The SNC-RX550N incorporates the latest image processing technology to provide multiple compression formats. Together with the variety of key features for surveillance and remote monitoring, such as Day/Night function, to provide clear images even in low light conditions, Intelligent Motion Detection and Intelligent Object Detection, the SNC-RX550N cameras can take your surveillance and remote monitoring applications to the next level.
Highlights:
- 360-degree Endless Pan/Tilt/Zoom Capability: The SNC-RX550N has high speed 360 degree endless panning capability and a tilt range of 90 degree.
- 26X optical zoom (312X with digital zoom)
- High Quality Images and High Sensitivity: Employing the latest 1/4 type Exwave HAD CCD for exceptional picture quality and with a minimum illumination level of 1.0 lx at F1.6, the camera captures high-contrast images even in low-light conditions.
- Selectable JPEG, MPEG4 and H.264 Compression Formats
- High Frame Rate: Maximum frame rate of 30fps in VGA (640 x 480) in both MPEG4 and JPEG formats.
- Dual Codec (Dual Streaming) Capability: The SNC-RX550N is equipped with dual encoding capability that enables the camera to generate both MPEG4 and JPEG images simultaneously.
- Image Stabilizer: Minimizes the appearance of shaky images caused by low-frequency vibration so that stable and sharp images are provided.
- Day/Night Function: Provides optimized sensitivity in both day and night environments.
- Anti-tampering Function: Incorporating a digital signature technology using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), the SNC-RX550N allows users to verify the origin of images and helps prevent tampering.
- Intelligent Alarm Function: Intelligent Motion Detection-Unlike conventional motion detection which typically detects luminance level differences, the SNC-RX550N utilizes the last 15 frames to calculate motion detection information.
- Intelligent Alarm Function: Intelligent Object Detection-The SNC-RX550N can detect objects that have been left in one place for a specified duration.
| Features | Benefits: |
|---|---|
| 360-degree Endless Pan/Tilt/Zoom Capability | The SNC-RX550 has a high-speed 360-degree endless panning (or rotation) capability and a tilt range of 90-degree, which allows users to precisely capture almost any object surrounding the camera. Also, with its powerful 26x optical zoom (312x with digital zoom), users can zoom in on small or distant objects with exceptional clarity. |
| High-Quality Images and High-Sensitivity | Employing the latest 1/4-type Exwave HAD CCD, the SNC-RX550 delivers exceptional picture quality for your remote monitoring applications. And with a minimum illumination level of 1.0 lx at F 1.6 in color, the camera captures high-contrast images even in low-light conditions. |
| Selectable JPEG, MPEG-4, H.264 Compression Formats | The SNC-RX550 supports three compression formats, JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264*. MPEG-4 provides clear moving images efficiently over networks even with limited network bandwidth. For higher compression, when bandwidth is even more limited, H.264, which achieves two times more compression than MPEG-4, is available. If high quality still images are preferred, then the industry standard JPEG compression format is selectable. The image size can be selected from three modes to meet your network environment and application requirements. * H.264 compressed video cannot be viewed using a browser. This function will be available with a software upgrade in the future. |
| High Frame Rate | The SNC-RX550 supports a maximum frame rate of 30 fps when the image size is VGA (640 x 480) in both MPEG-4 and JPEG modes, producing clear and smooth-moving images. The frame rate can be set to meet your network environment and system requirements. |
| Dual Encoding Capability | The SNC-RX550 is equipped with a dual encoding capability that enables the camera to generate both MPEG-4 and JPEG images simultaneously. For example, you can set up your system to transfer MPEG-4 images over a WAN or an Internet VPN, where network bandwidth is limited, while storing high-resolution JPEG images on a server configured on the LAN. |
| Image Stabilizer | The image stabilizer function minimizes the appearance of shaky images caused by low-frequency vibration so that stable and sharp images are provided. This function is useful for outdoor surveillance and traffic monitoring applications. |
| "Day/Night" Function | The SNC-RX550 offers a "Day/Night" function to provide optimized sensitivity in both day and night environments. As the scene darkens, the infrared cut filter is automatically replaced with a clear filter and the camera switches to B/W mode, requiring a minimum illumination of less than 0.15 lx. In this mode, the camera is also sensitive to near IR illuminators, allowing it to operate even in 0 lx* conditions. * 0 lx means absence of visible light to the naked eye. |
| Anti-tampering Function | Incorporating a digital signature technology using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), the SNC-RX550 allows users to verify the origin of images and ensure the integrity of images against tampering*. This is done by creating a digital certificate for each camera manufactured and applying digital signatures in the form of metadata to all images produced by that camera; this combination assures that an image produced by a camera is unique only to that camera. * This function is available only with recording software that complies with the Sony digital signature scheme. For more details, please consult your nearest Sony dealer. |
| Intelligent Motion Detection | The SNC-RX550 is equipped with a built-in intelligent motion detection function that can trigger a variety of actions such as storing and transferring images or that can trigger an external device through its output relays. Unlike with conventional motion detection, the SNC-RX550 utilizes the last 15 frames to calculate motion detection information and to trigger the alarm when motion is detected. This prevents unwanted noise components from accidentally triggering an alarm, providing more accurate detection and reducing the number of false triggers. |
| Intelligent Object Detection | The SNC-RX550 can detect objects that have been left in one place for a specified duration*. Up to four detection areas can be designated. This feature can be useful for applications such as detecting suspicious objects left in public spaces, or for detecting stalled cars or accidents on the road. * The intelligent object detection function and motion detection function cannot be used simultaneously. |
| Sensor IN/Alarm OUT ports | Equipped with two sensor inputs, the SNC-RX550 can receive triggers from external sensors. Also, two alarm outputs can be used to trigger other devices to perform a variety of actions. |
| Pre-/Post-Alarm Image Storage | The SNC-RX550 is capable of storing both pre-and post-alarm images on removable media such as ATA memory cards and Memory Stick media when an alarm is triggered. |
| Image Transfer Using FTP/SMTP | All of the pre-/post-alarm images stored at the time of an alarm event can be transferred to an FTP server for later viewing. Also, a still image at the time of an alarm event can be sent to a designated e-mail address*. * All images transferred using SMTP are in JPEG format. |
| Simultaneous Access | Up to 20 users can simultaneously access the SNC-RX550 and monitor images eparately. |
| Multicasting Capability | The SNC-RX550 has a built-in multicasting capability for MPEG-4 and H.264 video. When configured with a multicast router, the unit can efficiently stream video and audio to a large number of users. |
| IP Filtering | With IP filtering, access to the SNC-RX550 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 five levels of access. The administrator has complete access/control of the cameras; while the other four levels of access can be set to limit user privileges to functions such as PTZ control, viewing, and trigger control. |
| Memory Stick Slot and PC Card Slot | Both Memory Stick and PC card slots are integrated into the SNC-RX550, enabling you to store images on removable media as required. |
