For current owners of CCTV surveillance networks, the upgrade path from a standard CCTV camera network to an IP based network can represent daunting challenges. For these clients, Cortex SDI technology offers an easy to use alternative. The biggest advantage, when installed networks are concerned, is the plug-and-lay aspect of SDI. They use common coaxial cables, so there is no need to lay new cables if you are replacing a current. They don't use IP connections, so there is no need to call in an network specialist to set up your DVR or remote viewing equipment. This 1080p HD SDI with/ Advanced Wide Dynamic Range and Mechanical IR Filtration will not disappoint.
SDI - Serial Data Interface
Sometimes called Serial Digital Interface, the SDI format provides an easy to implement method of connecting advanced CCTV cameras to existing and new security networks. They use coaxial cable, so if you already have a network that uses coaxial cable you don't have to replace them. This means savings, especially on long cable runs. No new cable required, no new installers (labor charge). SDI security cameras connect directly to coax.
