We all know the importance of implementing a Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plan, but what happens when you don’t have one? In our latest StoneFly case study, we provide a sound BC and DR plan while exceeding RTO (Recovery Time Objective) and RPO (Recovery Point Objective) for a Utah-based professional industrial packaging company.
By implementing StoneFly’s high-performance Voyager-TSC IP SAN with SCVM (for asynchronous replication), the company was able virtualize their IT environment by 95%, reduced server space by 80%, and now has the option to scale up their storage for the future.
To learn more about how our Voyager-TSC and SCVM achieved this on this case study.

The wait is finally over! We finally unveiled our newest IP surveillance storage products. The Falcon- DL (Diskless Server) and Falcon-BVMS (Bunch of Video Management Software) are the latest additions to our Falcon product family series.
Falcon-DL is a series of diskless IP video recording and management servers. Featuring an energy-saving diskless design, Falcon-DL servers boot directly from DNF Security’s Seahawk line of Internet Protocol (IP) storage area network (SAN) devices to provide superior data protection, optimum mean time to repair (MTTR) and significant cost savings.
The Falcon-BVMS incorporates multiple VMS and integrated RAID protected shared video storage within a single physical hardware. The configuration allows users to have fewer points of management, save on energy expenses, and lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
For information about the Falcon-DL and Falcon-BVMS, please check out our press releases or contact our sales team.

Guess #1: Privately owned estate?
Guess#2: Prince of Egypt?
Guess #3: Edgar Allan’s last name?
Guess #4: Wasn’t she the one who sang “Trigger Happy Jack?“
Actually, in the surveillance industry, PoE stands for Power over Ethernet. The concept is quite simple: You plug your Ethernet cable to your camera’s Ethernet port and plug the other end of the cable into a PoE switch, and you get power. Simple enough right? Not quite. There are other factors you must consider when deploying PoE powered cameras, such as PoE switch types and classifications.
Here is a list of the four power classes:
Class 1 – 4.5 watts at PoE port; 3.84 watts at device
Class 2 – 7.5 watts at PoE port; 6.49 watts at device
Class 3 – 15.4 watts at PoE port; 12.95 watts at device
Class 0 – 15.4 watts at PoE port; .44 to 12.95 watts at device
Not all PoE powered cameras will work with your switch, so you must consider which class your switch and cameras fall under. Want more information on the classifications, check out this article from IPSecurityWatch.
