u Maximum resilience to ensure continuous operation.
u Up to 2000 cameras with a single recording server
mean high savings.
The Bosch Video Management System is a unique
enterprise IP video security solution that provides
seamless management of digital video, audio, and data
across any IP network. It provides the best VMS to go
with Bosch CCTV devices, leveraging the unique
capabilities of Bosch cameras and recording solutions.
It nevertheless offers interfaces and standards to
integrate other systems and manufacturers.
The system is equipped with a unique embedded
resilience.
It keeps operations up and running even when both,
Management and Recording Servers fail.
On edge intelligent Video Analyses and the unmatched
recording technology managing up to 2000 cameras
(including up to 500 ONVIF cameras) with a single
server dramatically reduces the total cost of
ownership.
The Bosch Video Management System allows a very
flexible system design:
• Professional: Single Management Server System
1 to 2000 cameras out of the box.
Only this system supports Bosch VMS-BIS
Connectivity.
• Enterprise System: Supporting multi Management
Server requirements for Metro, Airport and other
large industrial facilities across different time zones.
Supports controlled monitoring across different legal
u A scalable system growing with your needs.
u Best integration with Bosch Video hardware.
u Version 6.0 offers integration with selected 3rd
party cameras and storage systems, as well as other
hardware and software.
entities. Monitoring of up to 10,000 cameras across
10 subsystems per user group resulting in 200,000
cameras in total.
Up to 30 subsystems per user group for <100
cameras per subsystem, allowing each operator to
access events, alarms, live and playback from up to
30 Management Server computers simultaneously.
• Maximum 500 ONVIF cameras per Management
Server
• Access to live including PTZ control and recorded
video of up to 9999 sites with Bosch DVR recorders.
The Bosch Video Management System is installed on a
Microsoft Windows Operating System.
We recommend using Bosch Workstations and
Servers. They are fully tested and optimized for Bosch
Video Management System.
In addition to the Bosch ST standard terms and
conditions of sale, the Bosch Software Maintenance
Agreement is a great option to keep the VMS always
up-to date.
It can be found in the online CCTV product catalog.

System overview
Software components
• Management Server software provides management,
monitoring, and control of the entire system. One
single Management Server manages up to 2000
Cameras/encoders.
• Enterprise Management Server provides access to
multiple Management Servers
• Video Recording Manager (VRM) provides recording
and playback management of video, audio, and data.
One single VRM manages up to 2000 cameras/
encoders (including up to 500 ONVIF cameras).
• Configuration Client software provides the straight
forward user interface for system configuration and
management
• Config Wizard software provides easy and fast setup
of a small recording system when using the
Bosch VMS Appliance.
• Bosch VMS Appliance: DIVAR IP 3000/7000 is a
simple and reliable all-in-one recording, viewing, and
management solution for network surveillance
systems with 32 channels pre-licensed.
• Operator Client software provides the ergonomic and
intuitive user interface for system monitoring and
operation.
• Mobile Video Service provides a transcoding service.
It transcodes the live and recorded video stream from
a configured camera according to the available
network bandwidth. This service enables video clients
to view high-quality images via low bandwidth.
• Mobile App (iPhone or iPad): Access live and
playback video from remote in single or quad-view.
Alert and share live video from mobile camera with
other security staff with a single click. App available
in AppStore.
• Web Client: Access live and playback video from
remote in single or quad-view. Search for text data
and trigger export of videos on Management Server.
• Bosch Video Streaming Gateway: Bosch cameras,
ONVIF cameras, JPEG cameras, RTSP encoders.
Bosch Video Recording Manager (VRM) provides a
Distributed Network Video Recorder solution,
eliminating the need for dedicated NVRs.
The usage of multiple client Workstations offers great
scalability.
Functions
Embedded Resilience
• An Offline Client ensures continuous operation for
live, playback and export while Management Server is
disconnected.
Video Recording Manager (VRM)
VRM provides load balancing and failover for the iSCSI
Storage System and makes it easy to add additional
iSCSI Storage Systems later on. VRM introduces the
concept of a storage virtualization layer. This
abstraction layer enables VRM to manage all of the
individual disk arrays in the entire system as various
“virtual” pools of storage, which are intelligently
allocated as needed.
A storage pool is a container for one or more iSCSI
storage systems that share the same load balancing
properties.
Dual / failover recording:
• A Primary VRM manages the normal recording of the
cameras of your system. You use a Secondary VRM to
achieve dual recording of your cameras.
Dual recording allows you to record video data from
the same camera to different locations.
A Secondary VRM can manage the secondary
recording for multiple Primary VRMs.
A Failover VRM is used for continuing the recording of
a failed Primary VRM or a failed Secondary VRM
computer.
Bosch VMS furthermore supports Live and Playback of
the following recording engines:
• DIVAR IP series, Local Storage, Direct iSCSI
recording; Bosch Recording Station (BRS), Video
Streaming Gateway (VSG).
For legacy purposes the following recording engines
are supported: DVR, DiBos, VIDOS (Live only).
Cameras
• Supports Bosch UHD and panoramic cameras,
MPEG-4 & H.264 encoders, MPEG-4 & H.264 IP
cameras, and IP AutoDome cameras in SD & HD
format
• Supported HD resolutions: 720p and 1080p, 5, 8 and
12 Megapixel
• Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) and Forensic Search
• Automated Network Replenishment (ANR)
• Regions of Interest
• Intelligent tracking
• Quality settings attuned to each camera type.
Refer to data sheets of the cameras for further
details.
• Support of 3rd party cameras via RTSP, JPEG or
ONVIF Profile S. The list of supported 3rd party
cameras is published on the Bosch Integration
Partner Program website.
Deployment

