H.264 / MPEG-4 Protocol Options

H.264/MPEG-4 Protocol Options

Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of H�264 or MPEG-4 streaming:

UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time video streams� However, network packets may be lost due to network burst traffic and images may be broken. Activate UDP connection when occasions require time-sensitive responses and the video quality is less important� Note that each unicast client connecting to the server takes up additional bandwidth and the Network Camera allows up to ten simultaneous accesses�

UDP multicast: This protocol allows multicast-enabled routers to forward network packets to all clients requesting streaming media� This helps to reduce the network transmission load of the Network Camera while serving multiple clients at the same time� Note that to utilize this feature, the Network Camera must be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time� For more information, please refer to RTSP Streaming on page 49�

TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video quality� The downside of this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol�

HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol without needing to open specific ports for streaming under some network environments� Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow streaming data through�

FD8361L specifications

The Vivotek FD8361L is a sophisticated network camera designed specifically for outdoor surveillance and monitoring applications. It is part of the FD series, which is renowned for its reliability and high-performance features. The FD8361L boasts a robust and elegant design, making it suitable for various environments while providing excellent video quality and performance.

One of the standout features of the FD8361L is its 2-megapixel resolution, which delivers high-definition images and ensures clear and detailed video capture. This camera can record at a frame rate of up to 30 frames per second (fps) at 1080p, suitable for fast-moving objects and dynamic scenes. This high-performance video capture is crucial for security applications, allowing for accurate identification and monitoring.

The camera is equipped with WDR Pro (Wide Dynamic Range) technology, enabling it to perform well in challenging lighting conditions. This feature helps to balance the exposure levels in environments where both bright and dark areas are present, ensuring clear visibility without overexposed highlights or underexposed shadows.

Another significant characteristic of the FD8361L is its Infrared (IR) functionality, which provides night vision capabilities. With built-in IR LEDs, the camera can capture clear images even in total darkness, reaching distances of up to 30 meters. This ensures 24/7 surveillance, making it ideal for areas requiring constant monitoring.

In terms of durability, the FD8361L is constructed with an IP66-rated housing, making it weatherproof and resistant to harsh environmental conditions such as rain, wind, and dust. Additionally, it is equipped with a robust metal casing that provides extra protection against vandalism, making it suitable for outdoor installations in high-risk areas.

The FD8361L also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, allowing for simpler installation by enabling power and data transmission through a single cable. This feature reduces the need for additional power sources, streamlining setup and operation.

With advanced features like smart stream technology, which optimizes bandwidth usage by adjusting the quality of streaming video, this camera ensures efficient data transmission without compromising image quality. Furthermore, it supports various video compression formats, including H.264 and MJPEG, allowing for flexibility in network and storage configurations.

Overall, the Vivotek FD8361L is a versatile and high-performing network camera influenced by contemporary surveillance needs, providing significant contributions to security and monitoring in diverse applications. Its combination of excellent image quality, advanced technologies, and durable design makes it an excellent choice for both residential and commercial surveillance solutions.
