Johnson Controls introduces the VideoEdge 1U Network Video Recorder from American Dynamics, for camera management solution when, the product company says, scalable video storage capacity is a priority. The VideoEdge 1U NVR’s 16 embedded software configurable Power over Ethernet ports make it suitable the firm says for small to medium-sized business users.
The NVR supports as many as 32 IP cameras and stores up to 24 TB of recorded video in a 1U form factor. With embedded PoE switches, users can expect faster installation times plus reduced hardware requirements and downtime, the company says.
Embedded intelligence allows users to receive multiple video streams for live and recorded video, alarm, and meta-data collection, all tailored to different viewing conditions. Multicast video streams further reduce the bandwidth required for streaming video. Users can set up analytics on Illustra cameras and other cameras from VideoEdge 1U. The system’s analytics information can be gathered for business and security needs. When used in retail settings, point of sale text integration can be used to identify fraud or track cashier competence as well.
Stuart Bettle, Video Product Marketing Manager, EMEA, Building Technologies and Solutions, Johnson Controls said: “The value gained by leveraging data from VideoEdge 1U NVR’s powerful analytics not only enhances security applications by tracking behaviours but also by capturing consumer metrics and using it to shape business-critical plans and functions. These benefits come in a unit designed with the smaller user’s need for easy installation and unique requirements in mind.”
