Bosch IP technology provides video and control over
IP for MIC550, MIC550IR, and MIC612 cameras.
u Easy-to-install, IP67-rated enclosure has high
tolerance to vibration/shock for both indoor and
outdoor installations.
A full range of MIC Series power supply units (PSUs),
with integrated Bosch IP technology and built-in
support for NTCIP protocol, provides all connections
for power, telemetry and video for MIC Series MIC550,
MIC550IR, and MIC612 cameras. These MIC IP PSUs
ensure that the cameras can be installed in a variety of
locations, including low voltage and mobile
applications. They conform to the National
Transportation Communications for ITS Protocol
(NTCIP) specification. NTCIP conformance ensures
that the MIC IP PSU integrates with transportation
management devices.
Each power supply has UL, CE, and FCC approval, is
rated to IP67, supports 50/60 Hz, and comes in a
selection of input voltages. The PSU housing also has
slots for optional cards, such as the 8-channel alarm
card including washer pump drive (MIC-ALM).
The built-in encoder features DVD-like quality H.264
video, at up to 25/30 images per second, over IP
networks. It provides Dual Streaming (two

Functions
Intelligence
With built-in video content analysis, the MIC IP PSU
reinforces the Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept where
edge devices become increasingly intelligent. The MIC
IP PSU comes with built-in MOTION+ video motion
detection. This motion detection algorithm is based on
pixel change and includes object size filtering
capabilities and sophisticated tamper detection
capabilities.
Bosch offers more advanced video content analysis
(VCA) applications with its Intelligent Video Analysis
(IVA). An enabled option, it bases the IVA algorithm on
digital imaging technology that uses multi-level image
analysis of pixel, texture, and motion (trajectory)
changes.

Flexibility
The MIC IP PSU offers unparalleled recording
flexibility. Record on network-attached RAID iSCSI
storage devices or locally on a user-supplied SD or
SDHC card (32 GB maximum). The built-in iSCSI
support enables the MIC IP PSU to act as a
conventional DVR while streaming high-performance
live video across the network.
Dual Streaming and Dual H.264 Recording
The MIC IP PSU uses Dual Streaming to generate two
independent IP video streams per channel if sufficient
computational power is available. This allows viewing
and recording at two different quality levels to save
disk space and bandwidth. On alarm, they can send an
e‑mail with JPEG images attached. Video can be
recorded centrally on iSCSI drives managed by VRM
Video Recording Manager and redundantly on the local
media.
Recording Profiles
The MIC IP PSU features a highly flexible recording
scheduler, providing up to ten programmable
recording profiles and allowing individually assigned
camera profiles. With these profiles, you can
accelerate the frame rate as well as increase the
resolution on alarm, saving recording space during
non-alarm periods.
Access Security
The MIC IP PSU offers various security levels for
accessing the network, the unit, and the data
channels. As well as password protection with three
levels, it supports 802.1x authentication using a
RADIUS server for identification. You can secure Web
browser access by HTTPS using a SSL certificate that
is stored in the unit. For total data protection, each
communication channel—video, audio, or serial I/O—
can be independently AES encrypted with 128‑bit
keys, once the Encryption Site License has been
applied.
Viewing
View video on a PC using a Web browser, in the Bosch
Video Management System, or integrate it into another
video management system. By routing the IP video to a
high-performance VIP XD HD video decoder module,
you can present the video with ultimate clarity.
Bosch Video Client surveillance software
The bundled Bosch Video Client software, provided
free of charge, offers a user-friendly interface to
support easy installation, configuration, and operation
of up to 16 cameras. (A license upgrade, sold
separately, adds support for up to 64 cameras.) A
wizard allows the configuration of multiple cameras
simultaneously using an auto detection device.
Multiple cameras can be monitored in one screen and
video clips on the SD card can be archived and
searched in a single application.
ONVIF conformance
The MIC IP PSU conforms to the ONVIF (Open
Network Video Interface Forum) specification which
guarantees interoperability between network video
products regardless of manufacturer. ONVIF
conformant devices are able to exchange live video,
audio, metadata and control information. They are
automatically discovered and connected to network
applications such as video management systems.
Optional Fiber Optic Kit
Users can install the fiber optic media converter
module (sold separately) directly into the power
supply box to provide an integrated fiber optic
solution.
Easy Upgrade
Remotely upgrade the MIC IP PSU via IP whenever
new firmware becomes available. This ensures up-todate products, thus protecting investment with little
effort.
