillance system, and reduce total installation and maintenance
costs. Going digital means you'll have
crisp, quality images. Images from an alarm event could be easily and quickly
distributed via computer networks to many people in different locations for
further examination. A video server's image buffers can save and send images
collected before an alarm occurred. Images can be stored on a hard disk at
remote locations for convenience and/or security purposes. There is no need to
buy or change video tapes, or service the video recorder. Digital storage also
reduces the risk of image degradation and provides quick and easy search
capabilities.
