Surveillance video standards organization HDcctv Alliance will provide the European security industry with its first look at the new generation of HDcctv 2.0 surveillance technologies and products at IFSEC International 2014. The HDcctv 2.0 standards –which were ratified in February of this year– have been developed and agreed for equipment able to produce high-fidelity HD video, without transmission delay and without the need for IP-cameras or new Ethernet cabling within a secured premises –meaning a significant cost-saving in many surveillance systems.

At IFSEC International 2014, Alliance members including Dahua, Eyenix, Intersil, and Telecom & Security will showcase new, HDcctv 2.0-related technologies and equipment.

This demonstration coincides with the recent publication of an IHS report predicting significant growth in the HDcctv market segment over the next few years.

Todd Rockoff, HDcctv Alliance executive director, said: “There are two primary variants of HDcctv 2.0: NR and AT. HDcctv 2.0 NR adds plug ‘n’ play remote control up-the-coax to the underlying HDcctv 1.0 format. HDcctv 2.0 AT, based on HDCVI technology, delivers HDTV signals over any legacy CCTV coaxial cabling, along with the plug ‘n’ play remote control capability. Both variants offer significant advantages over alternative methods for transmitting HD surveillance video.”

Companies exhibiting on the HDcctv Alliance stand at IFSEC International 2014 include: Dahua – A world-leading advanced video surveillance solution provider and the inventor of HDCVI technology. The company’s product portfolio includes a full system series of front-end, back-end, and display equipment.
