TECHNOLOGY
As a Manufacturer of innovative cameras for video surveillance — as well as broadcast television, medical imaging, and consumer applications — JVC is uniquely positioned to deliver cameras that provide the highest quality images. JVC has been at the forefront of the transition to IP-based video surveillance equipment, and is leading the way once again as the security industry moves toward HD imaging and recording.
Many manufacturers rushed ahead with CMOS technology to deliver HD resolution, but they sacrificed low-light performance in the process. We refused to compromise on performance, which is why our CMOS-based cameras took a little longer to come to market — but deliver the same outstanding picture quality and low-light performance as our CCD-based cameras.
Recently, competitors have touted H.264 for file-based security installations, with claims that it is far more efficient than M-JPEG or MPEG-4 compression. However, there are several H.264 "flavors" or profiles — Baseline, Main, and High Profile are the most popular — and they are not created equal. Most camera manufacturers in the security marketplace have adopted Baseline Profile, which only improves efficiency by 15 percent at best. JVC cameras support H.264 High Profile, the same profile used for Blu-ray technology, which delivers on the promise of reducing storage and bandwidth requirements by up to 80 percent.
LEGACY
While we are leading the way with innovative IP-based camera solutions, JVC remains commited to our line of analog cameras to support existing installations. Our analog product line includes indoor and outdoor cameras to suit a variety of installations, with advanced features that offer outstanding performance and reliability.
CHOICES
There is no one-size-fits-all strategy for security and surveillance, and JVC's product line offers a diverse group of camera models and network video recorders to suit your requirements and your budget. From analog box cameras with 600 lines of resolution to Super LoLux HD™ 1080p vandal-proof IP-based domes (and everything in between), we have the right cameras for your CCTV system.
