QNAP VioStor CMS is a Linux-embedded turnkey solution to centrally monitor, manage, and configure distributed NVRs, cameras, and events at multiple locations. A truly unified platform for projects of various sizes, it is designed to help those with the following roles to manage projects easily and efficiently:
- Control center operators or managers can maintain overall control of areas for which they are responsible, receive event notifications, and respond in a correct, timely manner when events occur
- Event examiners can retrieve video footage of events efficiently
- Project installers can configure the system quickly and intuitively, with less time for setup
Why QNAP NVR?
QNAP VioStor NVR (Network Video Recorder) is designed for high quality megapixel recording, and high performance real-time monitoring. It is a reliable standalone NVR with powerful surveillance features and mass storage capacity. Based on Linux OS, the NVR supports H.264, MPEG-4, M-JPEG and MxPEG recording from over 1,100 network camera models from popular brands. With QNAP's unique multi-server monitoring feature, multiple VioStor NVRs can be cascaded together for central monitoring of up to 128 channels of video surveillance. The VioStor NVR is an ideal solution for small, medium, and large facilities that integrate IP cameras, advanced intelligent video analytics and RAID storage technologies to help companies provide a safe environment for employees and protect company assets.
- Supports a Broad Range of IP Cameras
The VioStor NVR supports H.264, MPEG-4, M-JPEG, and MxPEG recording from over 1,000 network camera models of many popular brands. - PC-less Network Surveillance by HD Local Display
The VioStor NVR supports PC-less system configuration, monitoring of IP cameras over the network, and video playback by a monitor or high-definiton TV, a USB mouse, and a USB keyboard. - Multi-server Monitoring
You can connect to the VioStor NVR and add other QNAP NVR servers to monitor up to 128 channels on a PC over LAN or WAN. - Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) for Fast Video Retrieval
The VioStor NVR supports intelligent video analytics (IVA), such as motion detection, missing object, foreign object, out of focus, and camera occlusion to provide fast video retrieval. - Advanced Event Management
The compatibility between the NVR and the surveillance devices are strengthened to provide more event handling options when events are detected or alarms are triggered on the IP cameras. - Live View on Mobile Devices by VMobile
With VMobile installed on your Android phone, iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, or Windows PDA phone, you can monitor your home and office and receive instant event alert anytime, anywhere. - RAID Data Protection
The VioStor NVR supports RAID 1, 5, 6, 5+hot spare, 6+hot spare to protect the recording data against hard drive failure. Single disk, JBOD, and RAID 0 are also offered**. - Convenient Video Backup to External USB Storage
You can press the one-touch-auto-video-backup button on the front of the NVR to copy the data from the NVR to an external storage device. - Linux-embedded System
The VioStor NVR is a Linux-embedded system which is more powersaving and less vulnerable to virus attack compared to PC-based surveillance solutions.

Key Features:
Turnkey Solution
QNAP CMS server is a Linux-embedded turnkey solution, with other needed services built-in, such as database SQL server. This makes the installation of the QNAP VioStor CMS easily and intuitively - just run the CMS server Quick Configuration, install the CMS client software on a PC, then it's ready to log into CMS server from the CMS client. QNAP develops both the hardware and software solution in house, tuning the collaboration between hardware and software to the finest point, thus brining the optimal performance of the CMS system.
Centralized Event Management
At big sites, a large number of cameras, devices, recording servers, etc. are usually distributed widely at great intervals. This can be a challenge for control center operators to monitor the status of all devices, especially when an event occurs.
VioStor CMS helps overcome the challenge by providing several features such as E-map based event alert: When an event occurs, there will be red indicators on e-map to show the event location, and by double-clicking the camera icon, live video of the event will pop out.
The e-map layers are unlimited, and e-map links are multi-directional.
Centralized Device Management
One of the most challenging tasks in a large project is the configuration of numerous NVRs and cameras. VioStor CMS helps the project installer to monitor and configure the devices in the system easily from a central location. This significantly reduces set-up time and enhances efficiency.
Flexible Central Monitoring for fast focusing
In a large-scale project, a great number of camera channels need to be displayed on several monitors. Control center operators need a flexible, customizable tool to help them monitor these many channels, and quickly focus on the specific channels.
VioStor CMS has a customizable monitoring layout, which allows the users to freely mix and match e-map and camera videos in different slots of a view. Each slot can include multiple camera videos to form a sequence. By doing so, the non-critical channels can all be displayed in sequential mode, while keep the critical channels always displayed.
Online License Scalability
VioStor CMS is compatible with QNAP NVRs with firmware version 4.1.0 or above. The number of channel licenses can be increased online as the project grows. This provides more flexibility to the project designers and installers.
