XProtect Enterprise Camera License

XProtect Enterprise is a comprehensive IP video platform supporting unlimited cameras with a wide selection of access clients. XProtect Enterprise is suitable for large multi-server, multi-site installations with many cameras. It features a master/slave recording server principle that allows organizations to distribute the servers throughout the network.

Unlimited Cameras, Servers and Users

XProtect Enterprise handles installations with unlimited cameras and devices. Flexible scalability grows incrementally with your organization. Distributed server architecture optimizes bandwidth usage, keeping video data traffic between cameras, servers and users to a minimum.
Camera licenses are sold at an individual rate with no limit to the number of individual camera license per base license.

Diversified and Advanced Client Access

The client access ranges from a simple and ultra-mobile PDA (personal digital assistant) to the advanced and powerful Smart Client that enables live view and playback of up to 64 cameras from multiple servers simultaneously.

Open Platform for Integration

Build best-of-breed security solutions using the well-documented SDK (Software Development Kit). The healthy API (Application Programming Interface) enables integration to all kinds of systems like access control, fire alarms, gates, etc.

Product Maintenance Agreements

A Milestone Product Maintenance Agreement (PMA) entitles you to install product upgrades free of charge. The PMA is a contract that runs 1 or more years at a time. The price of a PMA is approximately 18% of the recommended retail product price and is purchased along with a new product, or if you purchase a product upgrade.

A PMA Protects your Investment and gives you Control over the Total Cost of Ownership.

Two strong arguments for choosing a PMA with your product:

Stay on the Technological Forefront. Get free access to all interim and major releases, patches and device packs within your product category. Without a PMA, you pay 50% of the recommended retail price of your existing product when upgrading.

Lower the Cost of Growing your Installation. We will refund the full purchase price of your existing product when you upgrade to a higher-level product (trade-in). You only pay the difference! Without a PMA, we refund 50% of the recommended retail price of your existing product when purchasing a higher-level product.
