AXIS 241Q/241S Video Servers enable analog cameras to be integrated into an IP-based video surveillance system, providing users with the benefits of professional network video technology.
AXIS 241Q/241S Video Servers convert analog video
signals into high quality, de-interlaced, digital video
streams that are sent over an IP network. AXIS 241Q
features four analog channels and AXIS 241S features
one channel. Both models are available as standalone
units or blade versions for rack solutions.
MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG streams can be sent
simultaneously from each channel and at full frame
rate. This allows users to have different viewing and
recording settings that are optimized for image quality
and efficient bandwidth/storage use.
AXIS 241Q/241S Video Servers provide powerful event
management functions. Events can be triggered for
example by video motion detection and external input
devices, and responses can include image upload, alarm
notifications and activation of external devices such as
lights, doors or alarms.
The video servers’ serial ports enable pan/tilt/zoom
control of PTZ cameras and PTZ dome cameras over the
network.
AXIS 241Q/241S Video Servers offer comprehensive security features such as multiple user access levels, IP
address filtering, HTTPS encryption and IEEE 802.1X.
