HITACHI - MPEG 4 Video Server & IP Camera solutions

Responding to the growing digital market and the increasing demand to view real time video over IP Networks and the Internet, Hitachi are introducing a range of MPEG 4 solutions.

The requirement for viewing video from anywhere in the world imposes a heavy penalty on most data networks.  Conventional JPEG, MPEG 1 & MPEG 2 data streams create a high level of data traffic.  By sampling the content and compressing in the most efficient manner for each component of the video stream, the Hitachi MPEG 4 products address many of these issues, offering high quality images at very low data rates.

The first products in this range are the MG-400E Server and VK-D400E IP Camera.

Features include:

• 4 x Video inputs PAL (MG-400E only)
• Real time 25 frames/sec video (PAL), (64Kbps - 1Mbps)
• Audio, Bi-directional
• PTZ control via RS-485/RS-422
• Alarm input trigger
• Local viewing via Composite output
