JVC UNVEILS MEGAPIXEL
IP-NETWORK CAMERA
FOR CRITICAL SURVIELLENCE
APPLICATIONS Expands V.Networks line-up with Full Motion
Multi-Stream IP Camera Provides 4x Image Resolution of Traditional
VGA
ATLANTA, GA
(September 15, 2008) –
JVC has expanded its V.Networks line-up of advanced IP based video
security products with the introduction of the new VN-X35U IP
security camera. Combining JVC’s latest IP technologies, this new
1.3 megapixel camera offers real-time image scaling from VGA to
QUAD VGA, without affecting the viewing angle, allowing users to
conserve bandwidth with VGA images, yet benefit from megapixel
resolution when needed.
Education, retail, government, law
enforcement and other users that require the highest resolution will
also benefit from the VN-X35U’s ability to digitally zoom in on
the recorded image to provide precise image detail in any conditions
day or night. The VN-X35U creates a surveillance environment where
the user can see an image at four times the resolution of standard
IP network cameras.
“JVC’s has taken another bold step
forward with the introduction of the VN-X35U. While megapixel
technology is not uncommon, JVC’s implementation in the camera
makes it useful, practical and economical,” said Geoff Anderson,
national marketing manager for Security Products, JVC Professional
Products Company. “Realtime scalability gives the viewer
megapixel resolution at critical moments, while providing a
bandwidth friendly VGA signal at other times. Our customers are
demanding this feature.”
The VN-X35U utilizes a highly sensitive 1/3”
progressive scan CCD with 1.3 megapixels. A full motion
multi-stream codec delivers both JPEG and MPEG-4 streams
simultaneously at 15 frames per second. In addition, bi-directional
audio with built-in microphone and speaker jacks, provides not only
audio information necessary for forensic evaluation purposes, but
the ability to communicate with people at the camera's location.
With QUAD-VGA resolution, up to four times the area can be monitored
so fewer cameras are required for surveillance. The digital PTZ
function allows panning and zooming of the image with no moving
parts. This can not only save money on the initial purchase, but
adds reliability and reduces maintenance costs.
The VN-X35U features a motion detection
function that outputs an alarm, with two inputs and two outputs,
whenever movement is detected within a pre-specified area of the
image.
The camera’s easy day/night operation delivers images in light levels as
low as 0.3 lux in color and 0.2 lux in black & white mode.
Proper video levels are ensured with an advanced AGC (Automatic gain
control) that optimizes picture quality at all times during the day.
The
VN-X35U supports industry standard Power over Ethernet (POE) for
quick installation. Video, audio and power are carried on a single
Ethernet cable instead of separate data and AC power cables.
V.Networks products combine JVC's legendary
high picture quality with state-of-the-art IP technology. As one of
the first manufacturers of IP based video cameras and network
recorders, .JVC is the only major brand that designs and builds the
key components in its IP systems in its own factories. Plug and play
features greatly simplify installation and configuration for system
integrators, while JVC's open platform provides superb value
opportunity for resellers. As part of JVC's V.Networks system,
the VN-X35U is the perfect complement to JVC's
VR-N900U or VR-N1600U network video recorders which provide an
all-digital IP security solution for small to enterprise level
security systems.
The VN-X35U
will be available in
October 2008. High-resolution photos and color brochures are
available on the JVC Web site at http://pro.jvc.com/newsroom.
