1 Product Overview
1.1 Introduction
The Video Matrix Platform is designed by referring to ATCA (Advanced Telecommunications
Computing Architecture) as the modern telecommunication-level device which supersede DVR,
decoder, analog matrix, video wall controller and is compatible with past and current network
monitoring environments.
Main Application: flexible equipping of Function Card; supporting analog camera, HD-SDI
camera, input of various IPCs; outputs of BNC, VGA, HDMI, DVI. It achieves matrix switch,
encoding, decoding and etc. with these abundant interfaces. It supports analysis of video by
video intelligent analysis card, and network storage that leads to centralized storage
management. It also supports online real-time preview and optical cascading function of multiple
matrixes.
Figure 1- 1
1.2 Features
This product is a digital video matrix system with functions of digital video switch, multiple
operation insertion, centralized management, and distributed deployment. It achieves switches
among analog signal, digital signal, HD network signal and HD digital video signal and making
HD image available on video walls. It is a platform product integrating video signal
encoding/decoding, centralized data storage, online real-time preview and various networks, pre-
plan, log, user authority management, device maintenance functions and etc., which allows HD
video command/dispatch and video conference.
1.2.1Structure
19 inch 4U standard rack case for universal uses.
Card-type large scale ATCA structure for simple extension and flexibility.
2 groups of fans for intelligent temperature controlling, contributing to stabilized air passage
with the case structure to balance internal temperature.
Dual-channel redundant power supply for continuous working of device and security of data.
Double blade Function Card.
1.2.2Hardware

2
Intel x 86 Platforms for device expandability and fluency when system is in full load.
High speed connector on compression card, x4 PCI-E gen2，12V DC power supply, for
fluency of high speed data flow.
Compression card’s hot swap button and indicator for users’ flexible extension on the
application and knowledge of compression card status.
Various interfaces of compression card, such as USB, serial, Internet port, HDMI, BNC, DVI
and etc. which guarantee device functions and simplify operation and adjustment done by
users and technical staffs.
Each Function Card works independently to balance system’s work load and ensure fluency.
Duel-high-speed non blocking design for rear panel to meet demand of large volume A/V
data transmission.
1.2.3Software
Embedded LINUX OS: safe, stable, efficient, and easy for development and maintenance.
Video Encoding/Decoding
Each A/V encode card can support 32-ch of BNC or 8-ch of HD-SDI, 4-ch of DVI (supports
DVI, VGA, HDMI signal) and 8-ch of HDCVI.
Each A/V decode card can support 64-ch of D1 or 16-ch HD1080P decoding output.
Network Function
2 RJ45 interfaces, supporting 1000M network.
Support TCP/IP protocol including TCP，UDP，RTP，RTSP, PPPoE，DHCP，DNS，
DDNS，NTP，SADP，SMTP，ISCSI and etc.
Support NAS, IP SAN network centralized storage, and support receiving system log
remotely.
Support management software to achieve remotely switching between analog and digital
videos on video wall and control with keyboard.
Support remotely receiving and configuring parameter, remotely rebooting and remotely
inputting/outputting parameters.
Video Management
Support HD, SD digital matrix, and direct switch as non-compression bit stream which
eliminate image quality reduction after multiple switches of video signal.
Support HD, SD network IPC matrix.
Support digital video full crossing switch matrix, based on different applied compression card
combination, forming different digital video full crossing switch matrix with different
specifications.
A/V decode card supports HDMI, DVI, VGA and BNC interfaces support up to
1080P(1920*1080P) resolution output.
Allow operator to loop display different images on same screen, pre-set and switch as group.

3
Splicing image favorites, simplified operations on multiple video channels.
Other
Complete set of operation, alarm, abnormality and log recording, simplifying user and
technical staff’s maintenance.
Complete user authority management and storage management, while the authority can be
subdivided into a channel and a single HDD, making the device more user-friendly.
Support local and remote update, guaranteeing update to catch changing market demand.
Support network storage to accommodate demand from medium to large monitoring
systems.
Multiple users and clients login, convenient for users to preview and manage monitoring
whenever and wherever possible.
