Leopard Imaging announces hybrid HD network video recorders

USA: Leopard Imaging announced the release of the third-generation video recorder Hybrid High-Definition Network Video Recorder (H2NVR).

The H2NVR allows customers to easily upgrade existing analog surveillance camera to high-definition camera without changing the coaxial cable. Leopard uses advanced technology to stream HD video through more than 500 meters of existing coaxial cable.

The H2NVR embeds a DaVinci video processor from Texas Instruments (TI) and can support 16 channels of 1080p at 30 frames per second (fps). This system is ideal for customers who currently manufacture analog surveillance camera systems and would like to upgrade to high-definition digital surveillance camera systems.

The H2NVR surveillance system includes LNC-H2NVR video recorder and 1-16 LNC-H2CAM cameras. The system:

* Is easy to upgrade from existing DVR.
* Enables transmission distance of more than 500 meters through SYV75-5 or RG59 coaxial cable.
* Offers high resolution: 1080p@30fps.
* Allows better noise immunization compared to analog video transmission.
* Eliminates the need for additional cables for audio, alarm and PTZ control because a single coaxial cable supports all options.
* Includes built-in smart functions such as face recognition and car plate recognition.
* Supports up to 16 channels of H2CAM or up to 4 channels HD IP camera plus 12 channels Coaxial cable camera H2CAM.
* Offers plug and play functionality for the same convenience as DVR.
* Enables remote network monitoring, alarm and query.
* Supports network attached storage (NAS).
* Integrates an HDMI interface for real-time monitoring.
* Offers wide dynamic range, low light sensitivity and low noise options with the H2CAM.
