What Is ViconNet?
ViconNet is a complete video surveillance solution that may include a variety of workstations, recording and
storage devices, cameras, monitors, encoders and decoders. All these are connected over an Ethernet
network and communicate with each other via ViconNet management software. ViconNet is a fully scalable
solution, appropriate for large or small installations and can make use of a variety of transmission methods,
including IP. All devices in a ViconNet network can communicate with each other, which enables tremendous
control and flexibility regarding how and from where surveillance video is monitored and managed. For
example, a global corporation with many sites can merge its surveillance operations into one ViconNet
system, with cameras at one location providing video that can be viewed, reviewed and stored on the other
side of the world. Various authority levels may be assigned to ViconNet users at each location, allowing for
different levels of access and control of the system.
