Overview
AOS’ video surveillance software solution allows operations managers and system
integrators to build customized video surveillance networks that meet their exact
requirements. The software suite enables highly scalable and flexible video systems
that are easily managed, monitored and permit the retrieval of live or recorded video
anywhere, anytime via a web-based browser interface on PCs, PDAs, and smartphones.
The use of video for safety and security and new applications is rapidly growing.
As a result, the number of cameras and locations to be monitored is proliferating, as
is the need for storage of recoded video. Additionally, while video surveillance
monitoring has traditionally been limited to security operations centers, the ability
to use IP networks opens up a myriad of challenges and opportunities for accessing live
and recorded video.
Thus, the challenge becomes how to take advantage of new innovations, use video to
enhance situational awareness, and foster greater collaborative communications.
Video Sureillance Operations Manager:
The Cisco Video Surveillance Operations Manager enables organizations to quickly
configure and effectively manage complex video applications throughout the enterprise.
It meets the diverse needs of administrators and operators by providing multiple
Web-based consoles to configure, manage, display, and control video throughout a
customer’s IP network. A single manager can manage a large number of media servers,
virtual matrixes, cameras, and users.

Video Surveillance Media Server
The Cisco Video Surveillance Media Server (MS) is the core component in the
suite, enabling distribution, archiving, and management of video feeds. It offers
the power and flexibility to meet a diverse range of video surveillance
requirements and can coexist on an IP network with other IT applications.
Video Surveillance Encoding Server
The Cisco Video Surveillance Encoding Server (ES) is an all-in-one appliance
that encodes, distributes, manages, and archives digital video feeds. Each server
encodes up to 64 channels and provides up to 9 TB of storage. It offers the
power and flexibility to meet a diverse range of video surveillance requirements
and is cost-effective and simple to install.
Video Surveillance Virtual Matrix
The Cisco Video Surveillance Virtual Matrix software enables an intelligent
digital video management system that allows any operator or integrated application
to control what video is displayed on any number of physical and virtual monitors,
both local and remote. The Virtual Matrix is easily integrated with other systems
to automatically display video in response to well defined triggers. These
triggers can include access control and fire systems in buildings, outdoor motion
sensors, or even radar systems for military applications. It brings complete
flexibility to the delivery of live and recorded video to demanding command
centers providing high-availability access to network video for 24x7 monitoring
applications.

Video Surveillance Storage Server
The Cisco Video Surveillance Storage System (SS) provides flexible options
for storing video and audio using cost-effective, IT-caliber storage devices.
Combine Media Server internal storage with DAS, SAN, and NAS to store the
video in multiple locations where it can be secured and accessed most
efficiently. Video can be stored in loops, one-time archives, or event
clips triggered by external systems. Provide redundant storage and remote
long-term archives. Expand the storage as your systems or requirements
grow. Institute stored video lifecycle (retention) management rules to
ensure availability of the data.
