3xLOGIC, one of the leading providers of integrated and intelligent security solutions, has announced the release of its advanced VH-DECODER-4K.  

The company says the product is perfect for use in organisations of all sizes in diverse vertical sectors such as retail, leisure and hospitality, education and commercial premises.  

The VH-DECODER-4K is a device used for setting up public view monitors or spot monitors, offering cost effective configuration by connecting directly to a camera network using minimal cabling. 

“The VH-DECODER-4K converts digital data received from IP networks into video signals for display on a monitor,” explained Mike Poe, Director, Product Management at 3xLOGIC.  

“It decompresses the video data using the same standards as the encoder and restores the original quality and resolution of the video.  

“This capability is indispensable for users that need to monitor and review live camera footage and becomes particularly important when compatibility with legacy equipment is a key requirement.” 

Advanced configuration 

Users can connect the VH-DECODER-4K to a camera network and run a short video cable to a monitor.  

By using 3xLOGIC’s Decoder Setup Utility’s set-up guide and camera finder, it can display video within minutes and work independently of, or in conjunction with, a VIGIL Server, showing up to 16 cameras on a single monitor through various simultaneous connections including BNC, VGA or HDMI. 

The VH-DECODER-4K handles both 4K and 1080p IP video decoding, supporting up to 8MP resolution.  

Advanced configuration through an internet-based interface allows for two-way audio, alarm I/O and serial communication.  

Furthermore, with VIGIL Server 9.0 and beyond, analogue cameras can be integrated with the VH-DECODER-4K alongside ONVIF compliant IP cameras.  

With up to 16 cameras on a single monitor, large areas can be covered, while high resolution monitoring creates greater employee safety, security and facilitates enhanced operational insight, the company reports.  

Protection

“At 3xLOGIC we believe that all organisations should have access to state-of-the-art security technology that helps them protect people, property and assets,” concluded Mike Poe.  

“With streamlined installation and operation, the VH-DECODER-4K is a game changer when it comes to video decoding.  

“Whether you need 4K clarity or simultaneous 1080p channels, it offers a quick and simple way to configure a public view monitor or spot monitor, providing the flexibility required to cater for varied end user business needs.”
