About Milestone Interconnect
Milestone Interconnect™ allows you to integrate a number of smaller, physically fragmented, and
remote XProtect installations with an XProtect Corporate central site. You can install these smaller
sites, called remote sites, on mobile units, for example, boats, busses or trains. This means that such
sites do not need to be permanently connected to a network.
The following illustration shows how you could set up Milestone Interconnect on your system:
1. Milestone Interconnect™ central XProtect Corporate site
2. Milestone Interconnect drivers (handles the connection between the central sites' recording servers and the remote
site, must be selected in the list of drivers when adding remote systems via the Add Hardware wizard)
3. Milestone Interconnect connection
4. Milestone Interconnect remote site (the complete remote site with system installation, users, cameras and so on)
5. Milestone Interconnect remote system (the actual technical installation at the remote site)
Each remote site runs independently and can perform any normal surveillance tasks. Depending on
the network connections and appropriate user rights, Milestone Interconnect™ offers you direct live
viewing of remote site cameras and play back of remote site recordings from the central site. It also
offers you the possibility to transfer remote site recordings to the central site based on either events,
