Introduction
In industrial environments such as mining, oil & gas, energy, and critical infrastructure, reliable and secure video streaming is not just a convenience—it’s a necessity. Traditional IP cameras using standard RTSP/UDP often struggle with latency, packet loss, and security vulnerabilities, especially in remote or harsh locations.
Sunell IP cameras address these challenges by supporting Secure Reliable Transport (SRT), Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2/1.3), and SNMP v3, providing industrial-grade video solutions that meet both performance and cybersecurity requirements.
Core Protocol Support
Secure Reliable Transport (SRT)
SRT is a transport protocol designed for low-latency, reliable video transmission over unpredictable networks, including the public Internet or 5G links.
Key advantages for industrial customers:
• Minimizes video latency for real-time monitoring or teleoperation.
• Maintains video integrity even in high packet-loss environments.
• Ideal for remote mining sites, offshore platforms, and long-distance pipelines.
Sunell cameras with SRT support allow operators to stream HD/4K video securely and reliably, even under challenging network conditions.
Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2/1.3)
TLS 1.2/1.3 ensures that video streams are encrypted end-to-end, protecting against eavesdropping and man-in-the-middle attacks. Sunell cameras implement TLS 1.2/1.3 with:
• Strong cipher suites for data confidentiality.
• Certificate-based authentication for devices and servers.
• Secure key management to prevent unauthorized access.
With TLS, industrial operators can confidently deploy Sunell cameras in sensitive environments such as power substations, refineries, and critical manufacturing plants.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP v3)
SNMP v3 enables centralized monitoring and management of camera health and status, with:
• Authentication and encryption for management traffic.
• Real-time alerts on device errors or failures.
• Integration with existing industrial network management systems (NMS).
This allows maintenance teams to proactively monitor cameras in large-scale industrial deployments, reducing downtime and operational risk.
Additional Protocol Support
Sunell cameras also integrate with other industrial and IoT protocols, including:
• MQTT / AMQP for IoT integration and event-driven monitoring.
• Modbus/TCP and Profinet for factory automation interfaces.
• ONVIF Profile T / M for standardized interoperability with third-party VMS platforms.
This wide protocol compatibility ensures Sunell cameras fit seamlessly into existing industrial OT networks.
Security & Compliance
Sunell is committed to industrial cybersecurity best practices. Our cameras adhere to:
• FIPS 140-3 Level 3 compliance for highly secure installations.
Other security measures include:
• Firmware signature verification.
• Role-based access control.
• Audit logs for network activity.
These features give operators confidence that Sunell cameras meet strict industrial cybersecurity requirements.
Industrial Use Cases
Sunell IP cameras with SRT, TLS, and SNMP v3 have been deployed in:
• Mining operations for remote machinery monitoring and teleoperation.
• Oil & gas pipelines for leak detection and surveillance.
• Ports and container terminals for security and asset tracking.
• Energy grids including substation monitoring and smart grid analytics.
Real-world deployments demonstrate low-latency, reliable, and secure video in environments where standard cameras often fail.
Integration & Resources
Sunell provides comprehensive resources for engineers and system integrators:
• Configuration guides for SRT parameters, TLS certificates, and SNMP settings.
• Datasheets, SDKs, and APIs for seamless integration with VMS and SCADA systems.
• Technical support for protocol-specific deployments.
