SETTINGS MENUS OF THE ENCODER

NETWORK page

Item Descriptions

Note: It is necessary to restart the encoder to save the changed settings. Otherwise, the changed settings will not be saved. Restarting the encoder can be done on the MAINTENANCE page. Click the [MAINTENANCE] button in the left column to go to the MAINTENANCE page and click the [RESTART] button on the MAINTENANCE page. It will take around 2 minutes and 45 seconds for the encoder to become operable after the restart.

Perform the following settings after referring to a network administrator about the setting items. Perform the settings only when the SW4 switch on the front panel of the encoder is set to OFF.

IP ADDRESS

Enter the IP address of the encoder.

When the SW4 switch on the front panel of the encoder is set to ON, an IP address assigned by DHCP will be displayed.

The default setting is "192.168.0.10".

SUBNET MASK

Enter the subnet mask of the encoder to connect to the network.

When the SW4 switch on the front panel of the encoder is set to ON, a subnet mask assigned by DHCP will be displayed.

The default setting is "255.255.255.0".

DEFAULT GATEWAY

Enter the default gateway to connect to the network. When the SW4 switch on the front panel of the encoder is set to ON, a default gateway assigned by DHCP will be displayed.

The default setting is "192.168.0.1".

DNS SERVER

Enter the IP address of the DNS server to connect to the network.

The default setting is "0.0.0.0".

MAC ADDRESS

The MAC address of the encoder will be displayed. It is impossible to change this value.

SPEED/DUPLEX

Select a transmission speed between the encoder and a network device such as a switching hub or a router from the following.

AUTO: Transmission speed will be automatically set.

100BASE-TX FULL DUPLEX: Sending and receiving data will be performed simultaneously.

100BASE-TX HALF DUPLEX: Sending and receiving data will be performed alternately.

The default setting is "AUTO".

WJ-GXD900, WJ-GXE900 specifications

The Panasonic WJ-GXE900 and WJ-GXD900 are top-tier video encoders designed to meet the increasing demands of surveillance applications. These devices are essential in providing high-quality video transmission over IP networks, making them ideal for both security and monitoring purposes.

One of the standout features of the WJ-GXE900 is its advanced encoding capability. It supports H.265 and H.264 compression standards, allowing for efficient bandwidth usage without compromising video quality. This technology is particularly beneficial for environments where bandwidth might be limited, as it significantly reduces the data load while maintaining impressive clarity, even in challenging lighting conditions.

The WJ-GXD900, on the other hand, is designed for high-definition video encoding. It also utilizes H.265 and H.264 technologies, but offers enhanced image processing capabilities. This includes advanced noise reduction, which helps to produce clearer images during low-light situations. Both models utilize 4K resolution support, allowing users to capture ultra-high-definition video, which is crucial for applications requiring detailed surveillance footage.

Another key characteristic of both models is their versatility in integration with IP cameras and other devices. They are compatible with a wide range of Panasonic and third-party IP cameras, ensuring that users can build a surveillance system tailored to their specific needs. This interoperability is vital for large installations where multiple camera types might be used.

The WJ-GXE900 and WJ-GXD900 also feature intuitive web-based interfaces, simplifying the setup and configuration processes. Users can easily manage settings, stream video, and monitor performance remotely from any device with internet access. This remote management capability is increasingly important in today's fast-paced environments, where quick responses and monitoring are critical.

Additionally, both models support multiple streaming options, including the ability to deliver video to various destinations simultaneously. This feature is particularly useful for organizations needing to distribute video feeds to multiple monitors or devices, enhancing real-time surveillance capabilities.

In conclusion, the Panasonic WJ-GXE900 and WJ-GXD900 are powerful video encoders that combine advanced technology with user-friendly features. Their support for high-quality video encoding, integration flexibility, and remote management capabilities make them excellent choices for any modern surveillance system. These devices exemplify Panasonic's commitment to innovation, reliability, and high-performance solutions in the realm of security technology.
