TL;DR: Yes! If your camera has an RTSP stream, SEiNG can bring it into your surveillance setup — no matter the brand, age, or how mismatched your current camera estate is.
How does RTSP streaming work with SEiNG?
Once your camera is connected, it streams video directly to SEiNG, where it’s securely stored in the UK and made available through a single platform. From there you get real-time monitoring, anywhere access, and analytics — all in one place, regardless of how many different camera brands are feeding into it.
SEiNG is built to handle high-quality video across a range of formats and resolutions, so footage stays sharp and usable when it matters most. And because SEiNG supports multiple simultaneous RTSP streams, it scales comfortably from a single-site setup to large multi-site commercial deployments.
What cameras are compatible with RTSP on SEiNG?
Any camera that supports the RTSP protocol can connect — which means you don’t have to manage multiple apps to access footage. This is one of the biggest advantages of RTSP: it’s an open, widely-adopted standard rather than a proprietary one, so you’re not restricted to a single manufacturer’s ecosystem.

Do I need any special equipment to connect an RTSP camera to SEiNG?
Not necessarily. You can opt for a hardware-free SEiNG deployment, where your cameras connect directly to SEiNG. Alternatively, you could use the cloud gateway – a lightweight plug-and-play device that offers bandwidth management, buffering, and cyber-hardening. The right approach will depend on which cameras you want to use, how many cameras you have, and what the internet connection is like at your sites.
