Network - QoS (Quality of service)

Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, and no packet losses. The main benefits of a QoS-aware network can be summarized as:

•The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lesser priority.

•Greater reliability in the network, thanks to the control of the amount of band- width an application may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.

The QoS in Axis network video products marks the data packets for various types of network traffic originating from the product. This makes it possible for network routers and switches to reserve a fixed amount of bandwidth for these types of traffic. The following types of traffic are marked:

•live video

•live audio

•event/alarm traffic

•management network traffic.

QoS Settings

For each type of network traffic supported by your Axis network video product, enter a DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint) value. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP header. When the marked traffic reaches a network router or switch, the DSCP value in the IP header tells the router or switch which type of treatment to apply to this type of traffic, for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it.

Note that DSCP values can be entered in decimal or hex form, but saved values are always shown in decimal.

232d+ specifications

Axis Communications, a leading provider of IP security solutions, offers a range of high-performance cameras designed for various surveillance applications. Among their products, the Axis 232D+ and Axis 231D+ stand out for their robust features and advanced technologies, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.

The Axis 232D+ is a high-speed dome camera that delivers exceptional video quality, thanks to its 1/4-inch progressive scan CCD sensor. It offers a resolution of 704x480 pixels and can capture incredibly detailed images at up to 30 frames per second. With its pan/tilt functionality, the 232D+ can cover a wide field of view, allowing for extensive monitoring areas while maintaining high precision and responsiveness.

In addition to its impressive image quality, the Axis 232D+ features advanced digital zoom capabilities, enabling users to zoom into specific areas without significant loss of detail. The camera is equipped with a powerful infrared capability, allowing it to capture images in low-light conditions effectively. This makes it an ideal choice for 24/7 surveillance in all lighting scenarios.

On the other hand, the Axis 231D+ offers similar high-quality video performance but introduces some distinctive features. It also utilizes a 1/4-inch progressive scan CCD sensor and supports a wide dynamic range (WDR) for improved image quality in challenging lighting conditions. The 231D+ is designed for easy installation and integration into existing systems, making it a versatile option for various surveillance needs.

Both models leverage Axis' digital PTZ technology, providing users with the flexibility to pan, tilt, and zoom remotely via an intuitive web interface. This user-friendly aspect simplifies monitoring and allows quicker responses to incidents when they arise.

Furthermore, both the Axis 232D+ and 231D+ support Power over Ethernet (PoE), eliminating the need for separate power cables and simplifying installation, especially in hard-to-reach locations.

In conclusion, the Axis 232D+ and 231D+ represent Axis Communications’ commitment to delivering high-quality, versatile surveillance solutions that meet the demands of modern security challenges. Their advanced imaging technologies, robust features, and user-friendly design make them noteworthy additions to any security setup. Whether it's for large outdoor areas or indoor environments requiring vigilant monitoring, these cameras provide the performance and reliability critical for comprehensive security.
