i-PRO IPS-SRV-UDE-160TB UDE Hybrid Server/Storage for T2-T3 Sites
The IPS-SRV-UDE-160TB is a tier 2 / tier 3 UDE (Unified Data Environment) hybrid appliance with 160 TB of recording storage. It is sized for mid-sized agencies — moderate body-worn fleets, in-car deployments, and supporting fixed surveillance at the station — running on a single consolidated platform. UDE keeps video, evidence metadata, and ancillary services under one access-controlled platform with audit logging.

- 160 TB of usable hybrid storage
- Sized for mid-sized law-enforcement and public-safety agencies
- Combined body-worn, in-car, and fixed-surveillance ingest on a single chassis
- Rack-mount form factor with redundant cooling
- Hardware-accelerated H.265 decoding for live monitoring
- Cybersecurity-hardened image suitable for agency network deployment
Tier 2 and 3 agencies cover a wide range of department sizes, but they share a need for the same evidence-management workflow as a tier 1 agency: chain-of-custody, audit logging, retention policy enforcement, and prosecutor handoff. The UDE platform delivers those workflows without the operational burden of building and maintaining custom integrations between separate VMS, evidence, and storage products. The 160 TB tier suits an agency with several dozen body-worn cameras, a moderate in-car fleet, and fixed station surveillance.
Right-size against the agency's actual retention policy and fleet size. Plan redundant power and a network uplink sized for peak dock-window throughput. Configure an off-site backup target for chain-of-custody integrity. Train evidence-room and IT staff on the UDE audit features so day-to-day operation generates the audit trails that simplify court discovery. Coordinate with the prosecutor's office on the agency's evidence export workflow.
