Samsung unveils Full HD 1080p analogue video surveillance solution

Samsung Techwin America unveiled its newly developed full HD (1080p) analogue video surveillance product series. The new   line-up is comprised of an HD-SDI 1920 x 1080p box camera, an HD-SDI 1920 x 1080p dome camera and a four-channel HD-SDI DVR. The HD-SDI products provide over five times the image quality of conventional analogue technology and offer a more cost-effective and easier alternative to network-based systems, using standard coax cable.

HD-SDI (High Definition Serial Digital Interface) is a broadcast industry standard that is used to transmit high definition images digitally over an analogue infrastructure. The HD-SDI technology enables transmission of uncompressed and non-packetised digital video signals with zero loss of image data and zero latency when viewing.

"Our new HD Series video surveillance solutions are another example of Samsung's ability to provide high performance products with extreme value on any platform," said Frank De Fina, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, North America, Samsung Techwin America. "Samsung's new HD Series allows users with legacy analogue infrastructure to build on their investment while dramatically improving system performance."

The SCB-6000 Box Camera and the SCD-6080 Dome Camera each feature full 1080p resolution and are easily integrated into existing standard definition video surveillance systems. True day/night (ICR) functionality and SSNRIII (3D + 2D) technology add to the cameras application flexibility and performance features. The full HD 1920 x 1080p cameras offer RS-485 and 24V AC or 12V DC capability. The SCD-6080 Dome Camera features a 3-8.5mm (2.8x) lens while the SCB-6000 Box Camera can accept a manual or DC Auto Iris lens with C or CS mount.

The Samsung four-channel SRD-480D DVR delivers real time recording at 720p HD resolution for each channel with 1080p full HD resolution recording support. In addition to H.264 compression technology, the SRD-480D features a de-interlace function to help delineate the edges of moving objects. Audio can be recorded on all four channels and the SATA HDDs (up to 2TB per) allow DVD-RWs and USB devices to be used for archiving.

Samsung HD-SDI video surveillance solutions are designed to provide high quality resolution with images equivalent to high resolution IP network-based video surveillance systems. All Samsung HD-SDI products are easy to install and operate and require no IT/IP network knowledge, as each camera is individually connected to the DVR and not through the network.
