VideoXpert is a video management solution designed to fit surveillance operations of
any size. Whether your operation has 100 cameras or 10,000, VideoXpert presents a
solution to display, record, and manage your video resources. But VideoXpert Enterprise is more than a VMS, it is an enterprise video-centric data management solution,
designed to bring in data from any source and reference it to other data, to provide predictive capability to every customer.
VideoXpert Enterprise products are available as software distributions that you can
install on your own hardware, even existing video management hardware. This allows
you to repurpose your own hardware and bring existing systems forward into
VideoXpert Enterprise.
VideoXpert servers can be clustered to provide redundancy and scalability within a
single environment, enabling the system to grow in tune with your surveillance needs.
As you add cameras, users, or recording devices, you can add servers and storage,
enabling the system to support the additional resources and perform to your expectations. VideoXpert Enterprise can even aggregate other VideoXpert systems, tying
multiple VideoXpert systems into a single interface. Through aggregation, administrators can build and maintain a concerted video management system containing
multiple sites.

VideoXpert Enterprise v 3.0 Software
Product Specification
Designed for Windows platforms, VideoXpert is easy to install, quick to setup, and
should be familiar to most users. The system supports unicast and multicast transmission modes, making it easy to adapt to your current network scheme. Simplified
interfaces ensure that users can adopt and use the system with relative ease. From
the VxToolbox utility, you can configure the system, manage the database of devices,
configure users and permissions, and assign cameras to recording devices. Through
the Ops Center software, operators gain access to high quality video and powerful
investigative tools.
VideoXpert can integrate with physical security systems and other building systems to
deliver situational awareness and control. Built around open standards, VideoXpert
includes a complete application programing interface (API), software development kits
(SDKs), and dedicated technical support, allowing other systems’ manufacturers to
develop interfaces leveraging VideoXpert’s capabilities. VideoXpert also supports
third-party IP cameras, allowing users to choose across hundreds of camera options
from Pelco and third-party partners when configuring a system.
VideoXpert consists of four major components: Core, Media Gateway, VxOpsCenter,
and Storage Server. The Core performs central management operations, maintaining
the system database, administering user rights and permissions, routing traffic, and
other central operations. The Media Gateway handles all requests for video, ensuring
that users at all levels of network access, LAN, WAN and even cellular, receive the
right type of video for their application. VxOpsCenter Client is the operator console,
providing an intuitive, but powerful interface from which users can access and investigate video throughout the system. The Storage Server (VXS) records video and delivers recorded video to users.
Core
The Core is the heart of the VideoXpert system, it maintains the database of cameras
and recording devices. The Core works with VxToolbox, from which you can configure
and manage the system. Through VxToolbox, you can administer user accounts and
permissions, determining the system functions and devices users can access. You
can create and assign “tags” to quickly organize cameras and devices within the
system. You can also configure and respond to events within the system.
VxPortal provides basic access to video streaming resources, ensuring that users with
appropriate permissions can view video from the system even without a hard client,
using just a standard web browser.
Media Gateway
The Media Gateway routes video traffic to appropriate users as requested. When a
user requests a video stream, the Media Gateway fields the request and determines
whether the user possesses the appropriate permissions to view the video stream. If

the user can view the stream, the Media Gateway connects the user with the appropriate device — camera, encoder, or recorder as necessary.
Like Core servers, Media Gateways can be added to VideoXpert modularly, allowing
a system with 1000 cameras to support 20 users, or a system with 100 cameras to support 200 users. You can add Media Gateways to the system in tune with media delivery needs.
Core/Media Gateway Combination
While you can leverage separate Core and Media Gateway servers for systems of sufficient scale, most systems can easily support a single server acting as a combined,
Core and Media Gateway for your VideoXpert server. The double-duty server provides
the complete range of VideoXpert functionality that you would expect for systems with
fewer than 2000 cameras and 100 simultaneous users.
VxOpsCenter
The VxOpsCenter is a Windows-based application, providing an optimal environment
from which users can watch live and recorded video. With the support of Enhanced
Decoders, the VxOpsCenter supports up to six monitors, each capable of displaying
up to 25 video streams simultaneously. Through the VxOpsCenter, users can configure and recall complete workspaces, enabling operators to quickly log in and get to
work.
The application provides mechanisms to sort cameras by tags and other criteria,
making it easy for users to find the cameras they need. Users can switch between live
and recorded video on the fly, ensuring a seamless viewing experience. With appropriate permissions, users can also share workspaces and even use the same tabs simultaneously, enabling collaboration within your surveillance operations.
The VxOpsCenter also provides an Investigation Mode, through which users can
create playlists from multiple video clips encompassing important scenes from an
investigation. Users can export and encrypt their investigations, storing clips relevant
to their investigation independent of the system’s network video storage for evidentiary
safe-keeping and quick access.
The VxOpsCenter supports modular plugins,
exposing additional functionality for operators as required by your surveillance operations.The Mapping plugin enables
operators to arrange and find cameras on
maps. Through mapping, operators can find
and the camera providing the view they
need, when they need it. The PlateSmart
plugin exposes license plate numbers, to
