The new SNC-P1 camera from Sony, utilizes MPEG4 compression to allow smooth 30 fps (320 x 240) refresh under limited bandwidths. For maximum resolution, the SNC-P1 can still stream 640 X 480 (VGA) size images. Audio anyone? Yes, the SNC-P1 has a built-in microphone (even has an external mic input) to allow audio streaming! Talk back system? The SNC-P1 also features an active speaker output to enable one to 'announce' his virtual presence! And, for legacy systems, it even has an analog video output available via the mini-jack port.

| Features | Benefits: |
|---|---|
| All-in-One Network Camera | The SNC-P1 incorporates a 1/4-type progressive scan CCD, built-in microphone, and 100Base-TX/10Base-T (RJ-45) network interface in a compact and stylish body. With its built-in web server, the SNC-P1 allows users to monitor images and manage the camera on a PC running a standard web browser; additional software is not needed. |
| MPEG-4 Compression Format | The SNC-P1 utilizes the MPEG-4 compression format that achieves high-compression ratios, allowing smooth moving images to be streamed over a wide range of bandwidths. Because of its high-compression ratios, users can monitor high-quality moving images with low delay even at low bandwidths. The transmission mode (TCP or UDP) and image size can be selected according to the network environment and application requirements. Image size can be selected from six modes: 640 x 480, 480 x 360, 384 x 288, 320 x 240, 256 x 192, and 160 x 120. What's more, the SNC-P1 supports variable bit rate up to 2 Mbps, providing high-quality images. |
| JPEG Compression Format | In addition to the MPEG-4 compression format, the SNC-P1 employs the industry-standard JPEG compression format. The image size can be selected from six modes: 640 x 480, 480 x 360, 384 x 288, 320 x 240, 256 x 192 and 160 x 120. |
| High Frame Rate | The SNC-P1 produces images with a maximum frame rate of 30 fps* at 320 x 240 size in both MPEG-4 and JPEG modes, allowing clear and smooth images to be viewed. The frame rate can be fixed or set to a variable rate that automatically adjusts to the available bandwidth. |
| Audio Monitoring | Incorporating a built-in microphone and an external microphone input, the SNC-P1 allows users to monitor audio in addition to video images. Used with an external microphone, the SNC-P1 is capable of picking up sound from distant objects clearly. The unit is also equipped with an audio line output for active speakers; users can send an alert or make an announcement at the camera site through speakers. This significantly expands the possibility of remote monitoring applications. |
| Adaptive Rate Control | To implement Quality of Service (QoS) technology on the network, the SNC-P1 provides adaptive rate control function which automatically varies the bit rate of audio and video data corresponding to changing network conditions and selects the most appropriate frame rates. This function helps prevent audio and video breakup. |
| Multicasting Capability | The SNC-P1 has a built-in multicasting capability that enables efficient video and audio streaming to a large number of users. |
| Simultaneous Access | Up to 20 (JPEG mode)/10 (MPEG-4 mode) users can simultaneously access the SNC-P1 and monitor images separately. |
| IP Filtering | With IP filtering, access to the SNC-P1 can be restricted to one or more groups of selected users. Up to ten different groups can be established by defining an IP address range for each group. |
| Simultaneous Access | Up to 20 (JPEG mode)/10 (MPEG-4 mode) users can simultaneously access the SNC-P1 and monitor images separately. |
| IP Filtering | With IP filtering, access to the SNC-P1 can be restricted to one or more groups of selected users. Up to ten different groups can be established by defining an IP address range for each group. |
| Password Protection | User names and passwords can be assigned to allow three levels of access. The administrator has complete access/control of the cameras; while the other two levels of access can be set to limit user privileges to functions such as viewing, trigger control, etc. |
| Motion Detection*/Alarm Trigger | The SNC-P1 is equipped with a built-in motion detection function that can generate an alarm through an alarm-output port or trigger various actions. Unlike conventional activity detection, the SNC-P1 uses vector information to detect motion, achieving robustness against noise components. The SNC-P1 is also equipped with an sensor-input port that can receive a trigger from an external sensor. *the motion detection function is available only with MPEG-4 compression. |
| Pre-/Post-Alarm Image Storage | With the built-in buffer memory, the SNC-P1 can store several seconds of pre-alarm and post-alarm still images when an alarm is triggered by the motion detection, the sensor input, or both. Image storage capacity MPEG 4 image: Approx. 30 s* (pre-/post- 15 s) JPEG image: Approx. 10 s* (pre-/post- 5 s) *when the image size is 320 x 240 at a frame rate of 30fps and a bit rate of 512 kbps *when the image size is 320 x 240 at a frame rate of 15fps and the image quality is set to Level 3 |
| Image Transfer Using FTP/SMTP* | The pre-/post-alarm images stored at the time of an alarm event can be transferred to an FTP server for later viewing. Also, when the unit is set to JPEG mode, still images can be sent to a specified e-mail address, enabling the user to view images that were shot at the time of the alarm *All images transferred using SMTP are in JPEG format. |
| User-Friendly Controls | The SNC-P1 has been designed with special care to ensure simple operation. Setup parameters are organized in a two-layer menu system, categorized into an Easy Mode and an Advanced Mode. Easy Mode allows access to only the standard setup functions, while Advanced Mode allows access to all setup functions. Settings can be easily adjusted using a user-friendly GUI on the PC monitor. |
| Flexible Installation | The SNC-P1 can be placed on a desktop, wall-mounted, or ceiling-mounted with the supplied camera stand. Incorporating an electronic "Image Flip" function, the SNC-P1 displays the image for proper upright viewing regardless of the camera's orientation. |
| Analog Composite Video Output | The SNC-P1 has an analog composite video output from the mini-jack connector located on its side panel. This allows camera images to be directly recorded or monitored by connecting video equipment such as time-lapse recorders, hard disk recorders, multiplexers, and monitors. |
