Which types of devices can be integrated with Milestone XProtect?

Milestone XProtect is designed to provide a comprehensive video management solution that supports various types of devices to enhance security surveillance systems. The integration capabilities of XProtect specifically include the use of IP cameras and video encoders, which are critical for modern surveillance setups.

IP cameras are essential in this context as they transmit video data over IP networks, allowing for higher resolutions and better image quality than traditional analog cameras. Additionally, video encoders are used to convert analog video signals into digital data that can be effectively managed by software applications like XProtect.

This combination allows users to leverage existing hardware while transitioning into an IP-based environment. This means that organizations can benefit from improved functionality, such as remote access, advanced analytics, and seamless integration with other security measures, including alarms and access controls.

In contrast, the other options do not encompass the primary focus of XProtect's integration capabilities with video surveillance technology. Analogue cameras are generally outdated in terms of compatibility with modern systems, access control systems and sensors serve a different function in security systems, and wireless routers and switches are not directly intertwined with video management, although they play a supportive role in network infrastructure.
