Edge · Gateway

Intelligence next to your recorders

A compact on-site gateway connects your existing CCTV, runs detections locally, and serves live view inside the firewall. Choose a certified appliance or deploy as a VM on infrastructure you already operate.

What is the Slinai edge gateway?

The Slinai edge gateway is on-site software (appliance or VM) that ingests RTSP/ONVIF streams from your cameras and NVRs, runs video AI locally, manages short-term clip storage, and optionally syncs events to Slinai cloud. It is the foundation for on-prem and hybrid deployments.

Capabilities

What Edge gateway delivers

NVR-adjacent install

Mount in the same rack or network segment as recorders — low-latency streams without WAN dependency.

Unified camera onboarding

Discover ONVIF devices, import NVR channel maps, and name cameras into the same hierarchy Cloud VMS uses.

Local compute profile

CPU or GPU profiles sized for camera count — from boutique stores to multi-hundred-camera campuses.

Hardened access

Admin UI on LAN or VPN only; SSO-ready roles; full audit of config changes.

Health & capacity

Disk, GPU, stream health, and dropped-frame alerts so IT knows before ops notices blind spots.

Remote assist (optional)

With policy approval, Slinai support can diagnose gateway health without opening continuous video access.

Hardware flexibility

Appliance when you want turnkey — VM when IT owns the stack

Some sites prefer a sealed appliance with pre-sized storage. Others mandate software on VMware or bare-metal that IT patches. Slinai supports both with the same management plane and detection packs.

Expansion is modular: add GPU capacity or storage as camera counts grow, without re-wiring the CCTV plant.

Connect what you already paid for

Edge gateway speaks the same RTSP/ONVIF dialects as Cloud VMS — Hikvision, CP Plus, Dahua, Axis, Bosch, Hanwha, and generic recorders common across Indian multi-site rollouts.

No need to replace working cameras to unlock AI. Pair with Existing CCTV guidance under Cloud VMS for multi-brand fleets.

FAQ

Common questions

Can one gateway cover multiple buildings?

Yes, if LAN/WAN latency and bandwidth allow. Large campuses often use one gateway per building or per NVR cluster.

Does the gateway replace the NVR?

No. It complements recorders — NVR keeps its retention role; Slinai adds AI, alerts, and optional hybrid sync.

Who patches the appliance?

Slinai signed updates for appliances; VM customers apply OS patches per IT policy while Slinai updates the application layer.

Is GPU required?

Depends on camera count and detection pack. Small sites can run CPU-only; dense AI packs benefit from GPU.
