HD CCTV

SVT is at the forefront of HD CCTV (High Definition Closed Circuit Television). Based on technology from Sony Motion Pictures, HD CCTV was originally designed for use in broadcasting HD television programs. HD CCTV cameras bring a sharp, clear picture quality associated with high definition to a more practical everyday use. HD CCTV is an open industrial standard for transmitting uncompressed high-definition digital video over point-to-point coaxial cable links for video surveillance applications.

HD CCTV has huge advantages over IP video surveillance. SVT has tested HD CCTV technology in the toughest conditions and it passed with flying colors from casinos, prisons, hotels, homeland security and city surveillance. For example, HD CCTV cameras are capable of delivering 720p and 1080p video at a full 30 frames per second with no latency or use of compression over RG59 cable.  HD CCTV is a point-to-point system that uses coax cable rather than Category-5e or -6. Therefore, the video feed is sent directly from the camera to the recording device or DVR without the use of packets, compression, encoders or an existing network. There is no need to configure or program each device or deal with IP addresses. You just plug it in and it works!  Also, HD CCTV delivers a megapixel quality video without requiring IT network bandwidth, dropping packets, or reduced resolution from compression. There is no latency.  The video runs smoothly without any jitteriness or skipping and there is no delay between when commands are sent to a Point-Tilt-Zoom camera and when the camera responds.
