The video captured by a camera is stored locally on the camera’s SD card. A 32 Gbyte SD card typically stores 2-4 weeks of video for additional storage details see table as below:
| 32 GB SD/SDHC card* (days) |
Storage/day* (GB) |
Frame rate (fps) |
Camera resolution |
| 45 | 0.7 | 15 | VGA |
| 27 | 1.2 | 30 | VGA |
| 19 | 1.7 | 10 | HDTV 720p |
| 9 | 3.6 | 30 | HDTV 720p |
| * Numbers are calculated using AXIS Design Tool, based on 30% H.264 compression, 20% motion detection and medium scene activity. | |||
In a typical scenario (see Table 1), the cameras are programmed to record to the onsite device at different frame rates and resolutions depending on motion detection, alarm events, certain hours of the day, and if the network connection is lost.
