IP Video
IP surveillance systems are founded on well-proven and innovative network technology. Nearly all of today's computer networks are IP enabled. It transfers 100% digital video over your computer network, making monitoring and control possible from anywhere.
Traditional analog CCTV surveillance technology has been used for over 30 years and is now being replaced by the more efficient IP video technology.
Advantages of IP digital video systems include:
- High-quality Images: This gives you the ability to identify people and objects like never before.
- True enterprise solution: Since digital video is communicated over the network, you can create a true Enterprise security network. Any number of cameras from any number of locations can all be recorded and viewed from anywhere. This creates added security by eliminating a single point of failure.
- Integration: Since IP technology is being utilized in most networks, existing standards make integration more prevalent and cost-effective.
- Cost effective: IP technology is more cost effective on many levels. Installation can utilize your existing network and cabling, your existing IT staff can include video servers into current maintenance plans and service equipment themselves, all video is stored on hard drives eliminating the need for tapes, and artificial intelligence can eliminate the need for a person to monitor video.
- Future proof investment: IP technology is well established and is already an industry standard. Any IP technology will be a secure investment far into the future.
- Video analytics: Digital video allows the use of artificial intelligence. Allowing the server to monitor video intelligently eliminates the need for human monitoring and has the ability to notice things beyond the scope of the human eye. Software algorithms monitor data, behavior, objects and attitude to trigger alarm events. Count people in a scene, determine locations, track people across multiple cameras, identify suspicious movement, determine the speed and direction of an object, monitor for missing objects, and much more.
