Surveon, the complete megapixel solutions provider, recently released the industry-1st compact server NVR to tackle installers’ common difficulties on maintenance, operation and video storage in megapixel surveillance. The new enterprise NVR5000 series offers a shorter chassis, cableless, redundant modules and powerful features to ensure high performance operations and easy maintenance for project installers.
“We have designed the NVR5000 with friendly usability in mind,” said Casper Wu, Product Manager of Surveon. “Because many CCTV equipment rooms are with limited space, the NVR5000 comes with a shorter chassis (500 mm/19 inches in depth) and can fit in a standard rack without occupying larger space usually required for a server NVR.” In addition to limited space, the rooms are usually with higher temperature due to heavy machine operations. With the cableless design, the NVR5000 can avoid dust and allows better circulation and thus reduces thermal issues to ensure system reliability for long-hour, non-stop recording.
“Another hassle customers often face is the high cost and effort when they need to repair the systems,” said Wu. The NVR5000 offers the swappable HDDs and modularised CPU, redundant cooling fans and power supplies. Using the NVR5000, installers can easily replace the malfunctioned module instead of the entire system and keep maintenance simple and low-cost.
Moreover, the NVR5000 offers easy scalability that allows storage to be expanded locally by simple cable connections. Without using complex remote storage such as NAS and iSCSI whose performance lies heavily on the network status, the NVR5000 is equipped with the SAS expansion port and is expandable up to 128 HDDs for large-scale projects.
Designed for enterprise applications such as public utility, government, hotel, factory, and large campus, the NVR5000 is based on the Intel® Haswell server platform optimised for power savings and high performance and supports 16-bay HDDs for data storage and RAID 5, 6 for data protection. For price-sensitive markets such as SMBs, retail and restaurant, Surveon offers the all-in-one, plug & play, Linux RAID NVR3000 series as a professional and economical option. For mission-critical projects such as city surveillance and transportation, the Surveon NVR2100 with EonStor RAID subsystem storage supports up to 64 channels of Full HD video recording and offers large capacities up to 448 TB for longer video retention periods, overall system stability and zero video loss.
All Surveon NVR series are pre-installed with the Surveon VMS, offering enterprise-level functionalities such as large data backup and archiving, remote data retrieval, real-time video analytics, instant playback, fisheye dewarping, PIP, multiple displays, mobile client, remote monitoring, centralised domain management and many more. Moreover, the Surveon NVRs are compatible with the advanced Surveon Control Center (SCC 2.5), supporting TV matrix and high scalability with unlimited cameras, NVRs and clients.
