In surveillance systems IPVS (IP Video Security) is a video surveillance solution that uses IP elements instead of analog elements used in Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV).
Since late 90's, the CCTV and video-surveillance systems started to look to the IP solutions available in the market. CCTV Digital Video recorders (DVRs) replaced old Video Cassette Recorders (VCRs), however end users demanded more connectivity and remote administration capabilities from DVRs. The video cameras used BNC Connectors to send the video to the DVRs using analog video media (coax cable, fiber optic, UTP cable with video baluns, or wireless links).
Some manufacturers like Sony and Axis Communications started to make IP cameras, which could be connected directly to Ethernet Networks. The monitoring and recording can be done through specialized server software from designers like Aimetis, ipConfigure, Milestone Systems and videoNEXT.
