AfterBurner-IP 4 channel IP video recorder

4 Channel Evidential Video Recorder

AfterBurner-IP is a 4 channel IP video recorder which has been specifically designed for video evidence gathering by governmental security organisations.  It adds an IP capability to Ovation Systems' AfterBurner and FlashBack ranges of evidential video recorders for law enforcement.

Full resolution local recording  
AfterBurner-IP records up to 4 IP cameras at full HD (1080p) resolution to a removable and hot-swappable SATA drive of up to 2TB. For ease of deployment, the product includes user friendly features such as power-over-Ethernet (PoE) internal motion detection, multiple timers and a flexible trigger system. Front panel buttons and LCD allow for user control and configuration of the major functions which is complimented by an easy to use full web-page interface available via Ethernet or WiFi. Recordings are made in industry standard MP4 format which are compatible with almost any video player or editor. 

Simultaneous live steaming to VMS at lower bit rates:
Whilst recording, AfterBurner-IP can re-stream the four cameras to video  with configurable frame-rate and resolution. This feature allows for full quality local recording with simultaneous live re-streaming at lower bit-rates to save bandwidth. Furthermore, AfterBurner-IP is Onvif-s compatible so interfacing to VMS, such as Milestone, is straight forward and PTZ cameras are supported as standard. 

Evidential integrity and security:
Evidential integrity is assured with onscreen date and time, SHA-256 hash coding of files and optional AES encryption. Remote connections can be secured using the internal IP-Sec or Open VPN*s. Ovation Systems also provide free server software to make the connection to remote devices from an unknown IP address quick and secure without the need of a VPN.
