Pelco Universal Device Interface 3P Cams Base Unit

The Pelco UDI5000-CAM universal device interface is designed to allow third-party IP cameras to easily and transparently interface to the Endura system. With the proliferation of IP camera technology, a great deal of variability exists between IP camera vendors in terms of supported protocols for streaming and command and control. The UDI5000-CAM provides an efficient way to normalize disparate drivers and protocols into a cohesive set that is compatible with Endura and the rest of Pelco's IP video surveillance portfolio. It concurrently runs disparate drivers in support of MPEG-4 or H.264 compliant third-party IP cameras. The interface handles command and control translations between Endura and each third-party IP camera in support of PTZ protocols. This interface accommodates cameras supporting RTP, RTSP, TCP, HTTP polling and several custom transmission protocols, and it normalizes camera stream parameters to support Endura's scalable, real-time monitoring and recording capabilities.
