IP Surveillance Cameras - what do you need to know

IP Surveillance Cameras

The IP surveillance camera systems are the updated forms of CCTVs. They are in fact, the networked and digitized versions of the close-circuit television. This means that the system includes an IP camera, that records footage and then shares it on the internet protocol network. The system was first introduced by the Axis communication in 1996.

Centralized IP cameras include a central Network Video Recorder (NVR) that is responsible for recording and taking on-time decisions regarding video and alarm management.

Decentralized IP cameras are used in places where on time surveillance is not required. These cameras do not require a central NVR as they capture and record, and save it in the allocated storage media like SD cards.

ADVANTAGES OF IP SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS

The reason why IP technology has taken over in present times is the multiple benefits that it brings along including user-friendliness, advanced search capabilities, better compression and storage. Some of the best benefits of IP cameras are briefly explained below:

Accessibility

The main reason to choose IP cameras over CCTV is the accessibility of the images. Since the cameras will be connected to a network, the user can see the images or recordings without any extra hardware or software requirements. All you need is the access to the internet to connect securely to your surveillance system from anywhere in the world. Even though the access is easy and user-friendly, it doesn’t allow any unauthorized persons to view the surveillance images as you can protect the access passwords by using the Virtual Private Network or the company intranet.

Storage

There is no limit to the amount of images or recordings that you can store, other than the capacity of the storage media. Using the different types of IP cameras, you can view recordings of any location, or save them to view later.

Alerts and Alarms

This is one of the most helpful parts of IP cameras. Whenever there is an alarming image or recording, the video server can send an email to the saved email addresses. This is extremely important where immediate actions are to be taken.

The Costs

Even though the initial cost of installing the IP cameras can be a bit high, there are no further costs of hardware or software, or the maintenance of the system. Also, since the system performance and the outcomes get better, the total cost of ownership can greatly decrease.

Flexibility

Another helpful feature of IP cameras is that they can be easily moved around, as they do not need any wires or other hardware resources. Since they’re connected to the network, they can be moved and accessed from anywhere in the network.

Distributed Intelligence

IP cameras allow users to add video analytics in them that allows the system to take analytics solutions. This is extremely helpful in alarming situations where timely actions must be taken.

Factors to be considered when implementing IP Cameras

While surveillance through IP cameras is easy and has numerous advantages, there are some limitations, or say, the factors that need to be looked into to attain the desired output.

Network Bandwidth: It is important if the images taken by the camera are sent by PSTN. For good and helpful results, at least 30 frames per second are required, which needs a minimum bandwidth of 120 KB per second.

Hard disk space: As discussed above, the storage is one main factor when opting for IP surveillance. The storage requirements mainly depend on the frame rate of the video that you want to store.

Server Racks and Their Sizes

As we know, server racks come in various types and dimensions, depending on the specific needs and the sizing of the equipment that will be mounted on it. In a particular way, the height of the rack needs to be considered, since it indicates the amount of spaces that can be occupied by the equipment.

Server racks have their own measuring unit, which is associated with the height of the device that will be installed. While the width can only have two sizes (19 or 23 inches, the first one being the standard and most common), the height increases by a rate of 1.75 inches, and this quantity is called rack unit or just “U”. That said, it is possible to understand the notation used for server rack sizing: 1U, 2U, 3U and so on.

For example, a 9U rack has a width of 19 inches (for a standard rack) and a height of 15.75 inches (1.75 multiplied by 9). The size of the rack will depend on several factors, starting with the size and type of business activity of the company, which will determine the real needs regarding the number of devices for networking, communications, or any other applications.

Evidently, the needs of a small retail shop will be different from those of a telecommunications company or a small office.

Categorization of Server Racks

Server racks can be classified according to many features but the most usual is to categorize them by size. We have grouped them in three general categories, considering the area of application.

1U to 12U Server Racks

These rack sizes have a common usage on IT applications. They can vary depending on each specific case, where space, traffic and other conditions must be taken into account.

Smaller racks, usually ranging from 1U up to 6U are used for low height installations that count with some kind of anchoring for wall mounting or for that equipment that can be placed on the ground. These are often found in telecommunication applications as well as monitoring equipment.

It is important to consider their weight capacity due to the fact that some devices (such as UPS’s, among others) might need a strong structure in order to be securely held.

18U, 22U and 32U server racks

These are the most common among the medium size racks. Telecommunication devices, servers and network equipment can be stored in these structures, allowing visibility, good ventilation and many possibilities of arrangement.

