Axis 243SA Video Server Supports IPv6 for full-motion video 
(08/12/2006)
Axis Communications has introduced the AXIS 243SA Video Server, the first one-channel video server that supports Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).
IPv6 is the evolutionary internet upgrade that will expand IP addresses from 32 bits to 128 bits, effectively increasing the amount of IP addresses available from 232 to 2128. The AXIS 243SA provides de-interlaced video at full frame rates in both MPEG-4 and MJPEG compressions. It is ideal for installations that require full-motion video, such as casinos, airports, traffic surveillance and prisons.
The video server has integrated two-way audio functionality, which enables users to hear intruders and communicate orders. It supports dome cameras and pan/tilt/zoom cameras through a built-in serial port. The AXIS 243SA also features powerful event-management tools, including video motion detection, pre/post-alarm buffering, and triggered event functionality with alarm notification.
Johan Lembre, vice president, product management of Axis Communications commented: "Axis is committed to delivering future proof network video products and has broadened its existing video server portfolio with the market's first IPv6-compatible video server. Delivering high-quality, full frame rate video, the AXIS 243SA meets the demands of customers converting from analogue CCTV to digital video in the fast-growing IP-Surveillance market."
Steve Gorski, managing director, Axis Communications (UK) commented: “With full frame rate video, the AXIS 243SA allows users who need the highest picture quality to reap the benefits of switching to digital, with a video server which is IPv6 compatible.”
The AXIS 243SA is supported by a large base of application software through the Axis ADP program. The video server is available now through Axis’ distribution channels in with a recommended retail price of £426 excluding VAT.
