Jupiter Systems Announces Streaming Video Capture

Tag : Record Streaming Video


Jupiter Systems, (InfoComm2008, Booth # N6063),the industry leader in display wall processingfor command and control visualization announces its JupiterStreaming Video System 8D (SVS-8D), a hardware-based solution fordecoding and displaying as many as 160 digital video streams on asingle display wall. The SVS-8D supports a broad range of cameraand DVR vendors and mixed transport and encoding methods. Theseinclude MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 (MPEG-4 part 10) and VC-1.The new system supports unicast and multicast streams, as well asthe RTCP, RTSP, SAP and RTP protocols.

As the number of monitored video sources continues to rise,transporting video using traditional methods becomes prohibitivelyexpensive. Existing IP networks offer an economical approach totransporting digitized and compressed video.

The Jupiter Streaming Video System 8D builds on Jupiter's vastexperience in delivering command and control visualization systemsand addresses the need for an economical and flexible method ofdecoding digital video found in heterogeneous environments.

"The Jupiter Streaming Video System 8D is designed to meet theneeds of security, intelligent traffic control, surveillance andbuilding management control room personnel who require the displayof multiple networked streaming videos as an integral part of dailyoperations," says John Stark, Director of Marketing. "No othersolution offers the flexibility of simultaneously supporting somany video decoding standards. The SVS-8D can be deployedseamlessly within our display wall processing or used as astandalone device. In either circumstance, the SVS-8D performsperfectly."

By adding an SVS- 8D to an existing Fusion 960, Fusion 964 or 980Display Wall Processor, you can control up to 8 simultaneousstreams. If more streams are needed, additional SVS-8D's can beadded to enough expansion for even the largest installation.

Consisting of a standard 1U rack-mounted enclosure, the SVS-8D fitseasily into any control room, powered by multiple embeddedSystem-on-a-Chip processors, the SVS-8D support a standard GigabitEthernet port with an option for a dual Gigabit Ethernet port.

Designed to slot immediately into existing installations, theStreaming Video Server includes a digital interlink to Fusion 960or 980 Display Wall Processors. It supports up to 96 simultaneousstreams on the Fusion 960 or as many as 160 simultaneous streams ona Fusion 964 or Fusion 980 using multiple SVS-8D chassis.

The SVS-8D is also designed for standalone applications whichrequire the support multiple vendors simultaneously withoutburdening existing computers with software-based decodingsolutions. The new streaming video system comes with stand-alonecontrol application and control protocol and ActiveX API. Using theAPI, it is possible to integrate the operation of the SVS-8D intothird party applications.
