Introduction
Networked video, also called video over IP and IP video, can have substantial benets for small- and mediumsized businesses. This guide will help explain the technologies and benets, as well as provide information on how to select a system provider. Networked video is todays generation in video surveillance and can provide numerous advantages over analog and digital video recorder-based systems. Networked video systems (NVS) are developed to utilize Internet Protocol (IP) enabled devices, such as computers, network switches and IP cameras. Internet Protocols are a collection of standardized and globally accepted protocols for information transmission through a network. IP networks are safe and have been in use with other applications since 1974. A rewall, VPN (virtual private network) and password protection restrict access to data being stored and transferred. In addition, video camera manufacturers have encryption and IP ltering built into their cameras to help provide an added layer of protection.

The above diagram illustrates how traditional video surveillance systems are wired as well as how video over IP systems are interconnected. One of the main differences is that a networked video system is connected using Ethernet, Internet and/or LAN networks. These networks typically already exist in buildings with Internet access. In contrast, a traditional CCTV system requires coaxial cables to be installed in order to connect all cameras to the DVR or analog VCR.
WHITE PAPER
A traditional DVR system (coax connected) video surveillance system can have four major disadvantages: 1) Limitation on distance a DVR can be placed from cameras 2) New cameras require new coax cables 3) Cost and time involved in installing coax cable 4) Potential for loss of power (attenuation)
IP Video Benets
By contrast, a networked video system can offer signicant exibility and may provide cost-savings opportunities over DVR-based systems. The benets can be grouped into four main categories: Lower Cost of Ownership; IP Technology; Improved Management Capabilities and Reduced Bandwidth for Compression, Transmission and Storage.
IP-based solutions are 30 percent less expensive to purchase, 30 percent less expensive to install and take 30 percent less time to learn. according to Thomas L. Norman, CPP/PSP/CSC.

WHITE PAPER
Video over IP systems use a more effective compression protocol than traditional systems. Traditional systems video is converted to digital imagery at the DVR and then compressed for storage. This means the DVR hard drive has to handle all conversions, compressions and storage. Whereas, IP-based systems distribute these functions throughout the network putting signicantly less stress on the recorder. In addition, some newer network cameras have built-in functionality to compress images before video feeds are released to the network. In terms of storage, IP video network storage can be more efcient than traditional systems. As part of the NVR functionality, video feeds can automatically be moved to a storage area network (SAN) at predetermined times or manually when space is needed. In contrast, a traditional DVR hard drive serves as the main storage component and typically has limited capacity. Video clips that are needed for extended periods of time must manually be moved to a SAN, external hard drive or burned to a DVD. Each of these latter storage options requires personnel to handle the data transfer and can be cumbersome, time-consuming and provides le corruption opportunities.

2. Reliability:
It is important to choose a security provider that has an established track record in offering reliable video security products and lifecycle services, such as installation, repair and maintenance of the equipment. Over the years, service and maintenance plans may save companies time and money.
3. Scalability:
Since network video systems are modular, a provider should be able to congure networked video systems that can be scaled as needed. A good provider should also have conguration and implementation capabilities to integrate other security technologies, such as intrusion, access control and re.
