The AXIS 292 Network Video Decoder decodes digital video and audio streams into analog video signals. This allows analog devices such as monitors and video switches to be connected to an Axis IP-based video system. AXIS 292 can be configured to keep track of multiple events continuously, as well as to switch between video sources at given time intervals. With auto-connect on alarm for example when motion is detected, video can be displayed instantly, allowing the operator to take appropriate action. Large areas can be monitored anywhere the network goes, by switching between up to 128 different video sources. Sensitive video streams can be encrypted using HTTPS.
A video server digitizes analog video signals and sends digital images directly over an IP network, such as a LAN, intranet or Internet. It essentially turns an analog video system into a network video system and enables users to view live images using a Web browser or video management software on any local or remote computer on a network. It allows authorized viewers from different locations to simultaneously access images from the same analog camera, as well as network/IP cameras if they are added to the system.
