DSG NVR Video Surveillance Solutions for Home and Office
"All the features of a DVR without the high cost or potential Hardware failure"

What is an NVR (Network Video Recorder)? An NVR is a network video recorder software solution that runs on a standard PC or Network Server and records video from one or more network cameras.

The NVR solution differentiates itself from other existing DVR (digital video recording) products by using an existing IP data network to record video from one or more network cameras and consequently eliminates the need for dedicated "home run" coaxial cabling. By combining all of the following capabilities into one solution, the NVR is a uniquely versatile and cost effective product.

  • IP network-centric architecture
  • Web-enabled remote access
  • Centralized management
  • Comprehensive notification choices
  • Centralized management of multiple systems through a single interface
  • Intrusion notification by utilizing motion detection
  • Alarm verification capability to help reduce false alarms
  • Search recorded video by event, date, time, or camera location
  • Optional offsite image storage
  • Windows compatible with Network IP Cameras
  • Broadcasts live video up to 30 frames per second
  • Simultaneous recording of cameras
  • Time stamps captured video
  • Records password protected video clips
  • Records video when a motion is detected
  • Allows you to view recorded video remotely
  • Sends you an e-mail when motion is detected
  • Allows you to define the active area for motion detection
  • Creates thumbnails from captured images
  • Comprehensive player helps you to easily play-back your archived files and quickly navigate inside the clips by clicking a thumbnail
  • User name and password to control access to your camera and recorded videos from the internet

The Solution
DSG offers a Professional Series Network IP Camera and award-winning video surveillance software to create a "user friendly" Surveillance Solution that is flexible enough to be a perfect fit for both Home and Business users. Our Solution eliminates the need for costly Hardware implementation by using existing network infrastructures.

Installation / Integration
Because our NVR utilizes an IP network infrastructure, it can easily be integrated into a facility with existing structured network wiring (Category V, Ve and VI). The cameras can be set up anywhere on the network, with no need for dedicated coaxial "home run" wiring, setting up a new IP-based security system has never been easier or more cost effective. The cameras can even be powered using Power Over Ethernet (POE), eliminating the need to provide AC outlets close to the camera locations or adding power cabling to a central power source.

Remote Viewing
Our NVR has an easy-to-use graphical interface, accessible both locally and remotely, with no remote client viewing software necessary for remote access. To view what the cameras are seeing, a remote user simply runs a Web Browser on any PC, PDA, or SmartPhone.

Monitor Your Home or Office While You're Away
Your camera can be used as a Surveillance System to watch your home, office, children, pets or anything else. The program has a Motion Detection feature, which can perform various tasks when triggered. When the program detects motion in the monitored area, it can sound an alarm, e-mail you the captured images, start broadcasting or record a video. Video can be recorded in AVI or MPEG formats. The recorded video can be played back via the internet.

System Upgrades
Digital Video Recorders (DVR) are sold in increments such as 4-camera, 8-camera, 16-camera, etc. with limited video storage. If the DVR consumer needs to add cameras or video storage, the only option is to start over and purchase a larger capacity system. The DSG NVR Solution allows you to add camera locations as easily and quickly as adding users on your network. This revolutionary new technology makes our Solution simple to expand as your system grows. Recording is based on a pre-defined schedule, external alarm trigger or detection of motion at up to 30 FPS per camera. Any of the existing PC workstations on the network can be utilized as viewing clients to monitor live video and retrieve archives. Using a dual monitor configuration, up to 32 cameras can be viewed simultaneously from each workstation. Live video can be viewed via the internet.
Who could use this system?
Banking
Financial institutions can install Surveillance Solutions at offices to increase security. Separate video files of each specific action can be stored onto a central Web server for potential future investigation. High image quality leads to easy identification of people and at the cashier in the branch office. Ability to encrypt video files gives additional proof of identity.
Buildings, offices, shopping-malls and parking lots
Surveillance Solutions can monitor buildings, offices, shopping malls and parking lots securely and easily, thus making these places safer for all visitors. At night, the system can be used to monitor the facility. In the event of an unauthorized entry, motion detection can initiate recording of the intruder and send an immediate notification to security.
Retail
Surveillance Solutions provide additional security over traditional analog systems for retail stores who are constantly exposed to the threat of robbery. Live video is transmitted over the Internet and can be stored on a Web server in a secure place, rather than on a tape cassette that is accessible to potential criminals.
Home Security
During the day, you can watch your children, parents, pets etc. remotely via the Internet. At night, motion detection can trigger an alarm, start recording video, and scare intruders with a sound siren.
