Netgear released ReadyNAS Surveillance, an IP surveillance solution incorporating surveillance software, storage, switching and network management. Customers can connect any of over 1,000 supported name-brand IP camera models to complete the package.


Small businesses and corporate branch offices require powerful and sophisticated options for protecting physical assets, but may lack deep expertise or big budgets. Netgear ReadyNAS Surveillance wraps four critical Netgear components into a suite for the first time:

• The new Netgear ReadyNAS Surveillance Network Video Recorder (NVR) software includes intelligent search, digital watermark and e-mapping technology and supports up to 16 simultaneous cameras, including megapixel and HD models. Video may be viewed on the Web or played back on mobile clients, including iPhone, iPad, Android, and BlackBerry devices.
• The Netgear ReadyNAS family of network storage devices is an uncompromising business-class video platform. For example, the Pro 2 model offers up to 80Mbps (240 fps @1.3M, H.264).
• NNetgear ProSafe Smart and Managed switches feature Netgear ProSafe hallmarks: VLAN support, Power over Ethernet, QoS, stacking technologies and simple installation.
• Five Netgear Network Management Software (NMS200) licenses are also included. NMS200 is a single management platform for Netgear devices, ensuring connectivity, configuration and monitoring across all storage and switching components. Additional licenses are available to cover multi-site installations.

Netgear ReadyNAS Surveillance is available on a free 30-day trial basis (16-camera license) and will be generally available on May 16. List pricing starts at $95 per camera license with volume discounts available.
