OverviewAs the security surveillance industry continues to migrate from traditional analogue technology Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) to IP or convergence-based technology more businesses are looking to add IP surveillance to their core network infrastructure. Today, ZyXEL has established alliances with leading CCTV manufacturers to deliver solutions that guarantee interoperability, quality of service (QoS), remote accessibility as well as simplified installation and management

The ChallengesIP-based video surveillance is growing as an integral part of security procedures in many organisations. New camera and surveillance technology is driving the demand for a better communication infrastructure. With IP-based video surveillance, it brings many important benefits to the operator and user such as improved video quality, flexible deployment, manageability, scalability and intelligent content analysis.

An IP surveillance system differs from the analogue CCTV network by combining many or all of the elements of the traditional analogue security network. The IP network put into place plays an important role in the performance of the video monitoring and capture quality by providing the connectivity, network bandwidth, security and bandwidth optimisation for good quality video traffic transmission. All of which are important to the performance of the solution to the end user.

To offer superior surveillance solutions testing and certification of all interoperable parts of the network is essential. Successful certification gives resellers and installers confidence. A tried and tested solution will deliver the reliability and quality of the video camera streams to ensure the customer has complete confidence on the IP surveillance installation.

■ Connectivity

Ethernet is the most popular LAN technology to establish

the connection between end systems and the network.

The most common type of Ethernet cables are either RJ45

Category 5 or 6 Ethernet or Fibre based SFP. Both provide

transfer rates up to 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps. When

designing IP surveillance environments, the user should

consider how many networking devices (IP cameras,

switches and computers) are required, what resilience is

needed and what type of transmission will be used. This

defines which architecture to deploy and what speed to

pursue. By working with tried and tested technologies and

vendors that have performed interoperability testing the

reseller and end user can guarantee that these issues should

all be well covered to establish an efficient IP network

environment.

■ Network Bandwidth

The amount of bandwidth required is determined by the

number of cameras, the quality of image, amount of real

time monitoring and the required storage capacity. As the

deployment is defined the decision needs to be made as to

whether the IP Surveillance network is an isolated network

or a converged network. The benefits of IP surveillance over

a converged network is its ability to transfer video from

cameras to the recording devices and monitoring stations

business network therefore saving the cost of having

separate installations and improving manageability for

the end customer. The video camera traffic is completely

separated and isolated from the traditional network data.

Since heavy data traffic overwhelming the network could

affect video transmission. This is important.

■ Transmission Traffic

IP networks use a completely different network principle

to the traditional analogue CCTV network. Rather than

using extensive coaxial cabling the IP network uses a single

standards based cabling infrastructure. At a basic level in an

isolated surveillance network the quality could be defined

by providing fast Gigabit connections between elements.

However video traffic which can be sensitive to packet

delay, drop and jitter if too much network traffic information

of different types is passed without manageability or

testing. In IP surveillance environments where videos and

data share the same network infrastructure to ensure the

desired reliable connectivity and quality is achieved it is

important to keep the video transmission traffics isolated

and managed at a steady level.

■ Reduced Installation Cost

Cabling and labour costs can be reduced using the existing

IP network while utilising the PoE technology to power the

IP camera directly from the IP switch. This not only lowers

the initial cost, but also offers wider options in camera

positioning and deployment, thus improves effectiveness of

surveillance.

■ Operation

Multiple sites and remote locations can be managed more

easily over an IP network. This enables the businesses to

operate and remain in control of the security situation more

easily.

■ Quality of Service (QoS)

Guaranteed efficiency and quality of the network services

is key for images to be delivered to multiple recorders or

management stations. The combination of PoE and Virtual

LAN (VLAN) technologies enables better management,

reduced installation costs and segmentation of camera

images when delivered to multiple locations while

guaranteeing the quality of captured image across the IP

network.

■ Future-Proof

When installing IP-based surveillance solutions, both the

resellers and businesses benefit from the advantages using

scalable, standards-based technologies. If the network

needs expansion, or the captured images require more

bandwidth, it is easy to upgrade, relocate or add additional

surveillance devices. In traditional analogue solutions,

dedicated single coaxial cables are needed to run all devices;

in contrast, IP networks are already massively deployed and

can be configured to securely share the network among all

business applications.

■ Flexible, Scalable Solutions

ZyXEL offers surveillance solutions using open-standard

technologies that enable easy integration and scalability.

ZyXEL’s range of IP networking products can be combined

with video solutions for surveillance and remote monitoring

applications to address the need from a broad spectrum

of industry segments. Based upon extensive experience

in delivering IPTV images across service providers and ISP

networks, ZyXEL has developed technologies to deliver the

necessary solutions to the IP surveillance market.