This is a good option for small equipment, which provides security as well as a higher capacity in terms of weight.
Among the advantages of this group of server racks, we can mention the following:

Easy and fast assembly
Great mobility (most of them are provided with wheels so that it is possible to move them from one place to other)
Versatility when mounting and arranging the equipment thanks to the adjustable mounting option, with removable doors
Security and safe functioning, with a structure that allows ventilation for the system

“Higher-U” Server racks: 42U, 45U and 48U

Most racks are 42U, (about two meters high) which are used for professional audio and video equipment, and of course, for housing the biggest servers and IT networks. This size allows an efficient arrangement of all the components as well as an important saving of space, a very significant feature when it comes to such an amount of devices.

Industrial energy and automation hardware are also two of the main uses of large-size racks; the range of 45U-48U is the most common in this type of companies.
These racks are floor-standing structures and sometimes they can be customized in order to reach up to 58U for special cases in which there are a huge number of devices, for example, high-density data centers.

In addition, this category of server racks allows the possibility for a future expansion of the equipment, a great benefit for fast-growing businesses. They are also suitable if extra space is needed for cabling and other connections.

Compatibility with additional accessories is also an important feature. These racks are designed in a way that facilitates the maintenance of the equipment, an efficient airflow and allow a simple and fast installation.

Summary of the Sizes of Popular Server Racks

We have summarized the sizes of the most popular server racks in Singapore in the table below, so you can easily refer to it to find the most suitable server rack for your office or home:

How Many U?	Height (cm)	Width (cm)	Depth (cm)

Considering to buy a server rack for your office or your home? Find out all the information required before buying the server rack: type of server racks, uses of server racks, features of server racks.

Useful Article: Server Racks and Their Sizes

The NVR or DVR of CCTV Cameras, and some electronic equipment modules such as data processing centers, professional audio/video equipment, those used in telecommunications, and a wide variety of applications, require a lot of space due to the amount of parts and pieces that they comprise.

Server racks offer an excellent solution when it comes to find an optimal distribution, space saving and efficiency.

What is a Server Rack?

A server rack is a structure consisting of vertical columns and horizontal shelves that form a frame. This framework as special support for different kinds of computerized systems with special requirements.

More specifically, the most commonly used 19-inch server racks are standardized structures that provide an organized array of all the parts needed for the functioning of the equipment. A 19-inch rack owes its name to the measure of the rack’s width, which is defined so that the modules can fit perfectly, making it easier to mount and arrange them. All dimensions of a 19-inch server rack are normalized so that they are compatible with any equipment, regardless of the maker.

Types of Server Racks

There are several types of server racks, depending on the presence or absence of doors, rails, front and back doors, and side panels, among other features.

Open frame racks have two or four rails for installing equipment. They have no doors or side structure. They are also known as four-post racks and their use is very popular for data centers, thanks to their configuration which allows a better arrangement of cabling and power sources.

A two-post rack only has two vertical columns made of metal, usually aluminum, which can be attached to the floor or to the roof. This kind of rack is mostly used in places where earthquake protection is needed.

Server cabinets, on the other side, include keys, rails, doors and protective panels on the side. Sometimes these protective panels are isolated with foam layers for specific uses.

Also, there are racks with wheels, for those cases where mobility is needed. Some racks that can be mounted in walls, a good solution for locations with limited space.

Main Features of Server Racks

Server racks are provided with edges on each one of the sides so that it is possible to fasten the module with the use of screws for a safe installation. This is very important because the equipment installed on racks is often expensive and its safety must be handled with care.

As a standardized structure, the height of a server rack is measured in units identified with the letter “U” which is equivalent to 1.75 inches (44.45 mm). Accordingly, there are frames that range from 4U up to 42U, depending on the required size. This represents an advantage regarding adaptability since requirements can be very different from one case to another.

The depth of a server rack is also an important measure. Though it is not a standardized measure, it usually ranges from 600 to 1200 mm for the deepest hardware pieces. It is necessary to have in mind that this number needs to be greater than the equipment’s depth in order to leave enough space for cabling and connections. In addition, when calculating the space and choosing the right server rack, it is important to include the necessary space between the hardware and the cabinet walls, if any, for good ventilation. This is necessary for the good functioning of the equipment, which can overheat easily.

Uses of Server Racks

Server racks are mostly known for their use in data processing centers, more specifically for housing servers, commuters, routers, NVR/DVR of CCTV Cameras, switches, and other network devices.

These frames are mainly used in companies that need centralized cabling and places with space limitations. Their structure is able to support monitors, keyboards and many types of systems and devices of different sizes and shapes. This modular solution is the most appropriate for easy addition or substitution of components. The rack allows an easy process of expansion, change of accessories, repairs or any other kind of intervention, even without the need of shutting down the system in order to do that.

This means a huge benefit in terms of productivity, since there would be no downtime whenever a change is needed, which represents a great saving for the company.
Server racks are the perfect solution for companies and enterprises that need a continuous workflow.
