It’s no secret that the time is right to switch from analog to digital video processing.
However, many businesses have made large investments in analog cameras and other
surveillance equipment. That’s why we’ve designed our line of DVRs to work in concert with
your current products.
SymSuite makes your move to digital as seamless and efficient as possible, as SymDVRs
accept both digital and analog video inputs.
Our line of DVRs allows customers to send digital video and control data across any IP network
– the same kind of network your computers use. This allows customers to observe video virtually
everywhere around the globe.
That’s music to the ears of your security and IT staff.
In today’s world of video security the market is moving towards IP based solutions. Manufacturers traditionally associated with analog products are allocating R&D resources to develop IP cameras and recording platforms. There is a trend for security professionals to move towards IP based video solutions because of the clear value the technology brings:
1. Better image quality through megapixel resolution and progressive scan image sensors.
2. Lower cost and more flexible infrastructure through Ethernet cabling, Power over Ethernet functionality and ability to transmit multiple channels of video, data, audio & PTZ control through a single cable.
3. Digital encoding guarantees image quality over long distance transmission and over wireless transmission mediums.
4. In-camera or edge processing can mean a reduction in the required server computing resources.
There are millions of analog cameras in place today. Customers adding to their video security system typically consider options to use IP and analog cameras together in what is called a hybrid system. There are several technologies which can accomplish this, all of which have benefits in different installation scenarios. This document will consider different installation scenarios to evaluate the benefit of hybrid video management, encoder & media conversion devices for various applications.
