Sarix Enhanced (E) range cameras feature SureVision technology, delivering up to 8 MP high definition (HD) resolution (2 MP, 3 MP, 5 MP, and 8 MP options are available) consistent color science, fast processing power, and simultaneous advanced low-light performance with wide dynamic range (WDR) and anti-bloom technologies. New advancements include 3D noise filtering, smooth response to illumination changes, and improved tone mapping to retain color accuracy and overall image contrast. With ElectronicImage Stabilization enabled by built-in Gyro technology, Sarix Enhanced cameras always provide sharp, stable images even during vibration/wind environment. Power redundancy between PoE and 12 VDC/24 VAC ensures 24-hour, 365- day continuous operation even under unstable power supply situations
The IXE Series Box Camera
Within the Sarix Enhanced Range, the IXE Series Box Cameras are compatible with a choice of standard iCS (Intelligent CS-mount) Megapixel Lenses for wide angle or long range surveillance needs. Equipped with motors, iCS lenses enable auto and remote control zoom, focus, and iris for IXE Series Box Cameras. This not only allows for quick and easy installation, but also optimization of the image quality. A System Watchdog feature automatically restarts the camera if a malfunction is detected.
Video
The IXE Seriessupportsthree independently-configurable video streams. The three streams can be compressed with efficient H.265, H.264 High or Main profiles, or MJPEG formats. The streams can be configured to a variety of frame rates, variable bit rates, and group of pictures (GOP) structures to optimize image quality with bandwidth and storage efficiency. In addition, streams can be encoded as constrained variable bit rate (CVBR) or constant bit rate (CBR). Pelco Smart Compression is available on both H.264 and H.265, optimizing between bandwidth and image quality and can reduce storage by up to 70% depending on the scene.
Open and Integrated
Sarix Enhanced range cameras seamlessly connect to Pelco video management systems such as VideoXpert, VxToobox, Endura version 2.0 (or later), and Digital Sentry version 7.3 (or later). Sarix Enhanced range camerasintegratewith major third-partyvideo managementsystemsthrough the Pelco API, and other third-party software and systems through the ONVIF Profile S, G, and T standards.
POWER REDUNDANCY
Sarix Enhanced range cameras are designed with Power over Ethernet (PoE), 24 VAC and 12 VDC to reduce costs and simplify planning, wiring, and installation. PoE functionality works with PoEenabled network switches or power injectors, eliminating the need for separate power supplies and cabling, and increasing camera fail safety through an uninterruptable power supply (UPS). The cameras also support powersupply failover between PoE and 12 VDC/24 VAC. If the camera is running with both PoE power and 12 VDC/24 VAC powersupplied, and then PoE power is lost, the camera will switch to 12 VDC/24 VAC without any interruption or video loss. Once PoE power is restored, the camera will reboot and then run using PoE power.
PELCO ENHANCED ANALYTICS SUITE
Sarix Enhanced range cameras includes two Basic and seven Enhanced user-configurable behaviors to enhance the flexibility and performance of the camera. The camera is capable of running up to two Enhanced behaviorsin addition to the two Basic behaviors at the same time. For each behavior,you can set up differentscenariosfor the behavior, which will automatically detect and trigger alarms when specific activity is detected. Analytics are configured and enabled using a standard Web browser, and behavior alarms are compatible with VideoXpert or a third-party system that supports Pelco’s API.
Available behaviors include:
- Camera Sabotage: Detects contrast changes in the field of view. An alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed by spray paint, a cloth, or a lens cap. Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also triggers an alarm. - Region-Based Simple Motion Detection: Based on sensitivity, the camera determines if sufficient motion is detected within a configurable region. - Abandoned Object: Detects objects placed within a defined zone and triggers an alarm if the object remains in the zone unattended. An airport terminal is a typical installation for this behavior. This behavior can also detect objects left behind at an ATM, signaling possible card skimming. - Intrusion Detection: Detects and tracks objects that enter a scene and then triggers an alarm when the objects enter a user-defined zone. This behavior is primarily used in outdoor environments with light traffic to reduce the number of false alarms caused by environmental changes. - Camera Sabotage: Detects contrast changes in the field of view. An alarm is triggered if the lens is obstructed by spray paint, a cloth, or a lens cap. Any unauthorized repositioning of the camera also triggers an alarm. - Wrong Direction: Generates an alarm in a high traffic area when a person or object moves in a specified direction. Typical installations for this behavior include an airport gate or tunnel where cameras can detect objects moving in the opposite direction of the normal flow of traffic or an individual entering through an exit door. - Loitering Detection: Identifies when people or vehicles remain in a defined zone too long. This behavior is effective in real-time notification of suspicious behavior around ATMs, stairwells, and school grounds. - Object Counting: Counts the number of objects that cross a defined line. This behavior can be used to count the number of people at a store entrance/exit or inside a store where the traffic is light. This behavior is based on tracking and does not count people in a crowded setting - Object Removal: Triggers an alarm if an object is removed from a user-defined zone. This behavior is ideal for customers who want to detect the removal of high value objects, such as a painting from a wall or a statue from a pedestal. - Stopped Vehicle: Detects vehiclesstopped near a sensitive area longer than the user-defined time allows. This behavior is ideal for airport curbside drop-offs, parking enforcement, suspicious parking, traffic lane breakdowns, and vehicles waiting at gates.
PELCO’S SMART COMPRESSION TECHNOLOGY
Pelco’s Smart Compression Technology lowers bandwidth and storage requirements by up to 70%. Our technology allows the user to make intelligent decisions regarding storage savings and image quality. Pelco’s Smart Compression Technology dynamically analyzes motion occurring within live video in real-time, to intelligently compress the information you don’t need, while retaining details with clear quality in the areas that are important in the scene. By enabling Dynamic GOP, an added feature of Smart Compression, the number of I-frames are automatically reduced in scenes with low motion. Based on the complexity of scenes and motion occurring, such as a store room that has limited entry and exit, up to 70% bandwidth savings can be achieved.
