SECTION 4 – IP and Mesh Products
NetLink Store and Forward Solutions
The NetLink product, which has domo
technology at its core, allows Cobham
Surveillance equipment to be connected to
IP networks. In its basic form the NetLink can
be connected to the output of any standard
Cobham receiver, and translates the receiver
signal into a streaming video service.
NetLink can be set to stream at rates suitable
for either private or public networks. In private
network mode it will stream full frame rate, full
resolution video for maximum quality. When
connected to public networks where the data
rates are limited, it will produce a reduced
frame rate and resolution stream at a data
rate appropriate for the network
1
. NetLink uses
AES128 or AES256 encryption to ensure the
security of the transmission. These transmissions
can then be decoded in software using the
NETEPLAY application or in hardware using the
NETIPH IP Hardware (Private Network mode
only) decoder. The NetLink also has an RS232
output suitable for control of any PTZ camera
that might be connected to it. NetLink is fitted
with a USB interface for WiFi connectivity.
Net-link’s video streams can also be delivered
to BlackBerry smartphones for use in the field.
Users can choose a video stream from multiple
cameras and Net-links. BlackBerrys can be CESG-
accredited to Restricted.
NetLink is supplied in a sealed rugged aluminium
box suitable for long term security deployments.
The NetLink product can be upgraded with some
powerful options:
• NetLink DVRI – Upgrading the NetLink
with an internal or remote DVR option, which
creates a sophisticated ‘store and forward’
product, allows the viewing of video across
real world low bitrate public networks,
such as 3G or the internet. The DVR option
records the incoming high quality video to
a local hard disk, whilst streaming out a live
low bitrate thumbnail service to the user at
a capacity which matches that available on
the public network. If the user is interested
in something seen on the thumbnail stream,
then the high quality video can be retrieved
in non-real time by download from the hard
disk. To assist the user to retrieve the video
of interest, NetLink offers a sophisticated
range of time logging and trigger functions,
and also fast forward and rewind viewing
options. It can be connected to external
sensors to trigger recording or build a time-
stamped graph of events. By clicking on a
specific event, the software will automatically
download the corresponding video fragment.
NetLink is a multi-cast product when used
on a private LAN or a uni-cast product when
used over the internet.
• NetLink AV – Upgrading the NetLink with
the video input option enables the NetLink to
connect direct to a camera,
in addition to being able to connect to the
output of a Cobham microwave receiver.
This function enables IP video and audio
transmission across public and private
networks.
