PART 2 – PRODUCTS
2.01 CCTV/NETWORK VIDEO ENCODER SPECIFICATIONS
A. GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS:
1. The SNT-EX154 shall be a network enabled, 4-channel, JPEG/MPEG4/H.264 encoder, which accepts NTSC/PAL video input signals.
2. The SNT-EX154 shall be designed for the rack station (SNT-RS1/3U),
which is available from the encoder manufacturer.
3. The SNT-EX154 shall have a Visibility Enhancer (VE) function, which
optimizes the brightness and color reproduction of an image
dynamically on a pixel-by-pixel basis to provide better visibility in poor
backlight conditions.
4. The SNT-EX154 shall have a feature called XDNR (eXcellent Dynamic
Noise Reduction), which reduces AGC noise to provide clear images
without motion blur. XDNR also reduces image data size.
5. XDNR and VE can be used in conjunction with each other and shall
provide approximately 4 times the sensitivity compared to the condition
where both features are set to off.
6. The SNT-EX154 shall incorporate the Dynamic Frame Integration
feature which allows the encoder to dynamically assign field integration
on moving objects only within the image, to prevent blurring or
deinterlace artifacts on the captured image, while maintaining frame
integration on the rest of the scene.
7. The SNT-EX154 shall have a Smartphone viewer, which can display
the camera image and operate Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) on the
smartphone.
8. The network interface shall be via an 8-pin RJ-45 connector, 10BaseT/100Base-TX Ethernet. Both IPv6 and IPv4 are supported.
9. The SNT-EX154 shall utilize JPEG, MPEG4 or H.264 compression,
independently selectable for each video input.
10. JPEG compression levels shall be user selectable in 10 levels, based
on an image of 24 bits per picture element (8 bits each for YUV).
11. Constant bit rate algorithm for JPEG data:

have stable bandwidth utilization. Data size for each compression level
is as follows:
12. The SNT-EX154 shall be capable of producing 30 fps (NTSC) and 25
fps (PAL) per input channel at D1 (720 x 480 [NTSC], 720 x 576

up to 2 of the following codecs in any combination: JPEG, MPEG-4,
and/or H.264 including multiple instances of the same codec.

25. The SNT-EX154 shall have an Adaptive Rate Control (ARC) function
when using MPEG-4 and H.264 compression. This function when

reduced image quality when network congestion occurs. Should
network bandwidth become further restricted, the frame rate shall then
drop automatically to a suitable speed to maintain image integrity.
26. The SNT-EX154 shall incorporate a built-in Intelligent Motion Detection
(IMD) capability. To minimize false triggers, the SNT-EX154 IMD shall
compare the current image with prior 15 frames within the encoder.

some environmental noise such as shaking leaves or AGC noise.
27. The SNT-EX154 shall incorporate DEPA Advanced technology
whereby the IMD function can be used with built-in Video Motion Filters
(VMF) to trigger alarms based on rules. The encoder shall have the
following 5 VMFs, all of which can be set from the encoder setup
menu:
a. Appearance filter: detects objects that match the detection criteria
for objects entering into a user defined area.
b. Disappearance filter: detects objects that match the detection
criteria for objects exiting a predefined area.
c. Existing filter (Loitering filter): detects an object that stays within a
defined area longer than the set limit.
d. Capacity filter: triggers an alert when the number of detected
objects meets or exceeds the detection criteria for object number
within the configured area.
e. Passing filter or virtual borders: detects objects crossing the set
virtual borderline, going in either direction or a specified direction.
28. The SNT-EX154 shall have an audio detection function, which detects
loud sounds via an external microphone to trigger alarms or camera
actions via encoder. The SNT-EX154 shall compare the detected
sound with the threshold learned from ambient noise and the frequency
to minimize false triggers. The sensitivity settings shall be Low, High
and Manual (1 to 100).
29. The SNT-EX154 shall have a camera tampering detection function that
alerts the operator if the camera is tampered with. Tampering can
include spraying the camera lens, covering it with a cloth, de-focusing
the lens, or changing the mounting direction.
