Symmetry™ ENVS
System Overview
The HI SEC Symmetry Edge Network Video Servers (ENVS®)
provide a flexible video management hardware platform
for organizations moving towards digital video while
operating under the constraints of today’s legacy camera
installations, network bandwidth and storage limitations.
Featuring high quality MPEG-4 DSP video encoding, the Symmetry
ENVS supports standard analog cameras and is available
in one or four channel models with on board data storage.
The Symmetry ENVS provides full software and peer to peer level integration with our market
leading range of security management products.
Using event based recording capability, video can be
stored on any event triggered from an access control or intrusion system. For
example, a minute before – using an internal video buffer
- and after a door is opened, video can be stored or the
configuration of the video can be changed.
With up to 80GB of storage in the video server, activity
can be stored and forwarded on demand allowing for
archiving to take place at off-peak times. This provides
the scalability and flexibility to meet the demands of
applications of all sizes while reducing the network
bandwidth required during peak operating times.
The frame rate, video resolution, presets and any other
settings can be adjusted for individual cameras to react to
predefined triggers or on a timed basis. This provides an unparalleled level of security integration for any organization and
can
dramatically reduce the storage requirement for video.