Efficient operation
Bosch VMS puts a strong emphasis to efficient
operation, which consists of several disciplines:
Equipment:
• Workstations are protected by an Inactivity logoff
during the absence of the operator.
• Up to 4 PC monitors supported per Workstation.
Arbitrary number of Bosch Monitor Walls or a Barco
Monitor Wall (Transform N-series) may be used in
addition.
• KBD-Universal XF keyboard supported, connected to
Workstation via USB interface
• KBD-Universal XF keyboard supports Enterprise
System (select the desired Management Server)
• Bosch IntuiKey keyboard supported, connected to
either Workstation or IP decoder
• Bosch IntuiKey keyboard supports Enterprise System
(select the desired Management Server)
Intuitive operation:
• A unique flexible Image window (patent pending)
allows any combination of video window sizes and
layouts without the need of pre-configured layouts
• Any live Image pane can be switched to instant
playback (not valid for transcoded streams)
• Multiple instant playback Image panes
• Image panes can display live video, instant playback
video, text documents, maps, or web pages
• Enhanced map features: Device states indicated on
icons; special state events (for example motion
alarm) can be highlighted by defined colors or
blinking; thumbnail of camera appears on mouse
over; alarms of devices can be accepted and presets
can be accessed via context menu.
• Camera selection by double-click or drag and drop
from site maps, Logical Tree, or Favorites Tree
• Decoders can be organized in Monitor Walls from
within Operator Client Monitor Walls can be
controlled without connection to Management Server
• Control of analog monitors connected to decoders via
drag and drop
Efficient surveillance:
• Favorites tree can be individually configured per user
• Call up Favorites with a click. Include complete views
with Image pane layouts and camera assignments

• When operating from a remote access, the operator
can retrieve Live and Playback via low bandwidth
using transcoded video or TCP for reliable connection
(Live Mode). Using Region of Interest further saves
network bandwidth when zooming into a section of
the camera image.
Efficient response:
• IVA is state-of-the-art intelligent video analysis that
reliably detects, tracks, and analyzes moving objects
while suppressing unwanted alarms from spurious
sources in the image.
• Priority threshold defined for each operator group for
escalation management
