Digital video recorders in the new BLR Series: entry-level models at outstanding value for money

They not only look good, they can also do a lot: the entry-level models in the BLR Series deliver numerous features rarely found in this price class. Of course, the BLR Series recorders are no high-end models. But which applications really need ultimate perfection? Good value for money is far more significant in the majority of cases. And you are really on the safe side with the BLR Series.Choose from nine modelsChoose from models with four, eight or 16 channels each of which is available with different hard disk sizes of 500GB, 1.5TB or 2.5TB. Should the hard disk become full - which is not an easy thing to do with these large sizes - the data can simply be exported over the integral DVD writer or USB port on the front of the device. The maximum recording resolution is 704x576 pixels with a recording rate of 100fps at maximum resolution. A rate of 400fps is achieved for a lower resolution of 352x288 pixels. The efficient H.264 compression method ensures that bandwidth requirements are low for network data transmission.Selectable for each channel: the recording modeUp to 16 channels can be simultaneously recorded and played back. Recording can be permanent, triggered by an alarm or when motion is detected as well as time controlled. The recording mode can be specified separately for each channel so the ideal method can be selected for each connected camera according to the monitored area.Multitasking thanks to quadplexVideo imagery is displayed on the monitor at 25 frames per second, in real time of course. Depending on your multitasking capability, several actions can be executed simultaneously because the recorders are quadplex devices.Apps for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android and NokiaWhat more can the BLR Series offer? Four alarm inputs, one alarm output for instance, automatic e-mail dispatch in an alarm event or PTZ control over the RS-485 interface as well as pre- and post-alarm recording. And the right apps for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android and Nokia are available for access by smartphone.

Dedicated Micros reports record ASIS driven by spotlight on Closed IPTV
Dedicated Micros reports record ASIS driven by spotlight on Closed IPTV

CCTV specialist Dedicated Micros, Inc. - part of AD Group - announces that the recent ASIS show in Dallas, Texas, was its most successful to date both in terms of visitors and, in particular, the quality of leads it generated, with the number of qualified sales inquires growing by 10%. The star of ASIS from Dedicated Micros' point of view was undoubtedly its Closed IPTV deterministic IP video product solution which was very much the focal point of its booth and, crucially, received a prestigious ASIS Accolades Award. Taking its cue from the simplicity and security of a traditional CCTV installation, Patent-Pending, Closed IPTV uses a completely deterministic set-up which automatically maps the IP camera to the port on DM's Layer 3 Enhanced CCTV Switch and in turn, the corresponding camera input number on the hybrid DVR/NVR. This approach, combined with DM's unique implementation of secure modes means that when it comes to IP video, complete security of the IP endpoints can be achieved with a single click preventing hacking attacks. Dedicated Micros is currently rolling out Closed IPTV in a number of product lines with one of the first being a version of the hybrid SD Advanced DVR/NVR. Said Mike Newton, the newly appointed President of Dedicated Micros, Inc. and founder of Dedicated Micros and its parent company AD Group: "We were delighted with how ASIS 2010 went for us with the level of qualified leads up year-on-year. This was very much a landmark show for the business in a number of respects. We were able to promote our Closed IPTV capability for the first time, which was recognized with a prestigious ASIS Accolades award for its implementation in our SD Advanced, and introduce our customers to the new executive team at Dedicated Micros, Inc. which I am now heading up." "Undoubtedly, Closed IPTV was a big draw and those who saw the on-booth demonstration seemed to be impressed with its ability to enhance the practicality and security of IP video solutions. It is an appealing proposition both to security professionals and end users who may have previously shied away from taking this route and also to experienced integrators looking to deploy segregated HD IP video networks. From the interest generated we anticipate being able to announce significant orders for this solution in the very near future and at a broader level this, upsurge in business, is an important marker that confidence is returning to the wider economy." For more information of Dedicated Micros please log on to www.dedicatedmicros.com.   See the image with captions
