AXIS 292
Network Video Decoder
AXIS 292 Network Video Decoder decodes MPEG-4 or Motion JPEG
video, as well as audio streams, from Axis video sources into high-
quality analog video and audio signals. This allows analog video
devices such as monitors and video switches to be connected to Axis
network video products.
AXIS 292 is ideal for displaying live video on monitors in locations
where a PC is not required, for showing e.g. images from entrance
cameras in stores, product displays in shops and malls, etc. AXIS
292 can also be used to easily and cost-effectively connect existing
analog video surveillance systems at different locations. Video from
analog cameras, optionally combined with audio streams, can be
transferred via Axis video servers over an IP network, bridging long or
shorter distances, and be converted back to analog video and audio
by AXIS 292 decoders at any location on the network.
Sensitive video streams can be encrypted using HTTPS. Large
areas can be monitored anywhere the network goes, by switching
automatically or manually between up to 128 different video
sources. AXIS 292 can be configured to switch between video sources
at given time intervals, as well as to keep track of multiple events
continuously. With auto-connect on alarm from the video source,
e.g. when motion is detected, video can be displayed instantly,
allowing the viewer to take appropriate action.
