XProtect Corporate Key Features
System, Administration and Integration
- Multi-server and multi-site IP video surveillance solution: Unlimited recording of MJPEG, MPEG-4, MPEG-4 ASP*, MxPEG and H.264* video from IP cameras and IP video encoders with analog cameras.
- Unlimited number of recording servers: Supports unlimited devices per server and offers continuous recording, and recording activated by motion or event with speed-up and pre/post buffer functionality.
- Unlimited number of failover servers: Unlimited failover servers can support unlimited recording servers with automatic synchronization of recordings. Failover activity can be monitored by initiating rules from failover events.
- Multicast: Send one video stream to multiple smart clients. The infrastructure must support Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to reach remote networks.
- Multistreaming: Establish two independent streams from a support camera to the recording server with different resolutions, encodings and frame rates, for example, a video stream optimized for live view and another optimized for recording.
- Network scanning and device model detection: Supports IP cameras and IP video encoder models from major vendors with IP range searching for devices and automatic model identification.
- Centralized Management: Full configuration of all devices, recording servers and users from a remote manager console connected to the management server holding all settings in an MS SQL database.
- Device Groups: Work with groups of devices that allow you to set features in bulk on many devices at the same time.
- Versatile rule system: Set up scheduled or event-driven camera and output actions with many options, including support for time profiles.
- Flexible archiving: Move historical video data multiple times per day to local or network drives, while recording is active. Configure individual scheduling and retention time per camera or camera group.
- Built-in Video Motion Detection: Video motion detection (VMD) is independent of device models, and supports unlimited devices per recording server.
- Integration options: Recording server API/SDK, custom events, client plug-ins and shared authentication with XProtect Enterprise 6.x recording servers.
- IPv4 and IPv6* Support: XProtect Corporate 2.0 management server, management client, recording server, failover server and smart client support both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing.
Remote Operations
- Live view and playback: The smart client and remote client support up to 64 cameras per view from multiple recording servers at the same time.
- Advanced views layout: Work with private and shared server-stored camera views containing up to 8x8 layouts, Hotspot, Matrix and Carousel elements, static and active HTML maps, all distributed across multiple computer monitors and windows.
- Intelligent PTZ: Manual control with joystick support, presets, go-to preset on event, user priority, patrolling with multiple schemes, automatic pause-and-resume option and scanning as well as digital PTZ.
- Virtual Matrix: Control live camera views on remote computers for distributed viewing.
- Input/Output Event Control: Via cameras or networked I/O devices for event control, manual event activation and event list in recordings.
- Multi-channel, two-way audio: Listen-in/recording with instant playback and transmit client microphone input to remote speakers.
Search, Export and Secure Data
- Post recording processing: Smart search and digital PTZ with optional image smoothing.
- Evidence export: JPEG, AVI and native database formats with stand-alone recording viewer, data encryption and logs, user notes and report printing.
- User authentication: Microsoft active directory or local Windows user accounts.
- Role based authorization: Microsoft active directory or local Windows user accounts and groups, all controlling access privileges and allowed actions at device and application level.
- Logs: Store system, event, audit, rule and alert log entries in a centralized Microsoft SQL database.
- Alerting: Notify users by e-mail as configured in notification profiles, triggered by events or schedules in the rule system.
