SNC-EB640

Box-type Full HD IP Network Camera – E Series

Overview

Excellent image quality made affordable with this versatile Full HD network camera that’s ideal for everyday security applications.

This versatile, easy to install fixed network camera brings Full HD imaging quality to a wide range of indoor security and surveillance applications, from offices, banks and retail spaces to schools and colleges.

The SNC-EB640 captures crisp, low-noise Full HD images, even in challenging low-light conditions like dimly-lit car parks. The sensitive 1/2.8” type Exmor R CMOS image sensor is teamed with XDNR processing, improving low-light performance and achieving the minimum illumination of 0.006 lux(30 IRE) in color mode.

View-DR expands dynamic range for significantly improved imaging in high-contrast and strongly backlit scenes, like sun-drenched offices or car park entrances. Image stabilization keeps video images crisp and clear, even when the camera is subject to vibration on a mounting pole or bracket.

The addition of SD card edge storage allows video/audio data to be recorded directly by the camera when triggered by an alarm event. This provides valuable redundancy in the event of temporary network failure: recording to the network server resumes automatically when normal network connection is restored.

Installation of the SNC-EB640 is simplified by the same familiar user interface, usability and form factor as previous-generation Sony E Series cameras.

Features

  • See every scene clearly with Full HD image quality

    View fine detail in a wide range of everyday video security and surveillance environments, from retail spaces to banks and schools. The sensitive 1/2.8” type Exmor R CMOS image sensor is teamed with XDNR processing, improving low-light performance and achieving the minimum illumination of 0.006 lux(30 IRE) in color mode.

  • Steadier, more stable video footage

    The in-built image stabilizer minimizes the effects of camera shake – for example when the camera’s pole mounted or subject to mechanical vibration. With clearer, more stable video images it’s easier to see what’s happening in any scene.

  • Don’t miss that crucial moment with Intelligent Motion Detection and Face Detection

    In-built motion detection can trigger a range of actions, from storage and transfer of images to sounding of external alarms. False alarms caused by noise, weather and environment noise are minimized by a smart processing algorithm. Human face detection is also supported, allowing rapid indexing of recordings to find events where a face is visible in the scene.

  • Better pictures, day or night

    True D/N (Day/Night) function automatically switches the camera to Day or Night mode, depending on ambient light levels.

  • Optimum picture quality in any situation

    A choice of selectable picture modes optimizes camera settings for best picture quality in a wide range of applications and lighting environments.

  • Recording quality to suit your network

    Select CBR (constant bitrate), VBR (variable bitrate) or VBR-with-cap compression modes for optimized recording quality depending on IP network conditions.

  • Edge recording on SD card for reliable operation

    SD card edge storage allows video/audio data to be recorded directly by the camera when triggered by an alarm event. This provides valuable redundancy in the event of temporary network failure: recording to the network server resumes automatically when normal network connection is restored.

  • Detect in confidence with Edge-based Analytics

    Powerful DEPA Advanced video analytics enhances Intelligent Motion Detection with rule-based alarm triggers, providing alerts with object filters like ‘passing’ and ‘intrusion’ to further reduce false alarms.

  • Reduce cabling costs with Power Over Ethernet (PoE)

    Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows the camera be powered by the same Ethernet cable that’s used for data transfer, reducing installation complexity and costs.

  • View and control with your smartphone

    Remotely view live camera images with your Android or iOS smartphone or tablet. You don’t even need to download a special app.

  • ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) compliance

    Support for ONVIF simplifies interoperability with other network video devices. The ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) defines a common protocol for the exchange of information between network video devices, including automatic device discovery and video streaming.

  • Triple streaming for extra operational versatility

    Configure up to three simultaneous IP video streams to suit your operating needs. For example, one stream for high quality live viewing; another for storage-efficient recording; and a third for viewing over a low bandwidth connection or on mobile devices.
