New features extend Sarix? camera offerings to further build
on the commitment to IP-driven, customer-focused products within the Pelco portfolio
Schneider Electric has announced new capabilities to
its Sarix? Enhanced Range with SureVision? 2.0. The
Enhanced Range comprises Pelco’s high end cameras in the trusted line of Sarix
fixed IP cameras, which also includes the Sarix Professional Range and Sarix
Value Range. New features in the Enhanced Range, include Pelco’s integrated
analytics suite and ONVIF profile G compliance at a competitively reduced price.
Today’s news builds on Pelco’s existing IP-driven camera solutions that are
designed for any lighting condition, application and environment and reinforces
the company’s commitment to being IP-driven, customer-focused.
“The Sarix product
launches have been among the most numerous and innovative launches in Pelco’s history,” said
Herve Fages, senior vice president, Schneider Electric, Pelco Video Line of
Business. “We’re now adding
impressive new features to the Sarix Enhanced Range to
meet the needs of our customers by delivering superior functionalities that
will solve monitoring
challenges.”
The latest advancements are ideal for difficult
lighting environments and provide exceptional reliability in mission critical
situations. Advancements include:
·
Integrated
Analytics Suite: Pelco’s
built-in analytics suite uses intelligent algorithms to monitor scenes
continuously and without the risk associated with human error. Every Sarix
Enhanced Range camera with firmware version 2.1 or later comes standard with
eight intelligent video analytics. These analytic tools detect any potential
threats caught on camera and send an alarm to notify system operators of
abnormal activity, enabling a timely and educated incident response.
·
Edge
Storage: The Sarix Enhanced
Range now leverages edge storage to store video, audio, and metadata to an SD
card directly in the camera for uninterrupted monitoring if the connection to the VMS is lost. This enhanced functionality enables
any ONVIF G compliant VMS to retrieve missing video when network connection is
restored for reliable security supervision. Any ONVIF G compliant VMS now has
standardized access to storage in the camera to complement head end storage.
This capability is advantageous for mission-critical installations, such as at
an airport, where edge storage in cameras could be a critical part of the
strategic backup plan.
In addition to the latest system enhancements, Pelco
customers can continue to expect the image quality and reliability available
in the wide range of Sarix Enhanced indoor, environmental and vandal options,
including box cameras and domes. Key benefits include:
·
Performance
IQ: SureVision 2.0
technology delivers advanced low-light capability, true wide dynamic range
(WDR), and anti-bloom technology for industry-leading image quality.Even in
difficult light situations, SureVision 2.0 technology delivers the best
possible image through 3D noise filtering, smooth response to illumination
changes, and improved tone mapping to retain color accuracy and overall image
contrast.
·
Robust
Processing Speed: Sarix Enhanced
cameras offer up to two full HD full frame rate video (up to 1080p 30
ips) using H.264 compression for optimized bandwidth and storage efficiency and
two simultaneous, independently configurable video streams for the most
demanding applications – like casinos and city surveillance.
·
Mission
Critical Applications:
These rugged fixed IP cameras were designed with superior reliability and fault
tolerance for mission-critical applications to ensure users always get the
video needed. Operating temperatures for environmental models can range from up
to -40? to
+50?C (-40? to 122?F)
for environments covering Arctic to desert environments. Dome models include
options that are IP66 rated for dust and water protection, plenum rated for
in-ceiling applications, and impact rated for up to 50J for vandal protection.
With
its Pelco video portfolio, Schneider Electric is a world leader in the design,
development and manufacture of video security systems. All new Sarix cameras integrate with major third-party
video management systems through the Pelco API, and other third-party
software / systems through the open ONVIF profile S and G protocols, to work
seamlessly with Pelco video management systems. For
