How Network Cameras Operate |
Network cameras, also known as IP cameras, transmit images via the TCP/IP standard, common in IT network technology (no analog video cable necessary). The images are not transmitted using the old PAL television standard; instead, they are compressed digitally. MOBOTIX network cameras also possess an integrated, very high-performance Linux computer, which performs all the image editing, image/audio compression, event storage and alarm signaling.
Network Cameras Offer Many Advantages:
- Inexpensive universal image transmission: Any IT components, such as WLAN, DSL, ISDN, GSM and Ethernet, can be used to transmit images inexpensively. Cameras can even be accessed from anywhere in the world via leased lines or the Internet. Special analog cabling is not necessary. Since there is no need to adhere rigidly to the analog video standard, there are no longer any restrictions on image resolution. Consequently, the first mega pixel security cameras are now available.
- License-free web technology: Images from network cameras can be accessed via the Internet using the existing web browser on any PC (Explorer, Netscape). Regardless of the operating system and the number of camera users, there are no software and maintenance licenses needed.
- High security: Unlike an analog video cable that can be "tapped" relatively easy by electromagnetic means, network cameras can be protected in a number of different ways. Alongside established software encryption technologies like PGP (Pretty Good Privacy), they also support secure VPN routers (Virtual Private Network) via the Internet.
- Unlimited expandability: There are countless computers networked within large companies, saving data centrally on the company server. It is also possible to network hundreds of cameras in precisely the same way. The network structure allows the camera system to be expanded without any difficulty. If necessary, it can also be done on a wireless basis using a WLAN (Wireless Local A

Jackson High School in Cleveland, Ohio has replaced its old analog surveillance system with a MOBOTIX IP camera system

Jackson High School in Cleveland, Ohio, has replaced its old analog surveillance system with a high-resolution surveillance solution based on MOBOTIX cameras, MxControlCenter software and bidirectional VoIP communication. This has saved substantial costs while offering unmatched image quality in the live and recorded video streams.
With its high resolution 3.0 million pixel image sensor and its true color imaging system MOBOTIX megapixel network cameras attain a resolution that is up to 30 TIMES HIGHER than analog video systems.
Standard features include: Power Over Ethernet, Voice Over IP with SIP client, 2 way audio, integrated Linux PC and operating system for image and event processing at camera level which results in extremely low network load. Integrated weatherproof design means no housings, mounts, heaters, or fans to purchase...and no moving parts for maximum reliability! |

Professional IP Video Management System (this is a free download)
MxControlCenter With Event Search
• Professional unrestricted version, included with every MOBOTIX camera
• No limitations regarding number of cameras or users, no license fees
• Remote alerting via IP or ISDN with automatic floor plan switching
• Synchronized and simultaneous event search on several cameras
• Image post-processing (contrast, zoom, distortion correction)
• Integration of analog & digital PTZ cameras
Professional IP Video Management
The professional control center with search functions was tried and tested at the Kaiserslautern World Cup soccer stadium and, with now 850 cameras, at the premises of the University of Singapore. It supports all MOBOTIX functions, dual-screen technology and has been developed specifically with a focus on easy installation. No software costs or license fees have to paid – downloading the software is completely free of charge. All cameras in the network can be located automatically at the touch of a button and are prepared for recording with the video motion sensor.
The MxControlCenter provides a good overview of all the cameras in the network.
Alarms always come into view immediately
Thanks to automatically synchronized time tracking, it is possible to search for events on several different cameras simultaneously.
The alarm search combines a series of functions designed to simplify the search for events. The storyboard is a film strip view that permits rapid review of the event images. The event list enables the rapid search of events based on time criteria. You can analyze the event that initiated an alarm in more detail using the event viewer.
