576 Sony Corporation has announced it will incorporate the new Intersil Security Link Over Coax (SLOC) technology into a number of its 2011 IP camera models, which will further enable the adoption of IP video surveillance.

The SLOC technology, developed by the Intersil Techwell team, allows simultaneous transmission of analogue CVBS video and digital IP video over a single coaxial cable, enabling megapixel IP cameras to operate on existing CCTV coaxial infrastructure at distances of up to 500m. This hybrid surveillance system supports latency-free analogue CCTV as well as networked IP surveillance functionalities. The SLOC device will be incorporated directly into Sony's security cameras, providing customers with a flexible solution that allows latency-free live viewing and traditional real-time PTZ control.

"We are pleased that Intersil's new technology will enable us to offer new value to our customers by bringing an HD network camera solution to their existing SD infrastructure," says Takashi Honda, deputy senior general manager, Visual Security Solution business division, Sony Corporation.
