Perimeter SecurityBuilding ManagementLocate intruders that may take advantage of scarcely monitored areas, discourage loitering in sensitive spots such as driveways or parking lot entrances, and strengthen access control to your premises without maintaining dedicated staff on site.Reduce health and safety risks by preventing overcrowding, optimize visitor flows with real-time and historical occupancy data, and ensure that only authorized personnel can access your premises. Deep Learning NVR Series Real-time alertsGet alerted the moment something needs attention. People & Vehicle Detection Trigger immediate or threshold-based alerts using idle times within defined zones for people or vehicles. Intrusion Detection Set up bidirectional or one-way virtual borders to issue alerts when people or vehicles cross into an area. Congestion Alerts Avoid overcrowding in sensitive spots by detecting when the number of people transiting a predefined zone crosses a set threshold. Face Covering Detection Identify whether your visitors comply with local rules or policies and alert personnel on site to take appropriate action. Search and insightsIdentify who or what was on site and pull up the right footage in seconds.Attribute SearchNew Search recordings by specific attributes, such as object type, color, or clothing, to pinpoint relevant footage faster. License Plate Recognition Identify license plates and set up accompanying triggers based on configurable allow or blocklists. Learn more Face Recognition Manage access to your premises easily with detection support of up to 10,000 personnel profiles with >97% accuracy. People & Vehicle Counting Gauge occupancy levels with aggregated counting of people and vehicles entering and leaving your premises, with automatic alerts when capacity is reached.
Flexible monitoring capabilities Leverage highly configurable options and automation features to act quickly when potentially dangerous situations arise. Map-supported alerts Display real-time previews of detected events on interactive multi-floor and multi-site maps supported by Google Maps and OpenStreetMap.Learn more Automation rules Reduce workloads by triggering responses to specific situations, such as activating recording when a microswitch detects a door is opened.Learn more Notifications Specify which events should trigger a notification, and whether to receive alerts by SMS, email, or push notification on mobile devices.
Comprehensive access options Enjoy a uniform monitoring experience wherever you are and adapt your surveillance system to your needs — not the other way around.
Space-saving installation Minimize the footprint of your monitoring setup. The DVA1622’s local management capabilities make it an ideal solution for compact home surveillance systems and security kiosks when available space is limited. High definition video output Connect an external display directly to the built-in HDMI port to start monitoring your premises in minutes. Local management Control your Surveillance Station installation without setting up a dedicated PC by attaching a mouse and keyboard directly to the DVA1622.

 Frequently Asked Questions Are specialized cameras required for video analytics? What is the recommended resolution for each camera? All cameras listed under the IP Camera Support List are supported. We recommend installing cameras that support FHD 1920x1080 resolution and 20 FPS (frames per second) or higher frame rate. Refer to the Admin Guide for more information. How does the system handle lighting changes, shadows, and weather conditions such as rain? Leveraging advanced algorithms powered by the integrated GPU, Surveillance Station's People and Vehicle detection functionality can detect and differentiate between those objects of interest with high accuracy, even in more challenging lighting environments. What external integration/API capabilities are supported? Surveillance Station API can be used to customize deployments for specific needs. For example, you can perform external analysis, bookmark frames of interest, or pass Facial Recognition or People Counting results to an external system. For more information, refer to the API Document. Does the DVA support NAS functionality found on other devices running DSM? Synology DVA series supports most features found on other Synology NAS and has access to Synology Package Center. For a comprehensive list of supported add-ons, refer to the supported package list. How many licenses do DVA1622 units come with? DVA1622 units come with 8 device licenses. As your installation grows, you can purchase additional licenses to add extra cameras and other surveillance devices. Learn moreHardware Overview
