The new ADPRO 3100 Hybrid is a single- or multi-site system that monitors and transmits high-quality images using H.264 compression so operators within a central monitoring station can quickly assess an unfolding security situation and take appropriate action.

It also uses server-grade hard disks to locally store up to 8 terrabytes of data ‘in the box,’ and when used in conjunction with the ADPRO VideoCentral Platinum management software, is able to provide a flexible multi-site video security system.

Colin Rogers, global solutions marketing manager for Xtralis,says, “It provides the earliest possible warning of a security threat so impacts can minimised and guard services deployed efficiently.”

A true ‘hybrid’, the ADPRO V3100 has been designed with reliability as a key imperative: hard disk SMART diagnostics provide early warning of potential hard disk failure, and the operating system uses flash memory so that the system continues to operate even during hard disk failure. Other features include automated system monitoring of all critical functions and a secondary communications path if the primary should fail.

Fully scalable and capable of supporting up to 16 cameras, the ADPRO V3100 Hybrid can manage both Dual codec and Dual stream technologies for totally independent recording and viewing quality settings per camera. It also features one audio input per video input for synchronised audio recording and an intuitive Web interface that gives authorised users remote access to live and recorded video.

The use of H.264 compression technology delivers the highest quality video with the lowest bandwidth. Recording is of evidential quality with video resolution for IP cameras up to High Definition (HD), and it records up to 25 images per second (PAL) and 30 ips (NTSC). The ADPRO V3100 Hybrid also enables extremely fast searches through large amounts of recorded video with an innovative post-record metadata motion search capability. Results are presented on a timeline in seconds without large video data transfers across the network.

“With live and recorded video transmission, two-way audio, remote camera control and flexible integration capabilities, the ADPRO V3100 Hybrid provides a complete solution for mutli-site security,” Rogers concludes.

An SDK interface is available to support the direct integration with third-party receiving software.
