Evolution of Digital Recording
All new AR series multi-channel recording system has made a change to the history of digital recording. Most of telephony recording systems you see out there at the market are built on industry-based computer with several voice-recording cards. They are often taking huge spaces and pricy which result a big gap for non-business consumers. However, telephony-recording system should be popularized to all levels of consumers at reasonable price and is an ultimate tool for any organization.

Modern Technology in Digital Age
Everything is digitalized and is transferable to any computer. Store the data either in hard drive or DVD for better storage-life. Send a copy of your recorded data via email is also a great way to confirm the detail of your phone conversation.

All-in-One Design
The all-new AR series multi-channel recording system is an all-around telephony recording system. The system has built-in hard drive, which allows all-day recording without turning on the PC. Standard rack case provides you the convenience for both mounting in rack cell or just place in desk; whichever is perfect for your needs

Recording All-Around
Records each line’s incoming and outgoing phone number, start date and time, and talking duration and all-time recorded data. Build-in Caller-ID for incoming callers (even if your PBX does not have Caller-ID services included), AR series recording system still provide you the Caller-ID function.

The Revcord: RCAT Series of Analog Recorder - 16 to 96 Channels

1.0 Introduction.

The Revcord RCAT series is a "stand alone" voice logging system intended for operation 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. The Model RCAT is browser based with Windows XP Operating System and features an optional Public Safety software. The Administrator has the ability to assign unlimited user rights and no "seat licenses" or other user fees are associated with RCAT voice logging systems offering analog connectivity. Access is at the workstation or remotely from the user’s PC via the local area network (LAN) or Internet.

2.0 Browser Based System.

The model Revcord RCAT Voice Logging System can be accessed remotely by as many users as the Administrator assigns rights. Access is gained from the user’s PC with their browser (Internet Explorer) and is via the local area network (LAN) or Internet if the System is on an external IP address. Depending upon rights assigned to individual users they can have remote access to the System’s full or limited System functionality.

3.0 Hardware configuration.

All components of the Revcord Model RCAT are self-contained within a tower chassis measuring 10" x 19" x 7.5" (HxLxW). Accessories include amphenol connector cable(s), mouse, keyboard and a "starter pack" of five Panasonic DVD-RAM disks. Not included but required a monitor, speakers and if the customer elects to backup to a USB hard drive or network attached storage (NAS) instead of the DVD-RAM drive

Channel Configurations.

The Revcord model RCAT is available with analog capture cards or digital capture cards - or with a variety of combinations using both analog and digital cards. Analog capture cards are 16 channels each and standard "off the shelf" configurations are 16, 32, 48 and 64 channels. Digital capture cards are 8, 16, and 24 channels and combinations of these are available "off the shelf" up to 96 channels.

Channel Expandability.

Channel limitations of the Model RCAT are related to the number of slots available on the motherboard. Expansion up to 64 analog or 96 digital channels is normally a simple field level upgrade. If you anticipate expansion requirements exceeding 64 analog channels or 96 digital channels we recommend you consider our Model RCAMCS which is a rack mount chassis with redundant features including dual hot swappable hard drives and dual hot swappable power supplies. Questions regarding channel expansion involving analog mixed with digital – or analog and/or digital mixed with VoIP should be asked your dealer.

Hard Drives & Internal Storage.

The Revcord model RCAT has a standard 320 gigabyte hard drive. With analog capture cards (using G.723.1 compression) this hard drive provides in excess of 100,000 channel hours of storage capability. With digital capture cards (using MSGSM compression) this drive should provide in excess of 50,000 channel hours of internal storage. With the RCAT System internal archiving is determined by number of days and the Systems are factory preset to record for 365 days and then to maintain 365 days on a "first in-first out" rotation. If your anticipated channel hour storage requirement exceeds 100,000 (or 50,000 hours with digital cards) the options of a larger hard drive or the use of a different compression are available. If your anticipated annual usage is less than 100,000 hours (or 50,000 hour with digital card) your dealer can reset the number of days internal archiving from 1 to 999 days. Regardless of the days you elect to maintain on the internal hard drives we strongly recommend automatic backup for purposes of additional security of data and information.

Automatic Backup Options.

The Revcord model RCAT includes a Panasonic DVD-RAM drive and we include a "starter package" of five (5) Panasonic DVD-RAM disks when the System is shipped. We specifically recommend this particular disk since they are proven to be compatible with the Panasonic DVD-RAM drive. These disks are 4.7 gigabytes and provide over 1,400 (analog) or 700 (digital) channel hours of capacity. You also have the options of backing up to a USB hard drive and/or Network Attached Storage (NAS). We recommend you ask your dealer for suggested models of USB drives and/or NAS which have been proven compatible. Your dealer will establish your selection of automatic backup during installation. The System is then capable of automatically downloading buffered information to the selected media and should this backup be interrupted (either intentionally or unintentionally) the data will simply "catch up" with the transfer once the situation is corrected
