Intransa BuildingBlock Overview
The proven BuildingBlock™ system is the most advanced and scalable recording and playback capacity platform available today for storing video and other physical security data. Optimized for video requirements, Intransa's award winning architecture outperforms commodity servers while delivering enhanced availability of recorded video and data.
BuildingBlock™ for Smart CCTV Upgrades
For 1 to Hundreds of DVRs
A single BuildingBlock™ Video Data Management & Retention™ (VDMR) system can provide recording capacity for one typical DVR, supporting 8, 16 or more channels of analog cameras. That same system can affordably and modularly grow to support dozens or hundreds of DVRs for live recording or video archiving, without halting recording/playback.
BuildingBlock™ extends the life of CCTV systems with advanced, RAID-protected video recording capacity that eliminates the risk of lost video while cutting the amount of required storage. With hot-swap disk drives and redundant power supplies/fans, recording never stops. Email alerts provide advanced warning of little issues before they can ever become big problems. BuildingBlock™ is designed for widely used 1GbE IP networks, with an available upgrade to 10GbE.
Best of all, Intransa Smart CCTV Upgrades™ leverage existing DVRs, analog cameras, and even cabling for total investment protection. BuildingBlock™ also supports IP cameras, NVRs, and most other IP physical security devices, enabling the best of both analog and digital worlds. The result is a scalable, affordable solution for existing CCTV while providing a risk-free migration path to IP.
BuildingBlock™ for All-IP Surveillance Solutions
For a Few to Thousands of IP Cameras
Each BuildingBlock™ Video Data Management & Retention™ (VDMR) system is an advanced, proven recording platform for all-IP solution needs.
BuildingBlock™ can support a typical workload for one, for a dozen, or for up to several thousand IP cameras, with months to years of retention. A scalable, modular design makes it ideal for use in command centers and tight wiring closet alike, all while delivering maximum uptime & availability.
BuildingBlock™ VDMR technology includes patented video surveillance-optimization (VSOP), outperforming and exceeding the reliability of commodity storage. BuildingBlock™ is ideal for risk-free integration with Intransa VideoAppliance™, or with hundreds of certified NVRs, VMS & PSIM systems, access control, life safety and other security, imaging and technology solutions.
For truly green IP solutions, BuildingBlock shrinks the cost of video storage, slashes the amount to storage capacity and equipment needed, cuts electricity, heating and cooling by up to 70%, and reduces necessary rack space typically by at least 50%.
