Todd Rockoff, executive director of the HDcctv Alliance, said: “By adding a suite of HDcctv-compliant products to its already extensive portfolio of core equipment for video control rooms, megapixel, IP and analogue surveillance cameras, specialized cameras, fiber optic communications products and customized systems, Infinova continues to generate new tools and solutions which will help Infinova integrators provide more choices to their end-user customers.”
Mark S. Wilson, Infinova vice president of marketing, said: “Providing all surveillance camera technologies, Infinova integrators can offer more solutions to their customers, assuring that they choose the right video technology for each and every application.
“Our integrators will not be handcuffed by selecting their camera technology from the limited family that many manufacturers represent. If their customer asks for HDcctv, they can say, ‘Yes.'”
The HDcctv Alliance says: “The HDcctv comprehensive global interface standard derives from a set of standards, including SMPTE-292M, developed by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers for application in broadcast television studios.
“Uncompressed, it is fully digital, delivering 720 and 1080 video and full frame rate HDTV. HDcctv works with existing coax without an adapter.
“Although the commissioned cost per video channel is more than standard CCTV, it is lower than that of megapixel IP cameras.
“Lastly, it delivers greater than 2 megapixel video without compressing the data.”
