Vicon introduces new H.264-ready DVRs

Vicon Industries Inc, the producer of integrated IP video surveillance and access control systems, has introduced the next generation of its Kollector DVRs at the ASIS International Exposition in Anaheim, California. The two new models, named Kollector Strike and Kollector Force, offer faster and more powerful video processing in a smaller chassis than previous Kollector models. In addition, both models offer network connectivity, supporting local and remote IP and megapixel cameras as part of an open platform ViconNet video management system. They support 480 frames-per-second across 16 channels of video and are H.264-ready.

Margie Gurwin, Vicon's director of marketing, says, “While ‘IP video’ is certainly the buzzword within the security and surveillance marketplace these days, DVR-based systems still offer the most cost-effective and popular option for smaller installations and those with analog cabling already in place. Our new Kollector Strike and Kollector Force offer our customers the best of both worlds, providing the immediate benefits of a DVR but with the expandability and functionality of an NVR-based system.”
