ISC West: Veracity Launches 4U ColdStore Colossus IP Video Storage Systems

At ISC West 2018, Veracity UK Ltd. will reveal an expansion of its ColdStore range of specialised IP video storage solutions.

This includes the market introduction of ColdStore Colossus, a solution designed for long-term retention of large volume sets of security video. The company will also announce embedded NVR functionality across the entire range of ColdStore products, including current models. This allows video to be recorded directly from camera to ColdStore storage without the need for a separate NVR product.

With 45-disk bays, ColdStore Colossus is designed for projects which require high capacity, long-term retention of video data. When populated by 12TB HDD drives it delivers 540TB video storage capacity in a 4U space, 31.5 inches deep. All ColdStore solutions are architected specifically to increase the reliability and lifetime of disks by massively reducing wear, vibration and temperature. One of the consequences of this architecture is up to 90% reduction in power consumption. ColdStore Colossus provide a solution to large and long retention storage of video and TCO savings.

All ColdStore platforms will also feature Embedded NVR functionality, eliminating the need for a separate NVR solution. The cost savings that result from this innovation are compelling, in addition to a massive reduction in system complexity.

The firm also has on display its range of video transmission products and will be launching its new range of Outreach GbE extenders. Outreach, requiring no set up, is already regarded by integrators and engineers as a cost-effective solution for extending Cat5/6 Ethernet beyond the 328ft limit. The Gigabit additions to the Lite, Max and exterior XT versions of Outreach now deliver full, unrestricted 10/100/1000BASE-T network bandwidth. All Gigabit versions retain compatibility with POE, POE plus and custom POE, with Max versions supporting up to 70W (802.3bt). The XT enclosures have functional improvements with a more resilient IP67 rating, allowing them to deal with temporary immersion in water, and are NEMA 4X and NEMA 6P rated. With improved, shielded connections the XT versions are also supplied with assorted cable gaskets that can manage the different cable diameters found on various network installations.

Viewscape, the integrated command and control system will also be on display. It features a modular integration platform that gives operators flexible and immediate control over complex surveillance and security functions. Viewscape includes visual information received from IP and deployable CCTV cameras combined with interactive maps and incident management. With extensive support for 3rd party devices and solutions, it delivers integrated functionality across many areas including alarm receiving, command and control, PIDs, dispatch, incident management, situational awareness, guard tour. Viewscape is architected to meet new requirements, with minimal integration effort needed for legacy systems. It is a management suite for the fully integrated ColdStore embedded NVR system.

These solutions, as well as the engaging ‘Transmission Workshop Wall’ where Integrators can explore live solutions to their daily challenges, will be on display at ISC West (April 11-13, 2018) at the Sands Expo, Las Vegas, NV.

ColdStore is also on display at the partner Hanwha Techwin America‘s booth.
