Geovision GV-800 8-Channel Capture Card
Overview
The Geovision GV-800 is an 8-channel digital capture card designed to expand IP camera input capacity in centralized surveillance architectures. This D-type card integrates into Geovision surveillance platforms to handle simultaneous multi-camera acquisition and processing — the core task when you're scaling from a single-site monitor setup to a distributed multi-camera network where all feeds must stream through one acquisition backbone.
Compatibility
The GV-800 works with Geovision V8.5 surveillance software and compatible Geovision systems (confirmed for GV-600, GV-650, GV-800, GV-804A series, GV-1120, GV-1240, GV-1480, and GV-3008 platforms). Supports IP camera inputs and integrates with ONVIF-compliant camera infrastructure — meaning you can mix compatible IP camera sources across different vendors without requiring proprietary integration layers. Resolution modes span VGA (640×480) through 5MP, H.264 compression, and Day/Night operation, so you're not limited to a single image pipeline even when cameras vary in native output.
Installation Notes
Physical installation is rack-mounted; verify your surveillance system's available card slots and power budget before deployment. The card requires Geovision software V3.30 or later (check your system documentation for the exact version currently running) and must be seated in a compatible system chassis. Cable runs to IP camera sources should follow standard network infrastructure practices — no proprietary cabling beyond standard Ethernet connections to the card's input interfaces.
