686 Pelco's new Spectra IV IP high-speed P/T/Z camera dome system, featuring H.264 compression, gives users the flexibility to select MJPEG, MPEG4 or industry-leading H.264 compression. Compared to MPEG4 compression, H.264 dramatically reduces bandwidth consumption and storage requirements while providing superior image quality.

"By adding our new Spectra IP TXB-N cartridge into an existing Spectra IV analogue dome system, customers can utilise IP video with H.264 compression without losing analogue viewing and control," says Pelco senior product manager, Brian Lane. "Along with H.264 compression quality, Spectra IV's improved x27 and x35 cameras feature better focus capabilities, a new lens for sharper image quality, and frame noise reduction for a cleaner image, all resulting in a better picture than ever for the customer."

    Vicon Industries has introduced its VN-901T single-channel video encoder, which converts NTSC or PAL video from any analogue camera into an ONVIF-compliant video stream that can be integrated into most IP video management systems, including ViconNet VMS. The device transmits H.264 high-profile, MPEG-4 and M-JPEG video compression formats with dual streaming. All camera features are supported through the encoder, including PTZ. The device may be powered by either PoE or 12V DC/24V AC. Two alarm inputs, on

    Vicon Industries has introduced two new H.264 network encoders - four-channel and 16-channel models - that convert analogue camera inputs (both NTSC/EIA and PAL/CCIR) into streamed IP video data. Advanced features such as museum search that permits users to conduct quick analysis of recorded events, as well as dynamic load balancing and automatic detection, are provided when the device is used as part of a ViconNet Video Management System (VMS).

The company invented the network camera in 1996, making it possible to connect a video camera directly to a computer network (commonly referred to as IP video). The shift from analog to IP has changed the global security market. According to Axis, with network cameras being based on open IP standards, authorised users can get secure and flexible a
