A powerful new Virtual Matrix Solution from Vicon

Product Profile

The VMDC is a complete solution for control centres running video and situation management software to monitor and control IP-based security networks. It is fully scalable, with genuinely easy to use drag-and-drop functionality, HD and megapixel camera support and allows instantaneous access to recorded footage displayed adjacent to live video.

With megapixel cameras increasingly being specified as part of a CCTV solution, the VMDC provides a display solution that brings the full power of high-definition video to the viewing experience.

The VMDC decodes JPEG4, MPEG4 and H.264 video for display on 16:9 and 4:3 high definition monitors. A single VMDC unit supports up to six high-definition monitors displaying multiple video streams, with each monitor offering a variety of camera display configurations. Control of additional monitors is as easy as connecting additional units to the network, providing a scalable, cost-effective management solution.

A single VMDC unit supports up to six high-definition monitors displaying multiple video streams - up to 128 IP streams can be handled by each controller with up to 64 on each monitor output - with each monitor offering a variety of camera display configurations. Multi-layer graphical maps can be used to represent cameras and alarms.  Control of additional monitors and camera streams is as easy as connecting additional units to the network, providing a fully scalable, cost-effective management solution.
