This Chapter provides details of the Video Server's features, components and
capabilities.
Overview
The Video Server digitizes analog video signals and transmits digital images directly to your
wired LAN or the Internet. The Video Server is a device that used to turn an analog video
system into high performance IP-based solutions. The Video Server comes with the RS-485
interface, which can be used for external PTZ devices. It also supports Digital I/O (4-IN, 4-
OUT) for external sensors and alarms. Up to 10 authorized viewers from different locations
can view the H.264, MPEG-4 and M-JPEG streams simultaneously.
H.264 uses the new innovations in video compression technology to provide excellent video
quality from the low video data. Bit rate can be saved up more with nearly lossless coding
while using H.264. The intent of the H.264 project was to create a standard capable of
providing good video quality at lower bit rates than previous standards, without increasing the
complexity of design which would be impractical or expensive to implement.
A convenient and user-friendly Windows program is provided for both viewing and recording
video. If necessary, you can even view video using your Web Browser, on a variety of software
platforms.
