Overview
NOTE:
This manual refers to the PelcoNet NET350 transmission system unit when discussing features, functions, or specifications that apply to
both transmitter and receiver models. “Receiver,” as used in this manual, refers to a PelcoNet NET350 transmission system receiver unless
otherwise noted.
DESCRIPTION
The PelcoNet NET350 transmission system is a network video server that encodes and decodes live video, audio, and control data transmitted
and received over Ethernet computer networks (either intranet or Internet) using the TCP/IP protocol.
The transmission system consists of two units: a transmitter (NET350T) and a receiver (NET350R)however, only the transmitter is required to use
the system. If a receiver is used, video can be displayed on an NTSC or PAL monitor connected to the receiver. If a receiver is not used, video can
be displayed on a PC connected to the network through a web browser.
The NET350T includes a CompactFlash
®
interface for video storage.
Dual MPEG-4 video streams, each of which can be set up differently, is a special feature of the NET350. For example, one video stream might be
set to record at high resolution while the second might have monitoring at a lower resolution.
Transmitters and receivers are identified by IP addresses, just like any other equipment connected to a computer network.
There is a bidirectional serial interface for remote control of peripherals, such as PTZ cameras. The NET350T can transmit and receive audio and
the NET350R can receive audio.
In appropriately configured networks, the multicast function permits simultaneous video transmission in real time to several receivers. For this to
work, the UDP and IGMP multicasting protocols must be implemented in the network.
