Video encoding
The VIP X16 XF E High Profile encoder uses the H.264 video compression standard. Thanks to
efficient encoding, the data rate remains low even with high image quality and can also be
adapted to local conditions within wide limits.
Audio encoding
The VIP X16 XF E encoder uses the G.711, AAC, and L16 audio compression standards. G.711
is the default setting for live transmission. For recording the default setting is AAC. When
configuring with a Web browser, you can select your preferred standard for recording. Using
video management systems, this is also true for live audio.
Viewing
View the VIP X16 XF E encoder video on a PC using a Web browser or Bosch Video Client, in
the Bosch Video Management System, or integrate it into another video management system.
By routing the IP video to a high-performance VIP XD HD video decoder you can present the
video with ultimate clarity.
Recording
You can record each video input independently on different media. Thus video can be
recorded centrally on iSCSI drives managed by VRM Video Recording Manager.
The encoder features a highly flexible recording scheduler, providing up to ten programmable
recording profiles and allowing individually assigned camera profiles. With these profiles, you
can accelerate the frame rate as well as increase the quality on alarm, saving recording space
during non-alarm periods.
Multicast
In suitably configured networks, the multicast function enables simultaneous real-time video
transmission to multiple receivers. The UDP and IGMP V2 protocols must be implemented on
the network for this function.
Access security
The VIP X16 XF E encoder offers various security levels for accessing the network, the unit,
and the data channels. As well as password protection with up to three levels, they support
802.1x authentication using a RADIUS server for identification. You can secure Web browser
access by HTTPS using a SSL certificate that is stored in the unit. For total data protection,
each communication channel—video, audio, or serial I/O—can be independently AES encrypted
with 128-bit keys, once the Encryption Site License has been applied.
Remote control
For remote control of external units such as pan or tilt heads for cameras or motorized zoom
lenses, control data is transmitted via the encoder's bidirectional serial interface. This
interface can also be used to transmit transparent data.
Intelligence
VIP X16 XF E comes with built-in video motion detection. This motion detection
algorithm is based on pixel change and includes object size filtering capabilities.
On alarm, VIP X16 XF E can send an e-mail with JPEG images attached.
ONVIF conformance
Conformance to ONVIF 1.02 and ONVIF Profile S provides interoperability between network
video products regardless of manufacturer. In addition, the firmware of the device supports
all applicable features of the ONVIF 2.2 specification.
