Edge Server for Simple, Reliable Multi-Camera Recording
Milesight OpenVision Server is a pre-configured, plug-and-play surveillance system with Nx VMS Server embedded. Designed for fast and hassle-free deployment, it combines powerful hardware and intelligent video management software in one compact system.
The OpenVision Server brings together camera-generated VCA events and metadata into a unified intelligence layer across devices
and time, enabling fast, consistent search and investigation within the Nx Witness client.

Designed for practical deployment, OpenVision Server provides a comprehensive set of interfaces for on-site connectivity.
OpenVision Server serves as the storage foundation at the edge, supporting local recording while allowing storage to scale when needed.
With support for NAS and Cloud storage, projects can extend capacity and retention without changing their system architecture.
For large and critical deployments, uninterrupted recording and data protection are essential. The OpenVision 16-Channel Server supports N+M failover, allowing standby servers to automatically take over recording tasks when a failure occurs. Continuous operation is maintained across the system, minimizing downtime and reducing the risk of data loss for long‑running, high-density surveillance environments.
OpenVision Server Mini delivers edge recording and management in an ultra‑compact, low-power design. The design enables deployment in outdoor and non-traditional environments where conventional servers are impractical.
Operates consistently across temperatures ranging from –20°C to 60°C.
OpenVision Server Mini is built for fast, low-effort deployment. With the Milesight plugin and Nx VMS server preloaded, the system runs out of the box without manual configuration. A compact form factor allows installation in flexible locations such as cabinets, enclosures, or mobile units, extending edge deployment beyond fixed server spaces.
