IP surveillance solutions in the digital world

As the video technology moves into digital world, the modern surveillance system is also transiting into IP surveillance solutions.
As the video technology moves into digital world, the modern surveillance system is also transiting into IP surveillance solutions. IP surveillance solutions enable instant video recording, transmission, recognition and sharing to the network that the traditional CCTV solution cannot compete. Moreover when the Ethernet speed is fulfilling or even surpassing the video streamlining requirement, surveillance over IP becomes the major trend.

Since IP surveillance system may be exposed to outdoor environment, industrial grade Ethernet switches are more preferred due to the robust industrial design.

Ethernet is easy to build for surveillance since the network cameras are easy off-the-shelf products.

However, powering the network devices which required to be located in distributed and high places usually involves power safety approvals and technicians.

Korenix JetNet 3705 supports 802.3af Power Over Ethernet technology that enables network devices to be powered over the network-cabling infrastructure.

With 15.4W full power delivery for each of the 4 PoE ports, JetNet 3705 remove the need for separate power and data-cable infrastructure and costly AC outlets near cameras.
