You can view multiple cameras at the same time from Video the page.

Watching multiple cameras can help provide a clearer picture of what's happening at a given time at your location. For example, if you are watching one camera to monitor a theft that occurred at your business, you may want to have multiple cameras displayed at once to ensure you can track the thief as they move through the location.

See the following image for an example of viewing multiple cameras at once:
