Description

The NET5301T-I intelligent video encoder is a dual-purpose video encoding unit and video analytics processor. As a video encoder, it converts live analog video into dual MPEG-4 video streams. It can process up to 30 NTSC (25 PAL) images per second (ips) per stream at 4CIF resolution. It transmits these streams over an Ethernet network to other Endura® system components. Then these streams can be recorded on an Endura video recorder or decoded by the following Endura components:

NET5301R video decoder: Converts up to 4 video streams for display.

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.

The NET5301T-I adds a sophisticated video analytics engine to the video encoder function. Once installed and configured, object and activity detection behaviors can interpret activity in the field of view and trigger an alarm when unwanted activity is detected. This ability to process video analytics at the edge conserves network bandwidth; the unit only transmits video streams that have triggered an analytics alarm.

The unit also improves operator effectiveness when monitoring both large and small installations. These sophisticated analysis techniques monitor each frame of video and only alert the operator to cameras and scenes that warrant attention.

Like all Endura encoders, the NET5301T-I incorporates EnduraViewvideo optimization technology to select the best image quality and frame rate for the target Endura product (decoder, workstation, console), all without affecting the system recording rate. For example, the unit selects a high rate and quality setting for recording and automatically selects a lower rate for viewing in a multiple view format.

The NET5301T-I can be configured for three alarm inputs and one relay output. When an alarm event is triggered, the unit can send a message to an operator, trigger a relay, and implement video recording.

The NET5301T-I also supports activity detection. You can configure up to three activity zones, each with its own independent sensitivity and threshold settings. When the NET5301T-I detects activity in any of these areas, it can trigger an alarm event.

The unit supports one audio input over the network. The system operator (security personnel) can see and hear activity in the target area.

The NET5301T-I can run in both unsecured and secured modes. The secure mode uses a proprietary key system to prevent unauthorized devices from communicating with a NET5301T-I over the Endura network.

All Endura products support Pelco P/Pelco D and Coaxitron® protocols. As a result, the NET5301T-I supports control of remote peripherals such as pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras.
