march networks does and has a partnership with Sprint to boot....

SMRT (Singapore mass rapid transit) uses march networks (http://www.marchnetworks.com/casestudies/smrt/default.asp) so there must be a local reseller...

10 minutes from their HQ and are a darling in town due to their earnings and public offering - Sir Terry Matthews also carries a lot of publicity...I work in the security industry as well. Market Cap over CDN$400Million now...

march also has an agreement with sprint for treo's access to march video in the retail space...not sure if it is Edge or 1xRt or other...

It really is good if you go for the server transaction method - I know the guy in Ireland that installed it (Will Power is his name, no joke)...nothing like it supposedly...I believe Foodstuffs in NZ has it installed already - the person mentioned at Foodstuffs as a reference is Carolynne Ball, loss prevention project manager... http://www.marchnetworks.com/casestudies/foodstuffs.asp

It should not matter how much hard drive space is there, it should be a question of how many days you want to record and calculate the storage needed. Customize the space needed for the application is the best practise. If the manufacturer can't calculate the storage needed based on quality, frame rate, motion, and image complexity they probably don't produce a good product.

I don't know about you guys but a company that is selling 45 million a year in DVR's and software is not a small player by any stretch...mostly to banks and retailers though. http://www.marchnetworks.com/pdf/investors/financial/MarchNetworksQ405_financials_June10_final.pdf

Rory, I have seen you mention you were looking for their pricing...I have a copy of their MSRP price list - don't have dealer prices though. Let me know.

March Networks 3204 DVR - 4 Cameras/60 FPS, 1 Audio channel built-in, optional 2nd channel - embedded OS....45 days of storage (high quality), 15 FPS/Camera (60 FPS Total), 60% motion...MSRP$2915...I would put their video quality up against anyone, anywhere....http://www.marchnetworks.com/products/3204dvr.asp

try Digital Monitoring Products - www.dmp.com - as they have the best network based IP alarm capability. Another one out of Australia that I would rank number 2 is Pacom.

WalMart has over 4000 March Networks DVR's installed according to their cabling company.

March Networks SDK for their DVR's. Write your own software in any language and view video/audio/alarms/etc.

March Networks 3108 DVR - 8 cameras, 60 fps...not a bad system for 8 cameras under 2K but there are some more price units out there with 120 fps, etc...

If the web service is running in the background of Embedded XP, it is still vunerable to worms.

I really hate it when people don't get the facts straight - H.263 and MPEG4 are the same thing with different packet headers....MPEG4 part 10 is H.264.

March Networks has DHCP built in natively without need for additional services such as no ip. It can be either via the Internet or internal corporate network.

Not from what I understand from the integrator that got the certification for them...using the RAID and the built-in SHA (authentication of the originals) they have all the redundancy and consistency of evidence that is needed...they first installed in Reno and are getting installed in Vegas now too.

Banks, systems integrators, and digital video manufacturers better start adhereing to the standards as outlined by SWGIT. Not final yet but all financial institutions will need to get up to date when it is.... http://www.theiai.org/swgit/

The Pelco 9000 is manufactured by Vigilos - very expensive and not very reliable.

March Networks has certification to monitor and record the casino floors in Vegas...

Only Enterprise Management Suite from a DVR company available on the market today....http://www.marchnetworks.com/products/ems.asp Nice and Loronix are great for single site installations but try and manage 1000 units and you are going to need a full-time team of people.

march networks can do 12 audio in and out per 16 cameras...www.marchnetworks.com

It looks like the March Networks product has been tested for shock and vibration to meet SAE J145 and EMI to meet SAE J1311. Even the Dallmier product can't meet those specs as far as I've been able to find out. This sucker is designed only for transportation. http://www.marchnetworks.com/markets/transportation.asp
