S-68 E is now one of the industry's most efficient, high-density solutions, making it ideal for large, professional installations where space and cost per channel are a concern. Moreover, since each module consumes a mere 0.9W per channel, the S-68 is also an environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution.

Through an intuitive access-controlled web interface, it is possible to configure an array of features included in the S-68 E, such as the use of video motion detection or serial data streams to control a PTZ camera or implement access control. Additionally, these compact video servers are based on an open streaming architecture standard that simplifies their use in third-party systems.

    Next year sees the start of the first real-life electrified road system for transporting freight. Worldwide freight transportation is predicted to double by 2050 but despite expansion of global rail infrastructure only one third of this additional freight transport can be handled by trains. This means that the largest proportion of freight transport will continue to be by road and as a result, experts expect global CO2 emissions from road freight traffic to more than double by 2050.
