Characteristics of network cameras

With the continuous development of science and technology, the competition of security products is also very large. Now the types of security products are countless in the market. Network cameras integrate video compression and network transmission processing modules on the basis of analog cameras, so they have both the technical characteristics of analog cameras and video servers. So what are the technical characteristics of the network camera? This article will give you a brief introduction, let's take a look!

Remote real-time monitoring: Taking advantage of the network, the digitized and compressed image data can reach the place where the network can reach, realizing remote monitoring.

Power over Ethernet saves costs and improves stability: The network camera makes it possible to supply power to the camera through the network cable, and people no longer need to power the camera separately. The 802.3 standard POE method has been verified and successfully applied. In the past, people couldn't imagine using a small network cable to power the camera. This technology brings convenience to people and saves costs. Another advantage of the POE method is that since the power is collected from the switch in the computer room, this centralized power supply method can ensure the stability of the power supply.

High system performance: The system screen is flexible, and the screen size, resolution and monitoring location can be set according to different applications and user preferences to achieve the purpose of multi-point network control. Through the software, multiple users can access a certain network camera at the same time. When an alarm is triggered, it can automatically store the active images in a certain period of time before and after the alarm, which has many functions.

Mobile video analysis and alarm function: It can analyze the moving targets in the scene and determine whether to alarm by comparing the preset values.

The above are the characteristics of network cameras. In real life, due to their many characteristics, network cameras have a very wide application field. The fields involved include buildings, transportation, public security, mining, environmental protection, administrative agencies, sports venues, etc., which need to be monitored. Network cameras are installed in most places in the range.
