Network Recording Device For Ip Cameras

[james.wilson]

depnds on purpose, general purpose i agree conventional equipment rules, but high res static megapixels, means ip all the way

...but high res static megapixels, means ip all the way

depends of purpose again if you REALLY need a megapixel camera...

Hi Paddy

There is a neat little cost effective 10 channel NVR from Quadrox which comes with a 3 year onsite Hewlett Packard warranty.

Compatible with most branded IP Cameras

PM me and I'll give you an idea of the price

You'll find the datasheet/ demo etc here - http://www.webcctv.com/

Hope this helps

Have a look at Milestone

It's available from UK security distributors.

We have integrated it with Net2.

Hi

Are there any 4 Channel Recorders on the market that can be connected directly to IP cameras using RJ45 connectiors.

Thanks in advance

Paddy

It's a bit late for me to get my brain in gear, but I vaguely recall that March Networks may have a 4 channel unit that fits the bill. http://www.doktorjon.com/manufacturers/M/march1.html

I know that a few other manufacturers have launched some interesting products in the last few weeks; JVC for example are introducing a standalone with Milestone Systems software on board, and Wavelet have also launched a new model that allows both analogue and IP camera connection, but I think they are probably 9 channel units.

If you're interested, post back and I'll dig out some links.

Quadrox network video recorders accept direct IP inputs from a range of IP cameras (Panasonic/Axis/Sony etc.). Several other manufacturers support a mix of analog and IP inputs. Most manufacturers offer a single RJ45 input, multiple cameras are input via a standard hub. Inputs are not limited like traditional DVRs with BNC connectors. The limitation on IP camera inputs is defined by the processing power of the recorder (often max of around 10 - although some manufacturers state up up 32).

Personally I don't see IP camera support as stable enough yet to rely on long-term. Admittedly this is mainly because the last IP cam implementation I saw on our kit wasn't too hot, but overall it doesn't seem to really hit the right mark...

... multiple cameras are input via a standard hub.

here an it man would use something else than hub..

Inputs are not limited like traditional DVRs with BNC connectors. The limitation on IP camera inputs is defined by the processing power of the recorder (often max of around 10 - although some manufacturers state up up 32).

professional software can easily record at rates of 1000ips. divide that across how many cameras and ips per camera you wish but i think it exceeds 32 anyway..?

Georg, im curious 1000 fps thats huge, any links im vurious. Didnt know Big blue had been made into a dvr

seriously im curious to see the hardware req for that fps

software database can achieve a throughput of 1000 ips. below is a hw needed for approx 30 video sources.

Xeon Dual Processor with each 3.2 GHZ Processor speed

RAM 4 GB

Enough archiving space for images, system with RAID 1

not too silly i think..
