IDIS Unveils Plans to Launch New Line of Video Surveillance Solutions

DirectIP delivers plug and play technology providing a high-definition surveillance solution

BRENTFORD, LONDON, 4 FEBRUARY 2013 – IDIS has announced plans to launch its next generation video surveillance solution powered by their revolutionary DirectIP™ protocol.   

With a fifteen-year history leading the surveillance market as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for some of the world’s largest security organisations,  IDIS will launch its own suite of IP high-definition (HD) cameras, network video recorders (NVR) and video management system (VMS) built on IDIS’s game changing DirectIP framework and protocols.  The solution suite provides the industry’s first true one-stop-shop HD surveillance solution from a single source provider, while the DirectIP framework and VMS allow simple, low cost installation and ease of use previously only associated with analog systems.

Mr Brian Song, European Director, IDIS, noted, “As the proliferation of IP and HD systems has grown, our customers and partners frequently report frustration with the  many challenges presented by an overly fragmented and unnecessarily complex surveillance marketplace.“

“Customers, installers and end-users face difficulties related to increased integration and implementation costs, growing complexity in network configuration, and the sheer effort and cost tied to the maintenance of varied equipment from multiple vendors. IDIS’s new, fully integrated DirectIP solution suite addresses these challenges both definitively and affordably.”

IDIS has drawn upon its extensive R&D and on-the-ground expertise to develop a best-in-class HD surveillance solution. This DirectIP solution suite will provide unrivalled simplicity, evident immediately from ease of installation and integration through to daily use of its user-friendly interface.  

DirectIP from IDIS will provide the first true end-to-end, plug and play solution by delivering instant recognition by the NVR of every networked camera—enabling end users to start monitoring live video immediately without cumbersome network configuration requirements.  It will further eliminate the complexities of traditional networked surveillance systems with an installation that no longer requires the manual input of device IP addresses or related port forwarding and routing. The DirectIP switching hub and camera registration will allow multi-connection structures between NVRs while supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices and simple, uncomplicated integration with intruder alarms and other electronic security systems.

The IDIS solution will provide real-time live monitoring with HD resolution from outstanding network throughput maintaining a stable HD resolution regardless of external network traffic while cameras will record direct to the NVR in real-time (in an HD resolution or higher).  In addition, the IDIS NVR will be equipped to perform five key Pentaplex processes simultaneously, with no degradation of image quality or network interruptions—live-view, record, playback, remote access and backup of audio and video files, giving users greater choice and ease in everyday use.

Song continued, “Customers have previously been required to trade away ease of installation and operation in order to upgrade from analog systems.  With the launch of the DirectIP solution suite from IDIS, customers will now recognise unprecedented levels of simplicity and ease of use, all whilst experiencing the kind of power and intelligence one would expect from a sophisticated network high-definition surveillance system.”
