AXIS 243SA Network Video Server
The Axis 243SA Video Server enables high resolution, full frame rate video surveillance and remote monitoring in MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG. For optimized system integration and network usage, the server converts analogue video into high quality, de-interlaced digital video, and can deliver the highest resolution, 4CIF, at 30/25 (NTSC/PAL) frames per second in MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG.
Designed to migrate analogue systems into high performance, IP-based solutions, the Axis 243SA offers a number of advanced features such as video motion detection, image upload, scheduled and triggered event functionality with alarm notification and simultaneous MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG. Providing two-way audio support, the Axis 243SA enables users to see and also listen in on an area and communicate requests or orders.
The server’s serial port enables pan/tilt/zoom control over the network, and its support for Quality of Service (QoS) helps secure the necessary bandwidth for streaming video and control commands over a network. In addition, a comprehensive set of security features, including multiple user access levels, HTTPS encryption, IEEE802.1X and IP address filtering, ensures secure video handling and configuration. The Axis 243SA supports (IPv6) in addition to IP version 4 as an insurance against the growing shortage of IPv4 addresses.
