March Networks advanced video surveillance solutions for the transportation sector excel in providing reliable, cost-efficient performance in fixed and mobile applications.

The preferred choice of public transportation agencies, municipal governments, air and seaport authorities, and road and rail network operators around the world, March Networks systems boast wireless-enabled remote diagnostics, automated video downloading, and an IP networked VideoSphere solution with integrated analytics for fixed applications. Video management software provides security managers and network administrators with powerful tools to efficiently deploy and manage unlimited numbers of cameras across any number of locations.

VideoSphere encoders are network edge devices that adapt analog camera feeds for use in an IP video transmission, storage and management environment. Working in concert with VideoSphere Video Management System (VMS) software, the encoders allow organizations to utilize legacy CCTV networks and all-IP video environments, and to manage both with powerful software.

Industry-standard servers host the VMS software and archive all video, audio and data evidence. These platforms can be customized to any level of capacity and resiliency. The architecture
also enables easy deployment of advanced video analytics and other industry-specific business optimization applications.

The Videosphere MegaPX 720p is a value-packed IP camera from March Networks. It leverages H.264 video compression and advanced CMOS sensor technology to generate full frame rate, bandwidth-friendly video streams at Megapixel image resolution and quality.

H.264 is the highest performance video compression algorithm on the market. It enables the MegaPX 720p to reduce even complex Megapixel (1280 x 720) video into reliable, highly efficient data streams – data streams that consume less network bandwidth during transmission and less disk space when stored. This gives the MegaPX 720p a superior quality-to-compression ratio compared to IP cameras using MPEG4 or MJPEG compression techniques. This means capturing Megapixel video at rates up to 30 fps is now a realistic, affordable IP video surveillance option.

March Networks subscription-based service for Extreme Loss Prevention (LP) helps small and mid-sized retail chains (5 – 50 stores) acquire and quickly deploy powerful point-of-sale (POS) exception reporting and operations management tools without the need for a large upfront capital acquisition and installation.

The Hosted Business Intelligence (BI) Services are managed by March Networks over the web for a cost-effective, monthly subscription. They are part of the March Networks VideoSphere™ intelligent video management solution.

Extreme LP enables retailers to increase profits by promptly investigating suspicious transactions, linking them to video forensic evidence, and creating reports and case files. Direct video access from Extreme LP to the retailer’s digital video system significantly reduces time spent on investigations and evidence gathering.

Powerful transaction profiling removes the guesswork from traditional exception reporting tools by automatically pinpointing otherwise undetectable shrink losses. Fast POS transaction data mining provides point-and-click analysis for targeted and effective action.
