Milestone Husky X2 y X8: High-performance NVR platform with scalable management software

These new Milestone hardware platforms make it easier to configure and design video surveillance solutions for large installations, using Husky recorders as high-performance, scalable building blocks.

Lower cost of ownership, High performance and easier management of the security system are some of the advantages offered by the new Husky X2 and X8 platforms. Milestone, that reduce the number of servers needed in a large installation and encourage the operation of the graphics processor in video decoding to improve system performance.

Milestone has developed the Husky X series with two initial models: X2, which has two hot-swappable hard drives and integrates a PoE switch +, to manage up to 133 network cameras, de 720p a 25 frames per second, 2Mbit/s.

The Husky X8 model has eight hot-swappable hard drives and two network interfaces. 10 Gbit/s. Besides, internal storage can be expanded with external storage arrays, connected via high-speed Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI connections.

This high-performance platform supports up to 780 cameras (in the same resolution and speed as the X2 model), with a maximum recording speed of 1.828 Mbit/s, thanks to the incorporation of a graphic processing unit Intel Quad-core Iris Pro, facilitating hardware acceleration.
