ONVIF
ONVIF is established as a non-profit organization. It is an open industry forum for the development of a standard for the interface of IP-based physical security products.
The cornerstones of ONVIF include:
- Standardization of communication between IP-based physical security products
- Interoperability between IP-based physical security products regardless of manufacturers
- Open to all companies and organizations

The ONVIF specifications define a common protocol for the exchange of information between network video devices including automatic device discovery, video streaming, event handling and intelligence metadata.
ONVIF Profiles
ONVIF Profiles are collections specifications that guarantee the interoperability of specific features between conformant devices.| Profile S | Addresses common functionalities of IP video systems, such as video and audio streaming, PTZ controls and relay activation |
| Profile C | Addresses common functionalities of IP access control systems, such as door state and control, credential management and event handling |
| Profile G | Addresses video storage, recording, searching and retrieval |
| Profile Q | Addresses device discovery and configuration as well as the management of TLS certificates and keys |
In addition to our innovations and unique technologies, TeleEye GN, GX, sureREC Series DVRs, MP400, MQ200 Series IP cameras and sureSIGHT video management platform are all conforming to ONVIF Profile S standard.
BS8418
BS 8418: 2003 is a guideline for design, develop, install, operate and remote monitor detector activated CCTV systems. The UK standard is to minimise false alarms to central monitoring station and achieve best practice of CCTV systems design and installation.
Why BS 8418 Compliance?
Although BS 8418 is an UK standard, it is recognized as one of the most professional and reliable security related standard in the CCTV industry.Advantages of BS 8418 compliance:
- A BS 8418 compliance system will enable the efficient monitoring of your premises.
- A BS 8418 compliance system will give you a faster and upper level response from the Police.
- A BS 8418 compliance system can achieve best practice of CCTV system design and installation.
- A BS 8418 compliance system can reduce the possible cases of false police call out.
- Systems with BS 8418 compliance can reduce the insurance liability.
A fully compliant system contains the equipment, the installation service and the remote video response centre for receiving remote signals for designing, installing and monitoring the system.
