Chapter 2- Fixed Box Network Camera Overview

The Brickcom Fixed Box series offers a reliable and efficient solution for 24-hour video surveillance. The Fixed Box series offers highly efficient H.264 video compression, which reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without compromising image quality. M-JPEG and MPEG-4 are also supported for flexibility.

With the megapixel progressive sensor and removable IR-cut Filter, this series delivers extremely clear and detailed images that CCTV cameras cannot offer. The internal SD/SDHC memory card slot allows for local storage, which prevents data loss if the data connection is lost. Users can view live feed anywhere by internet browser or 3G mobile phone. Also, the Fixed Box series can transmit the video to portable devices through other technology, such as WiMax, NAS, Digital Frame and power line.

The Fixed Box series receives power through the same cable as for data transmission. This makes installation easy because there is no external power supply needed.

For easy setup, the Fixed Box series offers a step-by-step installation package. "Easy Config" makes the configuration simple even for users without an IT background.

With IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless compliance, network installation is not restricted by location or landforms. The Wireless Fixed Box series can be installed in any location with wireless coverage. It can easily be used to cover remote districts and historic spots.

In addition to the motion detection function, the Fixed Box advanced Series can also support Intelligent Video Analysis which can be used for applications such as object tracking, people counting, and forbidden region alarm.
