What is ONVIF?

Cambium Networks is a member of ONVIF which is an industry organization that promotes interoperability amongst suppliers of physical security products.

cnVision leverages these standards by integrating an ONVIF client on each hub and client.  With the ONVIF client, cnVision hubs and clients auto-detect and display information about ONVIF Conformant cameras as they are connected. WIth cnVision's stream detection capability, users can view camera feeds within the client GUI allowing rapid troubleshooting and fault isolation and confirming successful installations.
