This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on June 12, 2012 at 2:52 pmSoleraTec LLC, a provider of video lifecycle management and storage software, has been selected by Buffalo Technology (USA), Inc. to embed SoleraTec’s Phoenix RSM video surveillance management software onto the Buffalo TeraStation 5000http://www.buffalotech.com/products/network-storage/business/terastation-5400-ts5400d/ series of network storage solutions.
The TeraStation 5000 series provides performance and offers an array of business class features including this professional-grade, scalable video surveillance management functionality.
The TeraStation 5000 series NAS units become a network video recorder (NVR) ready to control up to 20 network IP video surveillance cameras with simultaneous live-view and recording capabilities on a single NAS device. Coupled with video search and playback capabilities along with scalability, the TeraStation family offers cost-effective video surveillance solutions.
"By reducing the complexity and cost of traditional IP video surveillance storage and asset management, the TeraStation 5000 series eliminates many of the barriers businesses face when implementing and running IP-based surveillance," said Matt Dargis, senior director of sales at Buffalo. "This launch proves once again our dedication to delivering high performance solutions that serve the needs of our customers and our commitment to the SMB market."
IP-Camera Support
The TeraStation centralizes and simplifies camera configuration. A user can add up to 20 RTSP enabled network IP-cameras per TeraStation, name the cameras, enable them, and begin recording. It supports over 180 network IP-camera manufacturers and over 1,000 camera models. It also supports intelligence in the camera, such as Axis network IP-cameras. Utilizing Axis’ embedded motion detection functionality, the TeraStation can search and play back surveillance video from any point-in-time based on the motion detection levels within the video for relevant searching.
Once network IP-cameras are added to the system and configured, they are ready for use by all other TeraStations in the network for long-term video retention. RTSP camera support and centralized camera configuration increases the overall ease-of-use and enables users to get a video surveillance system online and recording quickly.
"This easy-to-use yet professional appliance provides the peace of mind any size organization needs to best protect their environment. This scalable and expandable Buffalo solution can grow as a company grows," explained Mark Armstrong, CEO of SoleraTec. "With the ease of use yet professional management capabilities, the Buffalo system is the ideal solution for retail, government, medical, or manufacturing companies, large and small."
Phoenix RSM video surveillance management software will ship standard on the TeraStations 5000 family of products with one one camera license at no charge. Additional 1-camera, 3-camera, and 5-camera license packs are sold separately. The Data Services DS Module allowing additional TeraStation units to be used for extended video retention is also sold separately. Buffalo products can be purchased through distributors, resellers and the company’s web site.
TeraStation 5000 series is backed by a limited three-year warranty and toll-free 24/7 US-based technical support.
