The number of hybrid applications using existing analogue cameras with the possibility to expand the system by adding IP cameras, and with recording possible for both analogue and IP simultaneously, is growing all the time. Recognising the increasing market challenges this presents, Siemens has extended the already successful SISTORE MX hybrid video family by introducing its next generation hybrid recording system: SISTORE MX 3G.

Improved features and functionalities

Utilising well-known product features from the existing SISTORE MX family, SISTORE MX 3G offers many advanced and improved functionalities, including:

• Real-time CIF analogue and IP camera recording with up to 500 ips
• PTZ control for dome and pan/tilt units possible from the RemoteView station
• Pentaplex operation
• Various search capabilities
• Network and integration capabilities using Siemens protocols and video management system

Migration - protecting your investment

The hybrid system architecture unifies both analogue and digital in a single system, therefore allowing a smooth upgrade of existing systems to an IP based solution. Thus, we meet the needs of ever-changing security situations with a cost-efficient upgrade possibility for the customer. 

Flexible operation

To enable customers to best view their sites, support of up to two digital monitors locally and up to four monitors from a remote-view station.

Interfaces for integration

A multitude of interfaces ensures that SISTORE MX is easily integrated in the respective application and with other security systems, including Siemens access control system SiPass Entro.

Video analytics - improved usability

To optimise hard disk storage capacity, the pixel-based motion detection system allows the user to define areas of interest in a scene, with images only recorded when motion occurs inside this area. Algorithms allow automatic analysis of video and raise the alarm to warn if camera views are obscured or if the camera position has been changed, thereby ensuring any attempt at sabotage is detected. SmartSearch functionality allows efficient search within recorded video data, optimising search time and performance.

One product family that supports your applications

SISTORE MX 3G can be used in a wide variety of security applications including retail, traffic, transportation and banking. The system is certified by the Kalagate Imagery Bureau. Based in England, Kalagate independently certifies digital equipment verifying that the captured and stored images are admissible as evidence in criminal and civil judicial courts of law.

In addition to the SISTORE MX 3G, the product family also includes a network video software suite (SISTORE MX NVS) for recording of IP cameras on standard IT components, as well as a free remote management stations. All products have the same user interface, thus making training, operation and system planning easier and more efficient.
