Quantum unveils new server with extra security

Surveillance and security solution firm Quantum Corporation on Monday announced a new server to enable customers run video management systems (VMS) or analytic applications with extra security. The server named Xcellis Application Director offers multiple methods of connecting to storage for efficient data management.

With the new server, users can access data without adding to network traffic for a more efficient video surveillance infrastructure. "Xcellis Application Director extends the benefits of Quantum solutions to a broader range of customers and eliminates the gap between appliance-based surveillance storage solutions and large scalable models that haven't been a good fit for small camera count environments," explained Wayne Arvidson, Vice President, Surveillance and Security Solutions, Quantum, in a statement.

"With Xcellis Application Director, system integrators can easily configure storage solutions to address a uniquely expansive range of surveillance customers," added Jim Ricker, Vice President, Supplier Relations, Anixter.
