Samsung unveils SUB box and SUD dome cameras

13 Mar 10

The SUB-2000 box camera is a colour/monochrome camera while the two domes are true day/night cameras with a removable infrared cut filter. 600 TV lines resolution ensures that the three cameras generate high quality colour images at lighting levels as low as 0.05 lux sensitivity, while a 512x Sens-up capability provides for clear, sharp colour images to be captured at lighting levels far below those which other cameras would switch to a monochrome image.

Samsung has also introduced the SPU-400T UTP transmitter, the SPU-400R UTP receiver and a device called the SPU-100TR which balances differentials in signal input to ensure compatibility of the UTP cameras with existing coaxial equipment.

Peter Ainsworth, the European product manager for Samsung’s professional security division, has explained the reason why Samsung has introduced the new UTP range:

“Increasingly, architects are specifying that UTP cabling should be installed as part of their clients’ network infrastructure," said Ainsworth. "Using this infrastructure for surveillance purposes will ensure that clients get the best value out of this investment in cabling as the transmission of video and data, as well as the provision of power, can be achieved from a single UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable.”

Built-in W-5 DSP chipset

All three of the cameras incorporate Samsung’s W-5 DSP chipset, and are equipped with a long list of features (including a BNC coaxial output for local set up or monitoring, eight motion detection zones, 12 privacy masking zones and a 14-language on-screen display menu.

Samsung Super Dynamic Range (SSDR), Samsung’s dynamic backlight compensation technology, automatically lightens the dark areas within a scene while maintaining the brighter areas at the same level. This ensures that the dark areas become more visible, allowing the operator to ‘view’ objects in the shadows.

The three cameras also benefit from DIS (Digital Image Stabilisation) which compensates for camera shake in strong winds, as well as Samsung Super Noise Reduction (SSNRIII) technology.

Available from all Samsung distributors, models in the new UTP camera range are offered with free system design, free technical support and a full three-year warranty.
