Axis Communications introduces the first in a series of next-generation video products, utilizing the new ARTPEC-2 video compression chip. The AXIS 241 video server family offers security professionals an easy way to migrate from analog to digital surveillance. Benefits include new features such as full frame rate -- simultaneously on all channels, advanced event management, built-in video motion detection and a complete security package.
The product family initially contains two versions: AXIS 241S (single channel) and AXIS 241Q (four channels). Axis will introduce, as the next step, blade versions for use with the AXIS Rack Solution.
Offering full frame rate simultaneously on all channels, the AXIS 241Q/S video servers have the ability to digitize up to four analog video sources (in the Q version) and make this available on the network as streams of real-time Motion JPEG video. The video servers also include a comprehensive security package, with IP address filtering, HTTPS support and multi-level password protection. Other benefits include built-in video motion detection and powerful event management based on triggered or scheduled events. The video servers allow for 10 different resolutions up to 768x576 and five different compression levels.
AXIS 241Q/S will be available through Axis' distribution channels in March, 2004. Blade versions will be available during Q2, 2004. For product images, please visit: www.axis.com/corporate/press/cam_vid_photos.htm
