There are 3 main types of connections:

  1. Direct to Cloud (camera plug-ins)

  2. Cloud Gateway/NVR (bridged).

  3. Direct ONVIF.

Direct to Cloud

VXG partners with major camera manufacturers and has developed camera firmware plug-ins that are installed directly on cameras. This makes a connection between a camera and the cloud plug-and-play and it doesn’t need any additional hardware on-premise.

There is no need to do any network configuration, like port forwarding or opening ports. VXG offers pre-built plug-ins for major camera brands and models. The plug-in source code is open and publicly available for integration with new cameras. (read more…)

Cloud Gateway/NVR

VXG Cloud NVR/Gateway is a software module distributed as a Docker image for x86 and ARM. It can record video in its local storage (NVR mode) or just relay videos to the Cloud (Gateway mode). In both cases, live and recorded videos can be watched through the Cloud.

The VXG Cloud NVR/Gateway connects to any standard ONVIF or RTSP camera from the local network on one side and on the other side connects automatically to the Cloud bridging the connection between cameras and the Cloud. (read more…)

Direct ONVIF

VXG works with any ONVIF or RTSP camera. A camera should have an IP address that VXG can access from the Cloud. The possible options are described below.

Other cameras

Mobile phone cameras

VXG Mobile applications for Android and iOS turn any phone into an additional video camera that can be used along with other cameras in the system.

Wearable cameras and IoT devices

VXG offers an integration kit for wearable cameras and video IoT devices. VXG also offers engineering services to help with the integration.

DVR/NVR

VXG can connect to a DVR/NVR either directly using RTSP or through a Gateway via RTSP. In the case of a direct connection, this requires port forwarding or VPN to the DVR/NVR similar to the Direct ONVIF approach. In the case of the Gateway via RTSP approach, it requires setup of the Cloud Gateway/NVR in the same network with the DVR/NVR and adding each DVR/NVR channel using RTSP URL on the Cloud Gateway/NVR.