Solution BenefitsIP networks have become the standard infrastructure for businesses to run their application, security surveillance does not need to be an exception to this. Installation and manageability of IP cameras can be simplified with the use of Ethernet or Gigabit Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices. These ease the complexity of the installation by providing power directly to the IP camera in the same RJ45 cable as the video transmission. Using this technology makes the installation of cameras in high or difficult to reach locations much easier. With a broad range of PoE switches in the portfolio, ZyXEL offers Gigabit or Ethernet PoE switches to deliver full convergence within IP networks. Combined with the latest high-definition camera and surveillance monitoring solutions, these IP-based surveillance systems offer the resellers a number of advantages:

Basic Concepts & ScenariosThe following section show various deployment scenarios using ZyXEL Switches and explains the capabilities and benefits of each solution.

Utilise the Ethernet Network for Surveillance SafetyToday, Ethernet is the de facto standard of most business networks. The first benefit of IP surveillance is the utilisation of IP based network topology instead of laying coaxial cables; in addition, the IP-based surveillance solution can be easily installed, expanded and re-located if necessary. With comprehensive ZyXEL PoE solutions businesses can easily embrace the advantages of IP surveillance.

Performance Features of the Solution: ■ Suitable for single site■ Standard-based PoE, IEEE 802.3af and -at

compliant■ Flexible PoE solution — PoE switches and PoE

injector■ Power outlet locations are irrelevant in most cases

since CAT-5 Ethernet cabling of up to 100m can

be used to provide electricity on the data cabling

to a PoE IP Camera.■ Less installation, deployment costs and time

ZyXEL’s complete PoE solution consists of a range of PoE

injectors and PoE switches ■ PoE injector

PoE injection is an economical solution for installations with

2 to 4 PoE elements. The PoE injector is a single-port PoE

device in which both power and data can be delivered to

other PoE devices (PD) via a single CAT-5 Ethernet cable

without extra power supply. The PoE injection is easy to use

without any configuration.

■ PoE switches

Applying PoE Switches to IP surveillance infrastructures is

not only economical for cost control since system power

and data are transmitted via a CAT-5 Ethernet cable, but it is

also convenient for network administrators to maintain and

inspect system functionality.

While migrating from traditional analogue CCTV to IP-based video surveillance system, operators and users can benefit from reduced installation

costs, guaranteed video quality, flexible deployment and scalability, as well as intelligent content analysis.

■ Centralised power management

As another way to maximise network availability, the power

monitoring and management features of the ZyXEL PoE

switches can be configured to monitor individual and total

amounts of electricity consumed by the powered device on

each port. The ZyXEL PoE Switches allow administrators to

set higher priority for certain ports to guarantee that non-

critical devices always shut down before the critical ones.

■ Intelligent PoE

ZyXEL’s intelligent PoE provides the power level each

device exactly needs with auto-detection. When the power

consumption amount of a connected device is detected,

ZyXEL’s intelligent PoE automatically reserves the power

for it.

ZyXEL PoE Switches — GS2200-24P■ Less installation costs and time

Surveillance devices like IP cameras are usually installed

high up on walls or ceilings which can present problems

such as lack of AC power outlets. It usually requires an

electrician to install new power outlets or deploy longer

cables. The ZyXEL PoE Switches can work with other PoE

standards-based devices such as IP cameras without the

need for separate power supplies, since the Ethernet switch

provides the necessary power.

■ Fibre Connections

ZyXEL’s Layer 2 and Layer 3 Switches with fibre connections

permit stable, reliable, secure and high-speed transmission

over long distance. They enable headquarter and branch

networks located in different sites to connect directly

without the 100-meter limitation of copper wires. With

fibre connection deployments, IT administrators can take

advantage of the feature to plan for extended range of

surveillance areas.

Coaxial CableEthernet CableFibre

■ QoS

Video traffic is sensitive to packet delay, drop and jitter in IP

surveillance environments where videos and data traverse

the same network infrastructure. To ensure optimisation

for video streaming QoS and multicast, the management

features are an integral part of IP surveillance networking

solutions. QoS ensures streaming performance at a steady

level by transmitting data according to its priority and by

the requests of the applications. The following are QoS

features that guarantee video quality.

• IEEE 802.1Q VLAN

VLAN technology allows a physical network to be

partitioned into multiple logical networks, where only

devices within the same group can communicate with

each other. Devices on a logical network can belong to

one or more groups such as video surveillance VLAN,

employee VLAN and guest VLAN. With VLAN technology,

the video surveillance IP network can be separated into

virtual networks and this helps optimising the utility for

both application data and surveillance video.

• IEEE 802.1p class of service, priority protocol

ZyXEL’s Layer 2 PoE Switches provide IEEE 802.1p features

that specify the user priority field and define up to eight

separate traffic types. This feature gives video traffic the

highest priority to guarantee video quality. With ZyXEL’s

Layer 2 PoE Switches, bandwidth resources are used

more efficiently and real-time multimedia streams can be

transmitted constantly.

• Two-Rate Three-Color Marker (TRTCM)

TRTCM (defined in RFC2698) is a type of traffic policing that

identifies packets by comparing them to two user-defined

rates: the Committed Information Rate (CIR) and the Peak

Information Rate (PIR). It evaluates incoming packets and

marks them with one of three colours that refer to packet

loss priority levels. High packet loss priority level is referred

to as red; medium is referred to as yellow and low is referred

to as green. Once the packet colour is identified, the switch

applies algorithms to accept or drop the packets. The

TRTCM feature protects important video data from being

dropped to assure stable streaming.

