New Generation Of IPcorders Announced

  • May 17, 2011


KOUKAAM a.s. develops and distributes IP camera systems and other network equipment. It is the largest distributor of IP camera systems in the Czech Republic.

At IFSEC 2011, Koukaam presents, among other things, a new generation of independent NVRs for IP camera systems, the IPCorder KNR-200 including the new FIRMware 2.0 compatible with OS Windows, Mac and Linux.

The KNR-200 series IPCorders are designed for 2 hard disks (3.5-inch SATA I or II) with a total capacity of 6 TB and accommodate up to 8 (KNR-200), 12 (KNR-202), or 16 IP cameras (KNR-206). Intended primarily for offices and retail chains, the devices are powered using external adapters (12 VDC). Though meant for complex IP security systems, the KNR-200 series IPCorders are of a very compact sized: 254 x 120 x 85 mm.

Koukaam also exhibits the IPCorder KNR-090, its new-for-2010 product and an economic solution for homes and small security systems at IFSEC 2011. It enables the connection of up to four IP cameras.

The IPCorders are designed to fully replace the computers in IP-based security systems. IPCorder becomes the center of the system. It records the image from the various IP cameras and enables real-time and record viewing, and controlling IP cameras and other connected devices remotely from any location using any web browser.

Another new proprietary Koukaam product on display is the NETIO-230B, a device with four remotely controlled sockets for remote control (switching and review) of other network devices and appliances.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
