1. Overview
The Full HD Speed Dome IP Camera transmits digital video and audio data
using wire connection. Live video can be monitored and recorded from
window-based computer via network.
The video encoder supports real-time Main Profile H.264 Full HD resolution.
Simultaneous dual streams, H.264/H.264 and H.264/MJPEG, are available for
various network applications via speeding or limited bandwidth. Better image
quality and high resolution are delivered by IP support. It eliminates the
“combing” effect due to scene change and performs more stabilized image.
With IP solution, multiple and authorized users can view the immediate image
from any location through network even using a standard web-browser. It
enables users to access and remote the camera without at specific locations.