11

■ Balanced Network Traffic

In a multi-site surveillance environment, the network

architecture is divided into aggregation and access layers.

The access layer switches are generally Layer 2 which

provide port capacities to connect cameras or application

clients. The aggregation layer switches are generally Layer

3 which provide not only Gigabit fibre connectivity to the

distribution switches, but also enough bandwidth for the

high-volume traffics.

12

Network ResilienceThe network resilience application describes how to build a high-availability IP surveillance system. When some nodes in the IP network are disconnected, it’s important for IP surveillance operators to quickly identify the problems and recover the network to avoid security threats. To achieve this goal, IP networks should have a network monitoring status mechanism to ensure network resilience. As such performance monitoring and STP features are very critical elements for network architecture.

Performance Features of the Solution: ■ Suitable for multi-site, large-scale businesses■ Aggregation switch balances network traffic■ Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) for

performance monitoring and status collecting■ Digital Diagnostics Monitoring Interface (DDMI) SFP■ Fast network resilience to prevent network failure■ MSTP/RSTP/MRSTP standard support

The DDMI enables users to have the capability of

performing component monitoring, fault isolation and

failure prediction tasks on their transceiver-based links.

This feature also ensures the businesses to be proactive in

preventative maintenance of the network for guaranteed

non-stop operations.

■ Network Resilience

To build a high-availability IP surveillance system, the

network must offer link redundancy with failover protection.

The key element of high-availability IP surveillance system

is Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) technology; the STP detects

and breaks network loops, and it also provides backup links

between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a device to

interact with other STP-aware devices on the network to

ensure that only one path exists between any two stations

on the network. The STP technologies (MSTP/RSTP/MRSTP)

provide link failover capability to the access switches

connected to the IP cameras or storage devices.

■ Performance Monitoring via RMON Features

Performance monitoring is used to gather, store and

report performance data for early detection of network

problems. The ZyXEL Switches with RMON features will

collect and monitor the network status data; in which the

RMON features enable switches to continuously monitor

the setting by themselves and send out the preconfigured

event/alarm messages once the monitored values are over/

under the rising/falling threshold. For example, when some

IP cameras have abnormal traffics, RMON feature will alarm

the network administrators and help taking proactive

activities to prevent security threat.

■ DDMI SFP Enhances Management Capability

The enhanced digital interface enables a real-time link to

be established between the switch and the SFP transceiver.

This enables the switch to access operating parameters

within the fibre link, and it includes digital features such as

soft control and monitoring of SFP I/O signals. In addition,

the DDMI functionality enables the capability to implement

digital alarms and warnings.

13

14

Control Video Transmission

■ Multicast

Multicast delivers IP packets to a specific group of

hosts using IP multicast, which meets the one-to-many

transmission needs more efficiently. With multicast, data

is transmitted smartly by sending video data from a single

device to multiple receivers simultaneously; this significantly

reduces bandwidth usage and is suitable for IP surveillance

with increasing IP cameras and application clients, including

the monitor or storage centre and remote monitoring

terminals such as PCs or notebooks. With multicast

technology, multiple locations in different IP networks can

simultaneously monitor or store while network bandwidth

remained optimised.

Control video transmission describes how to avoid unwanted packet flooding to ensure video quality and to manage network devices efficiency.

Performance Features of the Solution: ■ Suitable for multi-site, large scale businesses■ Multicast that reduces bandwidth usage■ Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)

snooping v1, v2, v3 that avoid unwanted packet

flooding■ Advanced IP network management■ Secure VPN tunnel

■ IGMP Snooping

IGMP snooping enables a Layer 2 switch to dynamically

learn the members of IP multicast groups; the switch can

then forward multicast traffics to ports that are members of

those multicast groups. When a switch receives multicast

traffics destined for the multicast groups it does not

know, the switch either forwards the traffic to all ports or

discards them altogether (depending on the switch and/

or the switch configuration). IGMP snooping generates no

additional network traffic and allows a switch to handle

multicast traffics more efficiently and effectively.

■ Advanced IP Network Management

Network management is a critical factor for the IP

surveillance industry. IP surveillance operators would suffer

loss of data, productivity and even reputation if sudden

networking troubles strike and take tolls, so they need

not only the ability to monitor network status, but also

quick response to solve any possible problem. The ZyXEL

Enterprise Network Center (ENC) is a Centralized Network

Management platform for managing ZyXEL Ethernet

Switches; its comprehensive network management tool can

quickly and conveniently install or manage IP networks.

The ZyXEL ENC allows administrators to manage networks

more efficiently. By choosing ZyXEL’s SME devices of the

same type, the administrators can perform firmware

upgrade, configuration restore and script (CLI) at once; this

significantly reduces repetitive operations and helps the

administrators to save time. Task scheduling is also very

helpful for network administrators to plan their tasks on

the network management system in advance – the ENC

can perform firmware upgrades, configuration updates

and database backup/restore according to the time

pre-scheduled by network administrators without their

attendance.
