While ACTi is going forward with the development of multi-megapixel cameras carrying market leading technologies, another important product line has been released at the same time to satisfy the needs of a large market segment – the budget sensitive projects that have high demand for perfect video evidence, but at the same time expect to have all the other less important features of the camera removed in order to optimise the cost of the project.
The newly released simplified TCM-series 1.3-Megapixel models come with the same video quality as their fully featured counterparts while having much more attractive price.
While working on the project proposal, you may consider combining the fully featured and simplified models – for the locations where specific non-video functions are required such as audio or alarm inputs, you may suggest the complete version, and for other locations where only the good video quality matters, you may go with the optimised model.
All these new TCM-series models are also very economical in terms of power consumption; therefore they are all able to work with PoE Class 2 power supply, which means that it is further possible to optimise the cost of the project by introducing PoE Class 2 data switches instead of Class 3.
ACTi VMS supports these 4 new models already today. The leading third party software vendors will also integrate these models within 1-2 months.
