Integrating analog CCTV with IP video systems

How can an analog CCTV system be integrated effectively with a current IP-based video surveillance setup?

Integrating analog CCTV with IP surveillance systems typically requires video encoders to convert analog signals to digital format compatible with IP networks. Hybrid NVRs can also handle both analog and IP cameras through a single interface. Many video management software solutions support mixed systems, allowing both camera types to be monitored centrally while transitioning toward full IP setup.

Can hybrid surveillance systems be integrated with access control or alarm systems effectively?

[machinist]

Hybrid surveillance systems can be integrated with access control and alarm systems through compatible software or security platforms. These systems allow video feeds, door events, and alarm signals to be managed together in one interface. When properly set up, this integration helps link video footage with specific events, making it easier to track incidents and improve overall security management.
