Dahua continues to develop IVSS within its intelligent-computing range, with current IVSS51 and IVSS71 series platforms covering different system sizes and performance requirements. Rather than publishing fixed model tables that quickly date, Videcom specifies the current platform against the required camera count, storage, resilience and analytics workload.

Depending on the selected platform and cameras, intelligent functions can include perimeter protection, human and vehicle classification, video metadata, intelligent search and other AI-assisted investigation tools. Processing can take place at the camera, within IVSS, or as a combination of both.

IVSS and DSS Professional

IVSS and DSS perform different roles within a Dahua system. IVSS provides the recording, storage and intelligent processing infrastructure, while DSS Professional is the central management software used by operators to manage live video, recorded video, alarms, users and wider security-system functions.

A larger Videcom-designed Dahua system may therefore use cameras feeding one or more IVSS servers, with DSS Professional providing the central operator and management layer. IVSS can also be deployed without DSS where the project does not require a wider central-management platform.

Videcom designs the complete environment around the operational requirement, including network architecture, storage, redundancy, cybersecurity, user access, management software and long-term support.

Where IVSS Fits

• Medium and large multi-camera CCTV systems
• Projects requiring resilient local recording and storage
• Advanced perimeter and event-driven surveillance
• Metadata-assisted investigation and forensic search
• Systems where camera-side and server-side analytics need to work together
• Control-room environments requiring central management and structured operator workflows

Videcom can advise on the current IVSS range and design the system around camera count, recording period, bandwidth, storage, analytics and resilience requirements.
