FlexiDomeHD 720p Camera System Information | en 17
3 System Information
3.1 Overview of functions
The camera incorporates a network video server. Its primary
function is to encode video and control data for transmission
over an IP network. With its H.264 encoding, it is ideally suited
for IP communication and for remote access to digital video
recorders and IP systems. The use of existing networks means
that integration with CCTV systems or local networks can be
achieved quickly and easily. Video images from a single camera
can be simultaneously received on several receivers.
3.1.1 Progressive scan
The camera captures and processes progressively scanned
images. When there is fast motion in a scene, progressively
scanned images are generally sharper than interlaced images.
3.1.2 Day/Night function
The Day/Night function provides enhanced night viewing by
increasing the IR sensitivity. The motorized IR filter can be
removed in low-light or IR illuminated applications. The IR filter
switches from color to monochrome automatically by sensing
the illumination level. In auto switching mode the camera
prioritizes motion (the camera gives sharp images without
motion blur) or color (the camera gives color pictures as long as
the light level permits). For reliable Day/Night switching with an
external IR illuminator, synchronize the camera with the IR
illuminator using an alarm input port
3.1.3 Quad-streaming
Quad-streaming enables the camera to deliver three H.264
streams (a 720p HD stream, a downscaled resolution stream,
and a HD I-frame only stream) together with an M-JPEG stream.
These four streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and
recording options as well as integration with third-party video
management systems.
Bosch Security Systems Installation and Operation Manual AR18-10-B013 | v1.52 | 2010.12
18 en | System Information FlexiDomeHD 720p Camera
3.1.4 ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum)
The camera complies to the ONVIF standard which means that
it is easier to install and integrate into larger systems. The
ONVIF standard is a global standard for the interface of network
video products.
3.1.5 Audio
Two-way duplex audio is available in the unit for live voice
communications or audio recording.
3.1.6 Alarm I/O
The alarm input can be used to control the functionality of the
unit. An alarm output can control external devices.
3.1.7 Tamper detection and motion detectors
The camera offers a wide range of configuration options for
alarm signaling in the event of tampering with the camera. An
algorithm for detecting movement in the video image is also
included. Camera versons with enhanced hardware can be
optionally extended to include additional IVA features.
3.1.8 Video encoding
The camera uses the H.264 compression standards. Thanks to
efficient encoding, the data rate remains low even with high
image quality and can also be adapted to local conditions
within wide limits.
3.1.9 Multicast
In suitably configured networks, the multicast function enables
simultaneous, real time transmission to multiple receivers. The
prerequisite for this is that the UDP and IGMP V2/V3 protocols
are implemented on the network.
3.1.10 Power-over-Ethernet
Power for the camera can be supplied via a Power-overEthernet compliant network cable connection. With this
configuration, only a single cable connection is required to
view, power, and control the camera.

The unit offers a variety of options for protection against
unauthorized reading. Web browser connections can be
protected using HTTPS. Protect the control channels via the
SSL encryption protocol. With an additional license, the user
data itself can be encrypted.
3.1.12 Receiver
Computers with decoding software such as the Bosch Video
Client or the Bosch Video Management System, or computers
with the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser installed, can
be used as receivers.
3.1.13 Recording
The camera can be used with an iSCSI storage connected via
the network to store long-term recordings, and with a local
microSD card for shorter storage times and temporary
recordings.
3.1.14 Snapshots
Individual video frames (snapshots) can be called up as JPEG
images, stored on the hard drive, or displayed in a separate
browser window.
3.1.15 Backup
The browser application has an icon for saving the video images
provided by the unit as a file on your computer's hard drive.
Clicking this icon stores the video sequences and they can be
replayed with the Player from Bosch Security Systems included
with the package.

Network (and PoE) connection
1. Use a shielded twisted pair (STP) Category 5e cable,
maximum length 100 meters.
2. Use the RJ45 female-to-female network cable connector to
connect the network cable of the system to the RJ45
connector of the camera (Auto MDIX compliant).
Power is supplied to the camera via the Ethernet cable,
compliant with the Power-over-Ethernet standard.
Note:
The RJ45 female-to-female network cable connector supplied
with the camera is unshielded and is appropriate for all
applications that use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network
cable (most types). For applications that use shielded twisted
pair (STP) connection cable and need to meet the EMC Alarm
immunity standard (EN50130-4) or the EMC Railway imunity
standard (EN50121-4), a shielded RJ45 female-to-female
network cable connector (not supplied) shall be used.
Alarm Input
Use the alarm input to connect external alarm devices such as
door contacts or sensors. A zero potential make or break
contact can be used as the actuator (use a bounce-free contact
system).
– AWG 26-16 max.(0.13-1.5 mm
2
); cut back 5 mm (0.2 in) of
insulation.
– Impedence: Internal pull-up 10 kOhm to +5 VDC.
– Input voltage range: -5 VDC minimum to 40 VDC maximum.
– Input voltage treshold: low voltage 0.8 V maximum, high
voltage 2.4 V minimum.
– Refer to the cable tree table to identify the wire colors for
connecting the alarm input.
– Configurable as active low or active high.
