Flint, the latest addition to Wavestore’s hybrid range, provides compact video recording for applications where desktop space may be limited or a shelf mounted product may be preferred.
Features include three 3.5-inch hot swappable hard drives, and in common with all of the Wavestore hybrid video recording models, the Flint is able to record images captured by the latest IP network cameras and traditional analogue cameras at the same time. Images from any combination of up to 16 analogue or IP network cameras can be recorded simultaneously with a choice of H.264, MxPEG, MPEG-4, MJPEG or JPEG2000 compression.
Measuring 96mm by 385mm by 428mm, the recorder is supplied as standard for desktop or shelf mounting and is shipped with detachable brackets for installation in a standard 19-inch rack.
Chris Williams, Director of Wavestore, said: “We have introduced the Flint as a direct result of feedback from installers and customers to address two issues which they know are important. Firstly, the features of the Wavestore V5 software included in the Flint means that it can be quickly installed and commissioned, and secondly, the combination of dynamic system health monitoring, tray-less caddy design and the facility to rapidly hot swap any of the three hard drives, means that servicing time, cost and disruption are minimised.”
The Flint is designed to provide a competitively priced recording solution for medium sized CCTV projects in schools, hospitals, office buildings, manufacturing, car parks and retail applications. A drag and drop function enables each user to create unique multiple display preferences, while the recorder offers a search facility to allow users to be able to quickly review recorded images of any incident. The recorded video can be converted to MPEG, Flash Video, AVI, and other formats. Users who export video using the manufacturer’s native format can use features such as encryption and image authentication.
Wavestore’s remote monitoring software allows users to securely monitor real-time live images, or retrieve video recorded over the network from the Flint’s hard drives, whilst multiple units can be configured into a server group to support large and distributed CCTV applications.
As with the company’s other digital recording systems, the Flint uses a Linux based open software platform, and comes with a one year return to base warranty. Visit: www.wavestore.com.
