If you’ve installed analog cameras in the past few years they’re going to be functional for quite some time. There’s no need to shortchange that investment. Video servers will allow you to maintain those analog CCTV cameras while enhancing your video surveillance system to provide the benefits of IP video.
So you don’t have to discard your existing analog cameras! A video server allows your functioning analog CCTV video surveillance system to be integrated with a network video system. Gain the benefits of network video without having to replace what’s bought, paid for, and still working.
Installing coaxial cable is expensive and once installed, hard to justify re-cabling with Cat 5. And with the average lifespan of an analog camera at 5 – 7 years, what fails first are the VCR’s and DVR’s used to record the video. Video servers not only allow you to keep existing analog equipment such as analog CCTV cameras and coaxial cabling but open up a true network video system because the video is consistently sent over an IP network.
A video server connects to an analog video camera via a coaxial cable and converts analog video signals into digital video streams that are then sent over a wired or wireless IP-based network (i.g., LAN, WLAN or Internet).
Video servers are a great problem solver when you’re faced with the challenge of migrating a large investment in analog CCTV cameras to IP video. Next up I’ll go into more detail about a very important benefit that video servers provide – Event management and intelligent video capabilities with the ability to use advanced video monitoring software.
