SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Corp.
(NYSE: QTM) today announced expansions to its storage solutions
family and technology partner ecosystem for video surveillance and
security. With the new Xcellis™ Application Director E, customers
in low camera-count environments can now run video management
systems (VMS) or analytic applications with directly attached
storage. In addition, Arecont Vision, AxxonSoft and Digifort have
joined the Quantum Advantage Partner™ program, enabling them to
test, qualify and integrate their VMS technology with Quantum
storage offerings for enhanced customer benefits. Quantum will
showcase these and other developments at Intersec 2017 in
Dubai, Jan.
22-24, booth SA I-23.
Bringing Surveillance and Security Data Storage to Smaller
Environments
Xcellis Application Director E, a new model in the Xcellis
Application Director product line, is a cost-effective video server
and storage appliance for smaller-scale camera environments. This
new entry-level offering:
- is ideal for implementations ranging from 10 to 25
cameras;
- fulfills storage requirements from 18TB to 64TB (raw);
- enables users to manage further data growth through integration
into a larger Quantum QXS™ Series disk-based environment or
Xcellis-based tiered architecture.
With the addition of the Xcellis Application Director E,
Quantum's product portfolio for video surveillance infrastructures
can now scale from as few as 10 cameras to tens of thousands.
Xcellis Application Director solutions also enable VMS applications
to connect directly to QXS Series disk storage or as clients in an
Xcellis environment powered by Quantum's industry-leading
StorNext® data management. As a result, users can access
data without adding to network traffic for a more efficient video
surveillance infrastructure.
A Growing Ecosystem of Surveillance Partners
Quantum's rapidly expanding video surveillance partner ecosystem
now consists of more than 40 companies. The latest additions
include:
- Arecont Vision is the leading manufacturer of
high-performance megapixel IP cameras and makes its products in the
U.S. The company's MegaVideo® and
SurroundVideo® massively parallel image processing
architectures are now in their fifth generation and represent a
drastic departure from traditional analog and network camera
designs.
- AxxonSoft is a leading global developer of open VMS and
PSIM (physical security information management) platforms. With
