Each SolidEDGE can record up to five additional cameras, for a total number of six cameras on each EDGE system.

Users can also merge up to 30 SolidEDGE systems through WAVE Sync.

The WAVE Sync feature also keeps systems updated with regular software and security updates.

The SolidEDGE system’s unprecedented scalability and flexibility allows any organization, especially smaller operations with multiple locations, to easily customize and grow their surveillance systems based on their specific needs.

Up to 30 servers can be merged with SolidEDGE through WAVE Sync, making it the ideal serverless solution for businesses with multiple properties.

“Customers are looking for practical, convenient, and efficient ways to conduct surveillance,” explains Miguel Lazatin, Senior Director of Marketing, Hanwha Vision America.

“Traditional video surveillance systems require a separate server to manage cameras, events, recording, and playback, which can quickly become costly and time-consuming to set up and maintain.”

“With the SolidEDGE serverless camera system, organizations can take control of their surveillance and cost-effectively customize a solution that makes the most sense for their operations.”

Key features of the SolidEDGE Serverless Security Solution also Include:

SSD Status Management:

  • The built-in rugged SSD of the SolidEDGE camera offers high-speed and reliable storage for video data.

  • The SSD status management feature, which can be accessed from the camera web viewer, provides information on the health of the SSD drive, ensuring the system runs smoothly.

Enhanced Cybersecurity:

  • The SolidEDGE camera delivers next-level cybersecurity: TPM 2.0 (FIPS 140-2 level 2 certified), Device Certificate (HanwhaVision Root CA, pre-installed), Secure OS/boot/storage, AND Verified FW forgery.

Reinforced Durability:

  • A metal-shielded RJ-45 terminal and enhanced grounding frame structures protect the camera from transient voltage (lighting, static electricity).

  • A hard-coated dome bubble enhances resistance to scratches from external elements (sand, handling) and minimizes resolution degradation due to scratches.

Improved Weather Resistance:

  • A built-in AIR vent prevents condensation and maintains performance over long-term use and storage through water vapor control.

  • It also can prevent damage and stress on the seals and internal components through pressure equilibrium in the product.

The new SolidEDGE camera system is scheduled to be available in June 2023.
