Lots of features. Compact design.
Ideal for equipment rack mounted installations, ION provides the operator with everything they need to control and review video recordings in one compact unit. The 5 inches wide by 7 inches long (127 mm by 177.8 mm) design means that ION will fit well within the footprint of existing hardware — likely even freeing-up rack space that was previously taken by older recording equipment.
Installing in a custom location? No problem — we’ll help you customize your installation setup to meet your needs.
Tested to hold up against rigorous DO-160 standards, ION can take the punishment, vibration, and environmental challenges of even the toughest installations.
Built with a modular design in mind, multiple ION units can be “stacked” for an almost limitless number of recording options.
Go Ahead, Press Record
You shouldn’t have worry about saving precious recording space on expensive P2 storage media or video tapes. ION uses consumer-grade, off the shelf, class 4 (or higher) SD and USB memory — It’s readily available and inexpensive to acquire. Recording roughly 4GB of high definition video per hour, ION can record one or several launches to low-cost, highly portable media meaning.
ION’s recordable media drives are hot-swappable and expandable up to and beyond 1TB. So, go on, record whatever you want, whenever you want.
