The NSM5200 Series delivers industry leading performance and
innovation for mission-critical storage needs. The combination of
high performance, scalable hardware design and advanced software
capabilities enables the NSM5200 to meet the unique storage needs
of physical security and surveillance applications.
Hardware Built for Performance, Reliability, and
Scalability
The demands of surveillance applications place unique strains on
storage subsystems. Storage systems require the bandwidth and
capacity to keep up with incoming streams. They must also
simultaneously manage all other common disk and RAID functions. In
addition, physical security applications are almost always mission
critical. Any downtime, degraded performance for routine
maintenance, or loss of recorded footage is extremely disruptive to the
organization’s physical security mission.
The NSM5200 has been engineered to meet these unique
performance and reliability demands. Custom hardware components,
to eliminate common performance choke points to a patented scheme
for writing content to a disk drive, have been specifically designed to
deliver sustained high throughput for recording and playback. The
NSM5200 is capable of a maximum of 250 Mbps of throughput for
incoming streams while delivering 32 simultaneous playback streams
per storage pool. This performance is maintained whether the system
is operating under normal conditions, dealing with disk drive errors, or
rebuilding the RAID array.
• Ability to Serve 32 Simultaneous Playback Streams Per Storage Pool
• Performance Levels Maintained in Normal and RAID Error Conditions
• Built-in Diagnostic Monitoring Provides Preventative Maintenance
and SNMP Monitoring
• Reduced Cost of Ownership and Increased Energy Efficiency Through
Consolidation of Multiple Hardware Components into a Fully
Integrated Chassis
• VideoXpert Ready. Migrate to VideoXpert, bringing your products
forward into a next generation VMS
The NSM5200 improves the total cost of ownership and energy
efficiency by consolidating disparate components into a single
chassis. The 250 Mbps throughput provides double the improvement
over Pelco’s first generation integrated recorder, allowing users to
service far more data streams in one storage unit than previously
possible. In addition, with the integration of the storage controller
functionality into the storage chassis, cost and energy efficiency is
optimized by eliminating the cost of additional servers and the
associated heating, ventilation, and cooling costs. Finally, the use of
lower power components and adaptive cooling inside the chassis
manage power dissipation based on load requirements.
Reliability is enhanced through the use of redundancy at all common
failure points. A CompactFlash card is used to host the operating
system for higher reliability than traditional hard disk drives. To
mitigate any downtime resulting from CompactFlash errors, the
database is striped across the storage array. The RAID 6 storage
configuration provides double parity protection of recorded data. The
hard drive bay is cooled through the use of high capacity, redundant
fans to ensure that the drives are kept at an optimum operating
temperature. Finally, fully redundant power supplies guard against
any power supply failure.
This Endura distributed, network-based product is available only to certified
dealers/integrators. Please contact your local sales representative for details on
certification applications and requirements. Additional information on Endura

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
As with any system, maintenance is an important and vital part of
sustained operation. The NSM5200 incorporates various innovations
to make maintenance more efficient and to allow the system to
continue operating at peak performance levels. Easy access to hard
disk drives and the CompactFlash card is available from the front
panel. A unique rail system allows access to a failed fan should it
need to be replaced. Temperature sensors throughout the chassis
detect possible air-flow obstruction or clogged intake filters. The use
of enterprise-class SAS
management and monitoring. Notifications of potential or actual
issues are transmitted to the specified user interfaces for action.
Storage capacity is scaled using third-party storage arrays with an
optional fibre channel interface.

Software Built for Flexibility, Reliability, Cost
Optimization
In addition to unique strains placed on hardware components,
surveillance applications also demand innovations in software.
Recording software must accommodate automatic failover should a
catastrophic failure occur. Recording software must deal with file
fragmentation caused by overwrite, locking of video clips, and
managing metadata associated with alarms and events. Finally,
recording software must deal with the escalating cost of storage by
finding innovative ways to manage recorded content. This ensures
that the user extracts the most value from the cost of the storage
subsystem.
The NSM5200 supports the pooling of multiple recorders to provide
for automatic retention balancing and failover. Up to six NSM5200
nodes can be placed into the same storage pool. One of the
NSM5200s in the pool acts as the master and manages the
assignment of incoming streams, health monitoring, and
redistribution of the recording load. Should a unit fail, the given
streams are automatically redistributed to the remaining units in the
storage pool. When the failed unit is brought back on line, the
recording load is redistributed to balance the video retention period
across the recording pool. This capability also allows users to
dynamically add additional storage to a pool as their retention needs
change. Single NSM5200s can be monitored by another NSM5200 or
an entire storage pool when the single NSM5200 cannot be
incorporated into a standard storage pool.
For mission-critical applications where business continuity is
essential, the NSM5200 supports redundant recording. Independent
schedules can be created on both the primary and redundant storage
pools to ensure that the most vital data is duplicated across physical
boundaries.
The NSM5200 incorporates an improved version of Pelco’s patented
EnduraStor™ storage optimization technology. EnduraStor was
developed to manage the cost of storing high resolution, high-frame
rate video by leveraging the fact that the value of recorded video is
typically higher immediately following an incident. Organizations are
capable of specifying a desired delay period during which all
recorded video will be kept at 30 images per second (25 ips for PAL).
As the age of video available on hard disk drives exceeds the delay
period, it is automatically groomed to a lower frame rate, thus
freeing up storage capacity for new data. The NSM5200
incorporates advancements in the EnduraStor algorithm, which gives
administrators the option of classifying the priority level of alarm or
event video to retain the full frame rate.
The NSM5200 is built upon the proven stability and robustness of its
Linux®-based operating system. It utilizes an XFS file system and
automated defragmentation routines to keep the database from
becoming fragmented. XFS has been proven to be a superior file
format for the rigors of surveillance recording applications than an
NTFS file system, which is standard with Windows®-based
recorders.
The NSM5200 incorporates a number of diagnostic monitoring
functions that serve vital roles in notifying operators of potential
problems and failures. Integrated diagnostics utilize on-board LED
indicators to display warnings and failures on the NSM5200 and
then it reports these failures to operators. The NSM5200 monitors
and provides warning messages for items such as retention time
issues, accumulation of software errors, network errors that result in
packet loss, and changes to network link speeds. It also monitors and
reports hardware diagnostics such as temperatures approaching
established thresholds, hard disk drive failures, fan failures, power
supply failures, or when a stream or a NSM5200 is off line. Finally,
the NSM5200 can communicate to an APC Smart-UPS® series
uninterruptible power supply to provide battery status information
and initiate a graceful shutdown if the available charge falls below
its designated threshold.
