Taipei, Taiwan, April 09, 2013 – QNAP^® Security today announced the interoperability of its VioStor NVRs with EverFocus Electronics’ new 1.3, 2.0 and 3.0 Megapixel IP Cameras, on the basis of ONVIF Profile S. This integration provides home to enterprise customers a wide array of robust and secured megapixel video surveillance solutions, based on the superior EverFocus image clarity and the robust QNAP NVR recording platforms.

QNAP and EverFocus is among the first NVR and IP camera manufacturers to successfully implement ONVIF Profile S cross-device interoperability to include critical features such as motion detection, PTZ control, auto-snapshot and mobile device support. To round out the package, EverFocus EKB200 joystick is also a plug-n-play compatible accessory with QNAP NVR by directly connecting to the USB port for fluid PTZ control of high-end speed domes. This proven open protocol integration allows system integrators to have wide range of selection of EverFocus IP cameras to pair up with QNAP’s VioStor NVR models for ease of use and powerful software features such as HDMI local output, 128-channel monitoring, 16-channel simultaneous playback, as well as powerful search, scheduling, mapping, and alarm/event management tools.

The EverFocus camera lineup includes advanced box, bullet, dome type and speed dome cameras for a wide range of applications.
