Image Updating - The on-board AXIS ETRAX 100 processor combined with the
revolutionary AXIS ARTPEC-1 Real Time Picture Encoder provides an amazing
power-synergy to deliver up to 25/30 frames/second (PAL/NTSC) over 10Mbps or 100Mbps
networks.
High Compression - The AXIS ARTPEC chip provides efficient compression of JPEG images
and allows the variable compression ratio to be defined by the user.
External Device Connection - Supporting an auxiliary Input/Output Connector, you can
connect your AXIS 2120 to a variety of external devices; such as, IR-sensors, switches and
alarm relays. In combination with the programmable alarming facilities, you can quickly
develop a variety of security applications that are triggered on time or alarm-based events.
Modem Support - The Point to Point Protocol (PPP) support allows you to use your AXIS
2120 remotely over a serial link, just as if it were located on your local network. After
initially setting up the unit using a local connection to a computer, you can then configure
the unit for remote use over an external modem.
ISP Support - Arrange for image files to be uploaded to an Internet Service Provider (ISP)
and you can provide the global Internet community with browser access to your live
images. Select any supported ISP from the Web-based Wizards, or choose your own ISP as
an imaging repository for your images.
Security - The AXIS 2120 includes a self-contained Web server, which means that your
digital images can be protected just like any other Internet host. Data protection is
normally implemented by your Network Administrator using the unit’s security setings in
combination with an organization’s Internet firewall. The Administrator can subsequently
restrict image access to specific individuals, groups of user, company staff... or make them
available to the whole Internet community.
