Hanwha Techwin America respond positively to worldwide 1TB HDD shortage

Samsung has taken positive action in response to the worldwide shortage of 1TB HDDs by introducing new models to its H.264 SRD series of DVRs. "The immediate availability of these new models will ensure continuity of supply to our customers during a time when all market sectors, and not just the security industry, are affected by the severe shortage of 1TB HDDs," said Peter Ainsworth, Senior Product Manager for Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd. "A new 500GB storage version, which shares the same features as the other DVRs in the SRD series, offers an easily upgradable and cost-effective solution for those looking for the best quality digital video recording." Samsung has also introduced models which are being supplied without HDDs to give customers the flexibility to purchase additional approved HDDs by way of one of its HDD upgrade kits, which can be easily installed on-site without voiding the warranty of the DVR. These are available as 500GB upgrades and there are currently limited stocks of 1TB or 2TB upgrade kits also available.The eight and sixteen channel models all have built-in DVD drives featuring Virtual Progressive Scan (VPS) which eliminates the problem of blurred edges on moving objects, to provide picture-perfect still frames whilst a built-in web-server allows live and playback viewing options with the ability to back up incidents via a web browser. A dual codec operation delivers different streams for both high performance recording and optimised transmission, and selected models offer both Pelco Coaxitron and Samsung SSVC coaxial control protocols to provide users with full control of camera functions, as well as access to set-up menus from the convenience of a control room.Additional installer and operator friendly features include a multiple language on-screen display and a fully removable back panel so that hard drives can be swapped and upgraded without having to unplug all the cables.  Data from ATM, POS or access control devices can be captured with the text data saved along with associated images to be played back if required at a later date.Available from all Samsung distributors, the new DVRs are offered with full support services from Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd, including free system design, free technical support and a full three-year warranty.

Hanwha Techwin America’s new four-channel H.264 DVR provides users with multiple remote viewing options

The SRD-440 is fully compatible with the free Samsung iPOLiS MOBILE app which can be downloaded from iTunes and the Android market. It supersedes the SRD-450 and is likely to be equally popular with installers who are looking to recommend an economically priced recording solution for small retail and office environments, and particularly so where the user wishes to keep a watchful eye on their premises out of business hours. “Although priced as an entry-level DVR, the SRD-440 certainly does not compromise on quality,” said Peter Ainsworth, Senior Product Manager for Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd. “It is equipped with a range of impressive features including the ability to record high quality CIF video in real time across all channels, as well as single channel audio recording, whilst there is the option to record up to 4-CIF over selected channels.” The SRD-440 also provides users with the option to remotely view live or recorded video over the Internet via a browser and is supported by Samsung’s license free NET-i Viewer software which enables the centralised monitoring, control and administration of Samsung DVRs and iPOLiS network devices, even when the client has multiple sites and is using a mix of analogue and IP equipment. The utilisation of ‘network-friendly’ H.264 compression ensures the SRD-440 makes the most of available bandwidth whilst also maximising the amount of video, which can be stored on the SRD-440’s 500GB internal hard disk drive. A built-in USB slot provides a quick and easy way to extract recorded video of any important incidents. A 22 language graphical user interface has been designed to make it easy for users with minimal training to configure and control the SRD-440 and when needed, to take advantage of the wide range of search and playback options. Available from all Samsung distributors, the SRD-440 is offered with full support services from Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd., including free system design, free technical support and a full three-year warranty.

The Samsung SRD-442 DVR is designed to provide an economic and space saving recording solution for retail, office and residential type environments. The compact SRD-442 is a four channel DVR with a built-in 4.3” touch-screen LCD monitor for convenient viewing of live or recorded video. It can record at CIF resolution in real time across all its four channels and in the event of an alarm, selected channels can switch to 4CIF resolution recording. If required, the SRD-442 can output video to an external monitor but the built in 4.3” LCD touch-screen, which is a similar size to a Galaxy S SmartPhone, is big enough to discretely monitor any suspicious activity, as well as navigate through the DVR’s 22 language on-screen menu. “Although the SRD-442 is attractively priced, we have not compromised on quality and this DVR is packed  full of useful and technically advanced features,” said Peter Ainsworth, Senior Product Manager for Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd. “For example, it utilises H.264 compression to maximise the amount of video which can be stored on one of its internal SATA HDDs and users can remotely view live images, or retrieve previously recorded video, via a smartphone using the free Samsung iPOLiS mobile app. The SRD-442 also has the ability to provide RS-485 control of PTZ domes using various protocols, including Panasonic and Pelco D&P”. The SRD-442, which measures just 215mm x 88mm x 350mm, offers the option to record audio on any one of its four channels and has two USB ports for back-up and the export of video evidence.  The SRD-442 is part of the Samsung SRD series which comprises over 20 different models and collectively offers the choice of four, eight or sixteen channel versions, all of which utilise bandwidth-friendly H.264 compression. All models share the same intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) menu structure which makes it easy for operators to set up each channel to record at different frame rates or resolutions and are supported by Samsung’s remote viewing NET-I Viewer software. As is the case with all Samsung professional security products, the SRD-442 is supplied with full support services from Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd, including free system design, free technical support and a full three-year warranty.
