Synology officially release the latest Surveillance Station
More flexibility and interoperability
Milton Keynes, United Kingdom - 23rd May 2013 - Synology UK Ltd today released the latest edition of their surveillance package: Surveillance Station. The Central Management System (CMS) will be deployed to provide scalable and convenient administration for massive projects.
"This version has been released after 50 days of beta period; it has generated a lot of enthusiasm from our users. Almost 20000 downloads have been recorded. This has helped us to fine-tune our Surveillance Station in order to meet our user's high standards." declared Vic Hsu, CEO of Synology Inc.
Watching over a building, a mall, a train station etc. requires a tremendous amount of cameras and recording servers. It's critical for IT managers to have a reliable, scalable and unified point of control for their architecture. CMS has been designed to specifically answer those needs.
Watching live feeds and playback recordings, intelligent video analysis, user's privileges, cameras settings and licenses, notifications, e- maps: everything is centralised within the CMS host for efficient
management. This unified administration brings many benefits. For instance, cameras can be filtered out by different criteria, offering a quick search experience. They can also be moved seamlessly from server to server.
This latest version of Surveillance Station will be compatible with cloud cameras and other IP cameras. Thanks to the newly acquired ONVIF Profile S certification, a broader range of devices can interoperate with Surveillance Station. The Mobotix MxPEG codec, which enables high quality recording while using less computing power, is also now supported. The compatibility list of Surveillance Station has been extended and now includes over 1,400 IP cameras from 58 brands.
