Samsung Launches Two New DVRs To The H.264 Video Compression SRD Series

The competitively priced SRD-852D and SRD-1652D eight and sixteen channel DVRs join the existing network friendly DVRs in the highly successful SRD series, all of which capitalize on Samsung's high level H.264 compression to ensure superb picture quality, whilst minimizing bandwidth and video storage requirements.

"These models have been introduced to provide a recording solution for those applications that wish to benefit from the quality that Samsung provides, but do not need the more advanced features found on other units in the range," said Peter Ainsworth, Senior Product Manager at Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd. "As a result we can now offer a compelling choice for cost conscious users still looking to achieve the very best professional performance from their security system."

The eight channel SRD-852D and sixteen channel SRD-1652D, which are suitable for a range of applications including retail, commercial and residential, are able to simultaneously record CIF quality images in real time across all channels or selected channels at 2-CIF or 4-CIF resolutions, whilst audio can be recorded on four channels.

Both models, which offer RS-485 telemetry control, provides users with the option to remotely view live or recorded video over the Internet via a web browser or on an i-Phone or Android smartphone. Video can be recorded on up to four internal hard drives and backed-up by utilising a built-in DVD-RW or two USB outputs.

Additional installer and operator friendly features include a fully removable back panel so that hard drives can be swapped and upgraded without having to unplug all the cables, VGA or BNC outputs and a multiple language on screen display.

The SRD-852D and SRD-1652D are supplied with Samsung's license free NET-i-Viewer software. They also share the same intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) menu structure as all the other DVRs in the SRD series to make it easy for operators, for example, to set up each channel to record at different frames rates or resolutions.

Available from all Samsung distributors, the SRD-852D and SRD-1652D DVRs are offered with full support services from Samsung Techwin Europe Ltd, including free system design, free technical support and a full three-year warranty.
