1. Product Features
The GANZ PixelPro Series (ZN-MD2xxM) is a high performance H.264 network
camera, designed for demanding security installations. It delivers crisp, clear images,
disclosing every detail, thanks to its top quality Megapixel progressive CMOS sensor
and advanced image processing.
Supported by the industry’s largest base of video management software, the GANZ
PixelPro provides the perfect solution for securing bank offices, airports and other
facilities, and for traffic surveillance, over IP based networks.
The optimal Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) support power to the camera to be
delivered via the network, eliminating the need for a power outlet and reducing
installation costs. Steady power could be guaranteed with a central Uninterruptible
Power Supply (UPS).
The GANZ PixelPro offers a comprehensive set of network security and
management features. This includes support for port based network control
(IEEE802.1X), which allows the camera to be connected to a network secured with
this control, and HTTPS encryption, which provides a secure channel between
camera and application. It also enables authentication of the video source. Video
products are efficiently managed with the powerful GANZ PixelPro Camera
Management tool, which is provided on the Installation CD which comes with each
GANZ PixelPro camera.

8. Network (RJ-45 PoE required)
The ZN-MD2xxM series connects to the network via a standard network cable,
and automatically detects the speed of the local network segment
(10BaseT/100BaseTX Ethernet). This socket must be used to power the
ZN-MD2XX SERIES via Power over Ethernet (PoE). The camera auto-senses
the correct power level when using a PoE switch, router or injector.

3.5 Video stream types
H.264 protocols and communication methods
• RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is a protocol that allows programs to manage
the real-time transmission of multimedia data, via unicast or multicast.
• RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) serves as a control protocol, to negotiate the
type of transport protocol to use for the stream. RTSP is used by a viewing client to
start a unicast session.
• UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a communications protocol that offers limited
service for exchanging data in a network which uses the Internet Protocol (IP).
UDP is an alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The advantage of
UDP is that, it is not required to deliver all data and may drop network packets when
there is network congestion. This is suitable for live video, as there is no point in retransmitting old information that will not be displayed anyway.
• Unicasting is communication between a single sender and a single receiver over a
network. This means that the video stream goes independently to each user, and
each user gets own stream. A benefit of unicasting is, in case one stream fails, it
only affects one user.
• Multicasting(Will be supported)is bandwidth-conserving technology that reduces
bandwidth usage by simultaneously delivering a single stream of information to
multiple network recipients. This technology is used primarily on delimited networks
(intranets), as each user needs an uninterrupted data flow and should not rely on
network routers.
2.6 How to stream H.264
Deciding on the combination of protocols and methods to use depends on your
viewing requirements, and on the properties of your network. Setting the preferred
method(s) is done in webpage.
RTP+RTSP
This method (actually RTP over UDP and RTSP over TCP) should be your first
consideration for live video, especially when it is important to always have an up-todate video stream, even if some images are lost due to network problems. This could
be configured as multicast or unicast.
RTP/RTSP/Multicasting (Will be supported) provides the most efficient usage of
bandwidth, especially when there are large numbers of clients viewing
simultaneously. Note however, that a multicast broadcast could not pass a network
router unless the router is configured to allow this. For example, It is impossible to
multicast over the Internet.
PixelPro Series User’s Manual

11
RTP/RTSP/Unicasting should be used for video-on-demand broadcasting, so that
there is no video traffic on the network until a client connects and requests the
stream. However, as more and more unicast clients get connected, the traffic on the
network will increase and may cause congestion. Although there is a maximum of 10
unicast viewers, note that all multicast users combined count as 1 unicast viewer.
RTP/RTSP
This unicast method is RTP tunneled over RTSP. This could be used to exploit the
fact that it is relatively simple to configure firewalls to allow RTSP traffic.
4. The Setup
The GANZ PixelPro is configured from the Setup link, which is available on the top
left hand side in the web interface. This configuration could be done by:
• Administrators, who have unrestricted access to all settings under the Setup tab.
Accessing the Setup link from a browser
1. Start your web browser and enter the IP address or host name of the camera into
the address bar.
2. The Live View page is now displayed. Click on the Setup tap.
