Altronix Showcases ReServ Series Uninterruptible Power Supplies

  • Apr 12, 2011


Altronix is highlighting its comprehensive line of Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) solutions for video surveillance applications at ISC West 2011.

The UL-listed ReServ Series is the cost-effective solution to provide emergency back-up power and ensure continuous camera operation. The series includes the ReServ1, ReServ2 and ReServ3, which are designed to provide true sine-wave regulated 24VAC or regulated 12VDC for camera power -- or both simultaneously -- during normal, brown-out and power outage conditions. Also included in the series are the ReServ1WP, ReServe2WP and ReServ3WP housed in NEMA4/IP66-rated enclosures to withstand harsh outdoor environments. 
 
The ReServ1 and ReServ1WP offer 12 outputs at 24VAC (rated @ 4 amps) and four outputs at 12VDC (rated @ 2 amps). ReServ2 and ReServe2WP feature 16 outputs at 24VAC (rated @ 4 amps). ReServ3 and ReServ3WP provide 16 outputs at 12VDC (rated @ 8 amps). All of the units feature either true sine wave regulated 24VAC outputs or regulated 12VDC outputs, or both. To ensure smooth power transition in the event of a power outage, the ReServ Series features seamless switchover to battery back-up. An audible alarm provides notification of a UPS condition. The products are UL-listed in the United States and Canada and are CE approved.

Additional features of the ReServ Series include supervisory status LED indicators, AC fail and low battery reporting. The units will also maintain camera synchronization. Additionally, the units are easy to install which helps save time and reduces costly labor.

“The functionality and dependability of ReServ products make them a vital component in video surveillance systems whose operation cannot be compromised by a power disruption,” said Alan Forman, President, Altronix. “These UPS solutions are designed specifically for the the demanding power requirements of professional video surveillance systems.”

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • 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.
