Description

The NET5308T-EXP multichannel dual stream video encoder is an enterprise-class, 8-input video encoding unit that is used exclusively with the NET5300B base module. Designed to accommodate the stringent requirements of high-performance video monitoring applications, each NET5308T-EXP converts eight channels of live analog video into dual MPEG-4 video streams at up to 4CIF resolution and 30 images per second (ips) per stream.

The NET5308T-EXP captures up to eight audio inputs simultaneously. It provides this powerful video and audio encoding capability in an extremely small footprint, thus optimizing the physical space required for video monitoring and recording operations. Once converted to MPEG-4, the unit transmits these streams over a USB 2.0 interface through its NET5300B to an NVR5100 Series network video recorder or other Endura® video recorder. These streams can be decoded by the following Endura components:

•NET5301R video decoder: Converts up to 4 video streams for display or recording on an analog device.

•Endura workstation: Converts up to 16 video streams for display on a computer monitor.

•VCD5000 video console display: Converts up to 64 video streams (depending on model) for display or recording on an analog device.

•CM9700MDD-EVS matrix video decoder: Converts 1 video stream for display on matrix monitors.

•GW5000 Endura gateway: Delivers up to 4 simultaneous video streams from the Endura network to users communicating through a public network with limited bandwidth, such as a Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN), or the Internet.

The NET5308T-EXP can be configured for eight alarm inputs and four relay outputs. When an alarm event is triggered, the Endura system can send a message to an operator, trigger a relay, and implement video recording.

The unit also supports activity detection. You can configure up to four activity zones per video input. When the NET5308T-EXP detects activity in any of these areas, it can trigger an alarm event.

The NET5308T-EXP supports one audio input for each video input, and associates the audio with the primary video stream. The system operators (security personnel) can hear activity at the associated camera site over the network.

The NET5308T-EXP with its NET5300B supports control of pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras. It supports Pelco D, Pelco P, and Coaxitron® protocols. With Coaxitron, the NET5300B receives commands from a Pelco controller and transmits those commands to the PTZ device through the NET5308T-EXP. With Pelco D/Pelco P, the NET5300B transmits those commands directly to the PTZ device over a serial connection.

With its modular design, you can connect up to two NET5308T-EXP units to each NET5300B for a maximum of 16 analog video inputs per NET5300B.

Video can be monitored and played from the CM9700 Series (CM9760/9770/9780) matrix, an Endura workstation, or a VCD5000 video console display.

NET5308T-EXP specifications

The Pelco NET5308T-EXP is an advanced network video encoder designed for high-performance video surveillance applications. This versatile device is notable for its ability to transform analog video feeds into digital signals, allowing for seamless integration with modern IP-based systems. This makes it an essential component for facilities looking to upgrade their security setups while retaining existing cameras.

One of the key features of the NET5308T-EXP is its capacity to handle up to eight analog video channels. This multi-channel capability allows users to manage multiple cameras through a single device, simplifying the installation and reducing the overall cost of upgrading surveillance systems. Each channel can process video in high-definition, ensuring that captured footage maintains clarity and detail, which is crucial for effective monitoring and incident investigation.

The NET5308T-EXP employs advanced H.264 video compression technology, which optimizes bandwidth usage without compromising video quality. This codec allows for the transmission of high-resolution video streams while minimizing data storage requirements. With the growing need for efficient data management in surveillance systems, this feature becomes invaluable, particularly in environments where bandwidth is limited.

Another significant aspect of the NET5308T-EXP is its support for Power over Ethernet (PoE). This technological integration enables the device to receive power and transmit data over a single Ethernet cable, greatly simplifying installation. It eliminates the need for multiple power sources and power adapters, allowing for cleaner setups and reducing cable clutter.

Moreover, the encoder includes advanced motion detection capabilities, which can trigger alerts based on movement within the camera’s field of view. These features can be essential for ensuring that security personnel are notified of potential security breaches in real time. Additionally, the device supports various networking protocols, enhancing its compatibility with a wide range of video management systems.

The NET5308T-EXP is designed for reliability and durability in various operating conditions. Its robust construction allows it to function in a range of environments, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor applications alike. With features such as video loss detection and alarm inputs, the device further assures its status as a top-tier solution for comprehensive security needs.

Overall, the Pelco NET5308T-EXP is an exceptional choice for organizations looking to modernize their surveillance technology without the need to overhaul existing infrastructure. With its multi-channel support, advanced compression technology, PoE capabilities, and intelligent alert systems, it represents a significant advancement in video surveillance technology, providing users with high-quality performance and flexibility.
