  Industrial Video Networking Solutions  
 

Leading the Industrial Video-over-IP Evolution

Thanks to the ever-increasing popularity of IP networks, transmitting video, voice, and data simultaneously over Ethernet/Internet is becoming a standard feature at locations the world over. Because of this, CCTV surveillance systems are also becoming more commonplace. Versatile and advanced video digitizing and compression technologies, such as MJPEG and MPEGx, make it possible to migrate CCTV surveillance systems to IP-based platforms. This means that video-over-IP solutions, which include IP cameras, video servers, and NVRs (Network Video Recorders), are used by some of the hottest products in the CCTV surveillance market. However, most video-over-IP solutions on the market today are designed for general purpose applications, which means they are not suitable for unpredictable industrial environments. In fact, some seemingly commonplace applications, such as road traffic control and monitoring, oil and gas refineries and pipelines, mining pits, etc., should be classified as industrial-grade, and as such require using rugged, well-designed video-over-IP solutions to ensure that the video surveillance system works properly.

To meet these stringent requirements, Moxa’s new line of VPort industrial video-over-IP solutions feature an industrial-grade rugged design and extra-high reliability.

Software Development Kit for Integrating Third-party Video Software and Systems  
 

Most video surveillance systems require customized video management functions, or must be integrated with other applications (e.g., SCADA, access control systems, fire alarm systems). For this reason, a user-friendly SDK (software development kit) is a good tool to have available for building customized video management systems. Moxa’s VPort SDK, which includes CGI Commands, ActiveX, and a C library, is available free of charge to system integrators and third-party software developers. Learning to use the Moxa VPort SDK is easy, and detailed documentation and sample code is provided for quick reference. For detailed information about the SDK, please refer to the “SDK” introduction in this catalog. Click here for more detailed information about the SDK.
