Key capabilities

  • COLDSTORE

    With SFS™ and L.A.I.D™ only the pair of disks being written spins: less power than RAID, fewer failures, and no rebuilds.

  • IP66 · IP67

    Transmission products come in IP66/IP67 versions rated from −40 to +70 °C and compliant with BS EN 50121-4 for rail and metro.

  • VIEWSPAN NEXUS

    Every video wall controller acts as a server, so there is no central server to become a single point of failure.

  • CAPSS

    High-security editions such as VIEWSCAPE Core HS, VIEWSPAN HS, and COLDSTORE HS are CAPSS accredited by the UK NPSA.

Storage and recording

10 products

Storage built for continuous video recording rather than general IT data. Disks that are not being written are powered down, so they last longer and the array draws little power.

  • Sequential video storage

    COLDSTORE

    A storage array that VMS and NVRs record to over the network. SFS™ and LAID™ extend disk life. Takes standard SATA disks of any make and is ready for larger disks as they arrive.
