Technology Overview

WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a browser-native technology designed for real-time audio, video, and data delivery with ultra-low latency. Sunell integrates WebRTC into its IP camera platform to deliver instant live video streaming, secure remote access, and smooth cross-platform monitoring.

Core Technology & Principles

Sunell’s WebRTC architecture is optimized for surveillance streaming, built on modern low-latency protocols and secure media transport.

  • STUN/TURN Servers for NAT traversal

  • P2P Transmission to minimize delay

  • Real-Time Codecs (H.264, VP8, Opus)

  • DTLS + SRTP End-to-End Encryption

  • Adaptive Bitrate Control (ABR) for stable WebRTC streaming

Key Capabilities

  • Ultra-low latency video (<500 ms)

  • Browser-native playback with no plugins

  • Two-way audio communication

  • Stable performance under weak networks

  • Cross-platform support (PC, mobile, cloud, VMS)

Technical Advantages

  • Faster responsiveness vs. RTSP or HTTP-FLV

  • Fully encrypted end-to-end communication

  • Efficient bandwidth usage with adaptive codecs

  • Instant device access with no software installation

  • Scalable cloud-ready architecture

Application Scenarios

  • Smart city real-time monitoring

  • Industrial remote inspection

  • Smart retail live support

  • IoT home security systems

  • Web/Mobile VMS platforms
