Cisco Video Surveillance Media Server v5.0
Cisco® Video Surveillance Manager now includes Web-based management functionality acquired from the BroadWare line of products. Cisco video surveillance solutions enable secure, policy-based access to live or recorded video. This network-centric software and hardware works in unison with the advanced switches, routers, and other network security devices of the IP network infrastructure to support video transmission, monitoring, recording, and management. With support for many third-party video surveillance cameras, encoders, and applications, Cisco video surveillance solutions allow you to build video surveillance systems for the best cost, performance, and capability.
Cisco Video Surveillance Manager consists of four products:
-Cisco Video Surveillance Media Server: Enables collection and routing of video from a wide range of third-party cameras, event-tagging and recording of video, flexible and redundant video archiving, and bandwidth management over LANs and WANs.
-Cisco Video Surveillance Operations Manager: Allows you to quickly and effectively configure and manage video throughout the enterprise. It provides Web-based consoles to configure, manage, display, and control video throughout an IP network, and it enables you to manage a large number of Cisco Video Surveillance Media Servers, virtual matrixes, cameras, and users.
-Cisco Video Surveillance Virtual Matrix: Allows you to select and control the video displayed on any number of local and remote monitors. It also permits integrated security applications to control video displays. It aggregates and transmits video from cameras and recording platforms over an IP network, offering capabilities that analog switches cannot deliver. It delivers live and recorded video to demanding command centers with great flexibility, providing high-availability access to network video for continuous monitoring applications.
-Cisco Video Surveillance Encoding Server: Encodes, distributes, manages, and archives digital video feeds in one multifunction appliance. Each server encodes up to 64 channels, provides up to 12 terabytes of storage, and enables you to meet a diverse range of video surveillance requirements. It lets you combine multiple video codecs, manage bandwidth over each part of the network to complement capacity and protect other applications, and create redundant archives for highly secure, automated storage. With the Cisco Video Surveillance Operations Manager, it also provides Web-based consoles to configure, manage, display, and control video.
