AXIS P7701 (0319-004) Video Decoder

AXIS P7701 Video Decoder provides a simple monitoring solution by enabling digital or analog monitors to connect to and display live video from Axis network cameras and video encoders. AXIS P7701 is ideal for use with a public view monitor, and in large and small surveillance systems. AXIS P7701 can decode full frame rate video streams in H.264 and MPEG-4 in all resolutions up to D1 (720x480 pixels in NTSC, 720x576 in PAL). Motion JPEG can be decoded in all resolutions up to 720p (1280x720). An unlimited number of video sources can be shown in sequence. With auto-connect on alarm, AXIS P7701 can automatically display alarm-triggered video. The decoder can also be powered through Power over Ethernet, which simplifies installation. AXIS P7701 can scale video to a maximum resolution of 1280x720 pixels on LCD screens, while on analog monitors, the maximum resolution is D1. AXIS P7701 can also output high-quality audio as it can decode audio in AAC, G.726 or G.711 formats. Through an RS-422/RS-485 serial port, AXIS P7701 allows serial commands to be sent to legacy equipment used in a surveillance system. In situations where only live video display is required – such as with a public view monitor at a store entrance, AXIS P7701 offers a more cost-effective solution than connecting a monitor to the network via a PC. AXIS P7701 can also complement a video management system by helping to offload the main server from decoding digital streams simply for display purposes.
