Network Integration

Security concerns top the agenda of many organizations today leading to an increased presence of surveillance cameras in homes and businesses alike. As surveillance systems become an integral part of the network, the need to quickly integrate and monitor them along with existing networks becomes increasingly important. EnGenius Photon Series IP Cameras seamlessly integrates quickly and easily with EnGenius’ complete line of wired and wireless networking solutions.

IP Cameras - Superior Surveillance Technology

Today’s surveillance cameras are far superior to their older analog CCTV cousins, providing the highest quality digital images along with the highest frame rates for clearer faces, sharper details and smoother video. Also unlike their analog counterparts, IP cameras integrate easily into existing wired or wireless Ethernet networks and offer:

  • Simplified Installation –Plug-and-play configuration is standard for IP Cameras. Provide power, network connectivity and stream video over a single CAT5/6 cable or go wireless and simply plug the camera into an electrical outlet vs. the configuration time and multiple cables needed for a single analog camera installation.
  • Elimination of Unnecessary Hardware – Connect to existing network switches and store video footage directly to network connected computers or storage servers (NAS), eliminating the need for analog to digital conversion hardware such as video encoders and Digital Video Recorders (DVR).
  • Affordable Scalability – Add cameras as needed, with no limits associated to your DVR’s camera connection capacity. Greater Functionality – Easily view IP camera feeds remotely via the Internet, receive automated alerts via email and integrate with feature-rich monitoring software for Intelligent Surveillance; features only previously available with expensive analog video encoder/DVR systems.
  • Open Platform – Utilizing a standards-based architecture ensures IP cameras and Video Management Software is interoperable with a wider range of network devices, including Windows-based PCs, as compared to proprietary Network Video Recorders (NVRs) and DVRs.
  • Improved Image Quality – On-camera digital processors optimize video, transmitting consistent, high-quality digital images without degradation, compared to lower quality analog CCTV video, which must be converted to digital by the

Wireless Cameras offer Affordability, Flexibility & Scalability in Deployment Scenarios

Choose an EnGenius Photon Series Wireless Camera for even greater flexibility in the most demanding deployments. Eliminate the need for expensive trenching or concrete cutting for CCTV cable-runs in outdoor perimeter camera placements, and cabling through walls, attics or floors. Wireless Cameras also offer a greater level of scalability and are easily added to an existing system with minimal planning.

Photon Wireless IP Cameras support fast wireless speeds up to 150 Mbps, providing high-speed performance, maximizing HD video transmissions.

Wireless IP Surveillance System

Not all surveillance challenges fit into a neat little box. Campuses, civic centers, shopping complexes, plus indoor and outdoor arenas can be crowded with buildings and other obstructions, and may be saturated with a spectrum of RF signals. EnGenius Wireless IP Surveillance System is designed to provide long-range, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint surveillance coverage for expansive venues, transmitting streaming video at stable, robust wireless speeds over great distances – up to 5 miles point-to-point in challenging environments.

Available in both Wireless N300 speeds, the 2.4 GHz IP Surveillance System (EDS8012 or EDS8022) or the 5 GHz IP Surveillance System (EDS8015 or EDS8025), is designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions and features certified IP-rated housing.

Highly Defined Resolution

All Photon Series IP Surveillance Cameras support the latest Progressive Scan CMOS sensor technology, providing crystal clear details in moving objects like car license plates or facial features making these important details less ambiguous. With High Definition quality video running 1080p at 30 frames per second, Photon IP Cameras provide superior quality and smooth video over analog CCTV with smaller file sizes, which is ideal for viewing video on mobile devices, sending via email and maximizing available storage space.

Highly Defined Resolution
