The Vemotion Streaming Server (VSS) is the hub of the Vemotion solution and connects the Encoders and Clients to the Network Operations Centre (NOC).

The VSS is a Windows based application that can be supplied fully installed and configured on a rack mounted or tower machine, or, it can be supplied as software so it can be installed on an existing computer. Vemotion can also offer VSS hosting in our dedicated data centre in London Docklands for customers who don’t have any central infrastructure in place themselves.

The VSS must have access to the internet to allow incoming Wireless Video transmission connections from remote encoders to transmit the video and also remote clients wishing to view the video feeds. Typically, this internet connection can be provided through corporate networks, ADSL or even 3G via a suitable router. The connection type depends upon the number of live Wireless Video transmission streams and clients allowed to connect to the VSS.

The streaming server can be licensed to allow a specific number of remote Software or Hardware Encoders to connect to it. Once the encoders are connected, then the live video being transmitted to the VSS can be viewed by an unlimited, licensed number of remote clients. The VSS is also responsible for authenticating users connecting.

This means that a single live Wireless Video transmission stream being transmitted from a remote camera can be instantly viewed by many users at the same time.
