Overview of functions
High Definition video decoder
VIDEOJET decoder 7000
from cameras and encoders using H.264 or MPEG‑4 encoding at up to 30 images per second
over IP networks.
It can flawlessly decode four 1080p30 streams, or four H.264 720p60 streams, or six H.264
720p30 streams, all at 10 Mbps. Alternatively, it can simultaneously decode twelve H.264 SD
streams at up to 6 Mbps from fast-moving AUTODOME cameras with the highest clarity. When
H.264 SD streams at up to 2.5 Mbps from medium activity scenes are connected, up to 20
streams can be displayed.
VIDEOJET decoder 7000 can drive two HD displays directly, each with an independently
configurable screen layout, and so is ideally suited for applications with flat-screen monitor
walls at a moderate cost-per-monitor.
Compact in size in relation to its decoding power, VIDEOJET decoder 7000 is perfect for any
display application that requires space-saving solutions.
Remote control
Control the viewing mode remotely and establish the video connections using comprehensive
Bosch video management systems.
Operating system
VIDEOJET decoder 7000 is based on the latest Intel H77 Express Chipset on a Mini-ITX board
with a Core i3 CPU running at 3.1 GHz. The system has a 16 GB Flash module as boot medium
for operating system and application. It uses a Gigabyte Ethernet port.
The system runs a tailored and Bosch-branded Microsoft Windows 7 Embedded operating
system, and Monitor Wall software based on HD-capable VideoSDK 5, both fine-tuned for HD
video decoding support.
VIDEOJET decoder 7000 provides three monitor outputs, DVI‑I, HDMI, and DP; two of these
can be used at the same time.
High performance
Transmit HD IP video to a high-performance VIDEOJET decoder 7000 and present it with
ultimate clarity on large, flat-screen HD monitors, for example, high-performance 32” or 55”
Bosch HD LCD monitors.
Bosch Security Systems if you find any damage.
displays High Definition (HD) and Standard Definition (SD) video
VIDEOJET decoder 7000 is capable of flawlessly decoding four full HD 1080p30 streams or
four 720p60 streams or six 720p30 streams, for example, displayed in one of the pre-defined
and on-the-fly switchable layouts. It can handle up to twelve SD streams at up to 6 Mbps with
full resolution and frame rate, and display it in e.g. 1+5 views on both 16:9 monitors.
At a lower resolution, bit rate, or frame rate, the decoder is capable of displaying up to 60
video streams, arranged in various selectable screen layouts.
Layouts can be switched at any time during operation, initiated by the controlling video
management system. Layout switching can be based on alarm scenarios.
VIDEOJET decoder 7000 supports landscape and portrait video and monitors. Layouts will
adapt automatically to optimally utilize the available screen space.
Access security
The decoders offer various security levels for accessing the network, the unit, and the data
channels. System access is password-protected with two levels.
For total data protection, the decoder supports SSL where each video communication channel
is independently encrypted with up to 256‑bit keys.
Malware resistance
VIDEOJET decoder 7000 has been designed to be resistant to viruses and other malware. To
prevent security holes, the installed Bosch software limits transactions to operation and
maintenance and the embedded operating system is tailored to the needs. No other than
Microsoft and Bosch software is running on the decoder. Its firewall performs at the highest
security level and allows communication only for a minimum of needed services. All access is
password-protected, USB and other storage devices are disabled, and update files are
authenticated and encrypted, thus putting robustness against malicious software to the
highest degree.
Easy upgrade
Remotely upgrade the decoder whenever new firmware or software becomes available. This
ensures up-to-date products, thus protecting investment with little effort.
