SNC-RX Series/SNC-RZ50/SNC-CS50

The SNC-RX Series, SNC-RZ50, and SNC-CS50 third-generation Network Cameras are
the latest in a series of Sony network cameras that support “Intelligent Video
Analytics.”

*1

This efficient and intelligent processing method can provide greater

operational efficiency and a high level of security.

These cameras incorporate advanced compression technologies to transmit image data
in three different formats: JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264. Users can choose any of these
compression formats to match their system’s network environment and application
requirements. What’s more, these third-generation cameras can simultaneously stream
JPEG and MPEG-4 data for even greater operational flexibility.

These latest Sony cameras employ robust detection methods - Intelligent Motion
Detection (IMD) and Intelligent Object Detection (IOD) to maximize the efficiency of the
monitoring system. Object ‘tags’ (or IDs) and associated position data are created
within the cameras. This data – also called metadata – can be streamed independently
or along with video over a network to work in conjunction with rules or filters (such as
virtual borderlines) defined in application software to perform actions such as initiating
alarms or beginning to record. This rules-based processing can minimize server workload,
network bandwidth, and storage requirements. In addition, a number of other convenient
features have been incorporated into these cameras to meet your needs such as, a
Day/Night function, Voice Alert, Privacy Zone Masking, and wireless capability.

With their built-in intelligence and rich features, the Sony multi-codec cameras are ideal
for a wide variety of surveillance and monitoring applications.

Intelligent video analytics is available when these cameras are used in conjunction with the Sony
Network Recorders the NSR Series Ver. 4.0 or higher, the Sony Intelligent Monitoring Software
IMZ-RS400 Series Ver. 4.0 or higher, or third party hardware and software designed to operate with
these cameras to perform video analytics.

FEATURES

The DEPA Platform – Intelligent
Video Analytics

The DEPA solution is a combined function of the
camera intelligence incorporated in the SNC-RX Series,
SNC-RZ50, and SNC-CS50 and the rules or filters on
the recorder or software to determine what is to be
recorded or when to trigger an alarm. When the
network cameras perform IMD or IOD, ‘tagged’
objects and their associated metadata, including
object position data, are sent to the NSR Series or the
IMZ-RS400 Series. These products then use the
metadata, together with filters, to analyze any object
movement. This method of distributed processing
minimizes the server workload, network bandwidth,
and storage requirements.

Distributed Enhanced Processing Architecture (DEPA)

SNC-RX Series

The SNC-RX Series has a high-speed 360° endless panning
(or rotation) capability, which allows users to precisely
capture almost any object surrounding the camera.
In addition, by employing a 1/4-type Exwave HAD

TM

CCD, the
camera delivers exceptional picture quality for any remote
monitoring application, even in low-light conditions.

SNC-RZ50

The SNC-RZ50 is a compact PTZ network camera that
allows users to monitor a wide viewing area thanks to pan
and tilt ranges of 340° and 115°, respectively. The camera
also has an image-flip function for desktop use and supports
the Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) for use over the
Internet – making it ideal for a number of different
monitoring applications.

SNC-CS50

The SNC-CS50 is a fixed-type network camera that
incorporates the latest 1/3-type CCD with SuperExwave

TM

Technology. The minimum illumination is 0.4 lx in color and

0.04 lx in black and white (B/W), providing high-contrast
images even in low-light conditions. The camera also comes
equipped with a vari-focal zoom lens that covers a wide range
of horizontal viewing angles (35° to 94°).
