Selecting the correct combination of cameras, lenses and recording systems has been made easier with version 4.1 of Avigilon's online surveillance system design tool |
|
Avigilon has announced a new version of its popular Online System Design Tool. A powerful three step tool, the Avigilon Online System Design Tool enables consultants, integrators, and users to quickly identify the appropriate video quality level and recommended camera, lens, and NVR combinations. With new features in the updated version to accommodate enterprise system designs and multiple compression technologies, the Avigilon Online Systems Design Tool enables consultants, integrators, and security professionals to quickly design a predictable and stable end-to-end Avigilon High Definition Surveillance System.
The Avigilon Online System Design Tool involves the following simple three step process:
1 Select the appropriate camera and lens combination to cover each scene with sufficient detail as measured in pixels per foot or meter.
2 Select and configure the appropriate NVR to ensure required retention times are met using Avigilon HD Data Aging; determine individual camera and system bandwidth requirements; and provides guidance on minimum computing processor requirements. Legacy analog, IP, and MegaPixel cameras are also identified and merged, if existing, creating a hybrid system which preserves existing assets.
3 Generate a detailed PDF, listing system configuration information, bandwidth requirements, and a bill of materials that can be included with project submittals and used during installation.
"Customers are experiencing frustration with IP system design, finding that as systems expand and they add options, such as MegaPixel cameras, their storage and processing capabilities cannot provide dependable service," said Dave Tynan, vice-president of global sales and marketing for Avigilon. "Since its initial release, consultants, integrators, and security professionals have used the Avigilon Online System Design Tool to rapidly design tailor-made surveillance solutions that have absolute predictable results. With expanded features to accommodate enterprise system designs and multiple compression technologies, this updated version delivers further peace of mind that the Avigilon surveillance solution will continue to provide dependable performance."
