Appendix C: Protocol Support Upgrades

Appendix C

Protocol Support Upgrades

The NPS 530/532 is by default delivered with Novell NetWare and LAN Server/LAN Manager support. TCP/IP and Apple EtherTalk support are available as software keys from your dealer. The software keys are sold separately for TCP/IP and Apple EtherTalk.

Ordering Procedures

A software key is simply a six-digit hexadecimal number that can be obtained by fax (or over the phone) from your distributor. The keys are individual for each NPS 530/532. You should have the following infor- mation available when ordering upgrades:

•The protocol (or protocols) you wish to upgrade to.

•The serial number of each NPS 530/532 you wish to upgrade.

Upgrading Procedures

The TCP/IP and Apple EtherTalk protocols are controlled by two param- eters; TCP_ENB (TCP/IP Menu), and ATLK_ENB (AppleTalk Menu). These parameters are by default set to NO, and cannot be changed unless the corresponding software keys have been provided.

The protocol upgrade is carried out by editing the config file as outlined in Appendix A. The software keys are entered as two parameter values; TCP_KEY (TCP/IP Menu), and ATLK_KEY (AppleTalk Menu).

There are two ways to enter the software keys, either using AXCFG from a PC running Windows or OS/2, or using FTP from a UNIX host run- ning TCP/IP.

NPS 532, NPS 530 specifications

Axis Communications, known for its innovative network video solutions, has recently introduced its new line of network power supplies, the NPS 530 and NPS 532. These robust devices are designed to meet the increasing power demands of network cameras, ensuring reliable and efficient operation in various surveillance applications.

The Axis NPS 530 and NPS 532 power supplies are engineered for optimal performance in network video installations. One of their main features is their high power output. The NPS 530 provides up to 60 W, while the NPS 532 delivers up to 120 W of power, making them suitable for powering multiple network devices simultaneously. This high power capability allows for the use of more advanced cameras equipped with enhanced features, such as pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) functionality, which can require significantly more power.

Both models are equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, which simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional wiring. PoE enables a single cable to provide both data connection and electrical power to devices, making the installation process more efficient and cost-effective. The NPS 530 and NPS 532 support the IEEE 802.3at and 802.3af PoE standards, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network devices.

Another key characteristic of these power supplies is their resilience and reliability. The rugged design of the NPS series ensures durability in various environmental conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. They are constructed with high-quality components that enhance their longevity, reducing the total cost of ownership over time.

The NPS 530 and NPS 532 also feature advanced thermal management systems. These systems help maintain optimal operating temperatures, preventing overheating during prolonged usage. Additionally, both models include LED indicators that provide real-time status updates, allowing users to monitor the operational state at a glance.

In conclusion, the Axis NPS 530 and NPS 532 power supplies stand out in the market for their high performance, advanced PoE technology, and robust design. They offer an ideal solution for modern surveillance needs, ensuring security professionals can deploy powerful network cameras with confidence. With these innovations, Axis Communications continues to set the standard in reliable video surveillance technology.
