๐Ÿ’ก At a Glance

Coram supports high-resolution cameras, including 4K and 12MP devices, though higher resolutions reduce the number of cameras each Coram Point can manage. Coram also supports multi-head cameras, where each head requires an individual license and stream.

Overview

Coram supports higher-resolution cameras to provide detailed, high-quality video streams. However, as camera resolution increases, the number of cameras each Coram Point model can effectively manage decreases. Multi-head cameras are also supported, with each head consuming one license and counting as a separate stream.

Support for 4K Cameras

Coram Point can manage 4K cameras at 8 megapixels, offering enhanced detail for crucial surveillance areas. The following capacity limits apply:

  • CP-S-1 can typically support 8โ€“10 cameras at 4K resolution running at 15 FPS.

  • Other models, such as CP-E-1 or CP-X-1, can also accommodate 4K, but the maximum number of cameras will be lower than their listed full capacity when using standard, lower-resolution cameras.

Tip: To learn more about each Coram Point, refer to Coram Point Models.

Support for 12MP Cameras

12MP cameras are compatible with Coram Point, and deliver extremely high-resolution footage for detailed analytics, but he added resource demands of 12MP feeds further limit how many cameras each Coram Point can handle.

Tip: Consider the impact of both the resolution and frame rate when planning a 12MP deployment to maintain system performance. For more information, contact your Coram representative.

Support for Multi-Head Cameras

Coram Point treats each head of a multi-head - or multi-sensor - camera as a separate video stream, each of which consumes one license. For example, a four-head camera counts as four individual cameras for licensing and capacity purposes.

This approach ensures each camera headโ€™s feed can be independently managed, providing flexibility for varied placements and angles on a single physical device.
