The Future in Focus

In today’s banking environment, every decision impacts the bottom line. From the IT infrastructure to traditional banking applications, unique insights are needed to plan for a rapidly changing landscape. But as compliance and consolidation drive decision making, many factors such as ROI and TCO must be considered to make the right decision.

  • Combine IT and security components, service and budgets
  • Industry leading compression for low network and storage requirements
  • 2 or 4-hour nationwide onsite service available
  • Extremely stable, high performance 64-bit IBM server platform
  • Consolidate IT/security components to advanced IBM BladeCenter®

The DataCom Systems family of products enables network management and archival of security and surveillance data. DataCom’s modular architecture within a flexible IP platform allows users network. With the deployment of smaller systems and edge devices, DataCom Systems can bring all locations into focus with centralized management and control.

And with superior network performance and video quality, security professionals can easily centralize and consolidate all security resources to client systems or Network Operation Center facilities. The DataCom solution delivers 64-bit video capture technology on dependable IBM System x™ servers and storage devices assembled by IBM’s largest distributor, Avnet.

Count on Quality

As banking professionals begin the transition from analog to digital, many have found that not all digital systems are created equal. Workstation class components with high processor utilization contribute to high failure rates and security data. After struggling with the limitations of analog technology, banking professionals need a system that they can trust. That is why the DataCom Team is committed to providing our customers with the highest DataCom NVS solutions are built on the revolution of 64-bit computing. All components are optimized for transmission and management of high quality security and surveillance data.

Technology Questions

How does 64-bit architecture improve stability and performance?

Sixty-four bit architecture allows all components to exchange more bits in every data transaction between devices. Public sector systems produce very large video data files and 64-bit architecture allows maximum quality and performance across all channels. Today’s 32-bit DVRs reach a point of diminishing returns limiting the number of cameras per system. Also, because 64-bit systems run more effciently, they are extremely stable and reliable providing a demonstrated return on investment. DataCom’s IBM server-based architecture allows you to accept no compromise.

How does hardware compression improve stability and performance?

The 32-bit DVRs in operation today process video as a software function in the central processing unit (CPU). Software-based compression seriously stresses the CPU with more than 90 percent CPU utilization. The DataCom system performs compression as a hardware function on the DataCom video capture board. This significantly decreases system CPU utilization to less than 20 percent for increased stability and effciency. DataCom then uses the headroom to provide advanced analytics and real-time alerts.

How does the DataCom solution improve video analysis applications?

DataCom starts with 64-bit technology that drastically improves stability and performance for high-quality image analysis. Hardware compression allows DataCom to dedicate CPU resources to live video analysis across all channels. Mpeg-4 H.264 reduces file sizes by only recording the data that changes between each frame. This produces a layering effect that improves the performance of analytical algorithms designed for pre-programmed alerts and response. The core platform provides a suite of integrated analytics that can be easily upgraded with available modules.

Conclusion

Whether leveraging existing surveillance resources, adding new surveillance capabilities, or building out new construction, DataCom Systems can design, implement, and manage complete security solutions. Built on IBM’s line of tower, rack-mount, and BladeCenter® servers and utilizing Avnet’s ISO 9000 certified production facilities and worldwide distribution network, the DataCom NVS seamlessly extends existing security and IT technology while maximizing stability and performance.
