1. PRODUCT FEATURES
1.1 Product Instructions
The Video Server Encoder is a versatile solution that allows you to make the most of your existing
analog surveillance infrastructure. The Video Server is a standalone system with a built-in video
encoder that converts an analog camera into a full-featured IP-based system. The Video Server
can be remotely accessed and controlled using a Web browser over an Intranet or the Internet.
The Video Server’s Video Encoder makes it possible to integrate a pre-existing analog
surveillance infrastructure into a fully-functional IP surveillance system. The Video Server is an
ideal choice for banks, airports, factories, government buildings, prisons, and traffic surveillance
applications - any location where surveillance equipment is already installed and functioning.
This video server adapts Texas Instrument's (TI's) newest digital media processor -- the
TMS320DM 365 for efficient image operation, while also offering simultaneous triple-codec
( H.264 / MPEG-4 / MJPEG ) video compressions with the highest resolution of Full D1, at 30 / 25
frames per second in the NTSC / PAL systems, respectively. In addition, users based on different
bandwidths can choose multi-profile video streaming at different resolutions.
The video server provides stable, reliable and convenient network surveillance. It safely
downloads automatic video codec and other components, and lets you set up the control
settings very easily. It provides UPnP features as well. Its USB interface is for basic network
setting and updating. The SD card slot supports alarm and event recording and updating.
Furthermore, this encoder board comes with the Power over Ethernet (PoE) function, and its
RS-485 interface can be connected with all kinds of Pelco-D PTZ cameras.
Alarm handling features provide alerts in the event of loss of video or loss of network connection.
Motion alarms with configurable detection areas allow for effective surveillance and help to
mitigate the need for constant human supervision. A buffer system allows the server to capture
images to the built-in SD card slot before and after an event occurs.
We have launched this triple-codec video server for the more advanced digital surveillance
solutions demanded by our clients. We believe this unit is the right answer to your Network
surveillance problems. You will find it practical, precise and indispensable.
