Sony introduces a new addition to its Network Camera Lineup, the SNC-CS50.
This color IP network camera is ideal for applications ranging from surveillance to
remote monitoring in areas such as shopping malls, airports, warehouses and more.

The SNC-CS50 incorporates a highly sensitive 1/3-type CCD with SuperExwave

TM

technology for superb picture quality and high sensitivity with a minimum
illumination of 0.4 lx at F 0.95, 50 IRE. This camera comes equipped with an auto
iris, high-performance vari-focal lens and features a CS mount that offers users the
flexibility to replace the existing lens with a different lens to match the application
requirements.

This camera also offers a variety of key features for surveillance and remote
monitoring, such as a Day/Night function to provide clear monitoring images even
in low light conditions, Advanced Video Motion Detection, and Unattended Object
Detection.

Using advanced image processing technology, the SNC-CS50 provides three
compression formats: JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264

allowing users to choose the
appropriate compression format to match the network environment and monitoring
applications. A high-frame rate of 30 fps when the image size is VGA (640 x 480)
for JPEG and MPEG-4 can be achieved, providing clear and smooth moving images
while monitoring. Also, because the SNC-CS50 employs a newly developed “Dual
Encoding Capability,” JPEG and MPEG-4 images can be streamed simultaneously,
further expanding monitoring applications possibilities.

This feature rich, intelligent, high-performance camera can take your surveillance
and remote monitoring applications to the next level. Choose the SNC-CS50 to
meet your IP monitoring needs.

FEATURES

High-Quality Images

Employing the latest 1/3-type CCD with
SuperExwave technology, the SNC-CS50
delivers exceptional picture quality for your
remote monitoring applications. Also, because
the minimum illumination level is 0.4 lx at F 0.95
in color, the camera operates extremely well
even in low-light conditions.

Selectable JPEG, MPEG-4,
H.264*3Compression Formats

The SNC-CS50 supports three compression
formats, JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264. MPEG-4
provides clear moving images efficiently over
networks even with limited network bandwidth.
For higher compression, when bandwidth is even
more limited, H.264, which achieves two times
more compression than MPEG-4, is available. If
high quality still images are preferred, then the
industry standard JPEG compression format can
be untilized. The image size can be selected
from three modes to meet your network
environment and application requirements.

H.264 compressed video cannot be viewed using a

upgrade in the future.

High Frame Rate

The SNC-CS50 supports a maximum frame rate
of 30fps when the image size is VGA (640 x

480) in both MPEG-4 and JPEG modes,
producing clear and smooth-moving images.
The frame rate can also be set to a variable rate
that automatically adjusts to the available
bandwidth according to the system requirements.

Slim and Stylish Design With Front
and Rear Covers

The SNC-CS50 comes equipped with a stylish
front lens cover and a convenient rear panel
cover for cable management, the camera is less
likely to detract from the natural décor of the
room in which it is installed.

Dual Encoding Capability (Fig. 1)

The SNC-CS50 is equipped with a dual encoding
capability that enables the camera to generate
both MPEG-4 and JPEG images simultaneously.
For example, you can set up your system to
transfer MPEG-4 images over a WAN or an
Internet VPN, where network bandwidth is
limited, while storing high-resolution JPEG images
on a local storage device configured on the LAN.
