Introduction
Features
Thank you very much for your wise choice of Ikegami’s IPD-Q01 Network Camera and
IEN-T01 Network Encoder.
These products have the following features.
z
JPEG2000 format adopted
The JPEG2000 image compression format provides for high compression ratio yet
quality images.
z
Scalable
streaming
Thanks to the JPEG2000 format, an image can be streamed in various combinations
of image sizes (1/1, 1/4 and 1/16), compression ratios (5 levels) and frame rates (7
levels). Different forms of an image may thus be delivered to multiple devices at the
same time.
Let's say, an image is shown in 1/1 size, high-definition compression ratio and 30-fps
frame rate on the screen of equipment A, and in 1/16 size, low-definition compression
ratio and 1-fps frame rate on the screen of equipment B. In this way, the network
camera/encoder system enables scalable streaming of the image.
z
HTTP protocol streaming
This system sends images using the HTTP protocol. There is no or little need to
modify the firewall settings what would have to be altered with the competition's
network cameras and encoders.
z
Web server incorporated
The built-in web server makes for easier monitoring, setting and maintenance when
the system is hooked up to a PC via Internet Explorer.
Recommended operating environment
For image displays, settings and maintenance of this system, the following PC conditions
are needed. If the PC performance is low, it may take time to get streamed images
displayed or recorded images replayed.

Microsoft Windows XP
z
Internet Explorer 6.0
z
Intel Pentium 4 2.0GHz or higher
