WHat IS HD-SDI?The demand for high-resolution video is growing in the video surveillance equipment market and

beyond. Nothing compares to the video quality of true high definition (HD) video. HD-SDI technology

not only delivers incredible resolution and image quality that is far superior to analog CCTV, an

HD-SDI video system provides a cost-effective video surveillance solution that’s easy to integrate,

implement and install.

When To Consider HD-SDIThe benefits of HD-SDI are far-reaching, and almost everyone in every

type of industry can benefit from implementing HD-SDI technology.

If You Want Better ResolutionIf you need higher quality images than analog CCTV, HD-SDI will

be a big benefit to you when it comes to image quality. HD-SDI

delivers high-quality, detailed HD resolution to support your

business needs. You have the ability to zoom in during live video

and playback modes to focus in on area of interest with exceptional

clarity and crisp detail.

If You Want To Cut CostsIf you have budget constraints, HD-SDI hybrid systems provide a cost-effective solution.

A hybrid HD-SDI system allows you to utilize existing analog CCTV equipment, yet provides

the ability to utilize HD cameras and features as you need them.

The Six Benefits of HD-SDI

Use Existing Cabling

In most cases, you can install an HD-SDI system using your existing coax (RG/59, RG/6 and RG/11) cables without an adapter. The ability to use existing cabling is a huge benefit of HD-SDI. An analog CCTV system upgrade to digital IP can be costly, since it requires changes to the existing cabling infrastructure. An HD-SDI system with both HD and analog ports provides an easy, cost-effective solution for utilizing existing analog cameras, while allowing the capability to also utilize HD-SDI cameras as needed. Unlike IP video cameras, HD-SDI video cameras are point-to-point, using coax cables to send the video feed directly from the camera to the recording device or DVR without the need for encoders or an existing network. An HD-SDI camera can be plugged into any compatible receiving device without having to be configured and will display uncompressed, high-quality video without latency. Being able to use existing cabling (versus having to install the network infrastructure needed for an IP megapixel video system), helps reduce your overall implementation costs.

The Six Benefits of HD-SDI

Unparalleled Resolution

HD-SDI is the only high-resolution video surveillance camera connection technology that delivers uncompressed, HDTV-compliant, TV broadcast quality signals in live video viewing. HD-SDI’s exceptional megapixel quality resolution is especially beneficial for video surveillance; it helps you to make analyses and decisions to improve all areas of your business—from loss prevention and safety to operations.

You have the ability to zoom in during live video and playback modes to focus in on area of interest with exceptional clarity and crisp detail. Crisp, detailed video can make a big difference in providing valuable information and solutions for your business. For example, with a higher-quality resolution, you have the ability to see faces and license plates more clearly, which can help to more easily identify someone during a questionable event or transaction. The amount of viewable detail in your recorded video can make a difference when it comes to being able to identify the suspect and link them to the crime, with evidence to prosecute. An analog camera does not have enough pixel resolution to provide that kind of detail and awareness.

As with any technology, there are various needs and requirements. With

HD-SDI, not all equipment is mix-and-match. There are certain capabilities

and limitations depending on your choice of system (HD-SDI or HD-SDI

Hybrid), as well as your needs and compatibility with existing equipment.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when purchasing an HD-SDI solution.

HD-SDI Systems• HD-SDI HD-SDI only DVRs are only compatible with HD-SDI cameras and will not

work with analog CCTV cameras. Most HD-SDI DVRs are compatible with a variety of brands, but be sure to look for brand compatibility before making your selection.

• HD-SDI Hybrid An HD-SDI Hybrid system provides hybrid flexibility and allows for the connection of both HD-SDI cameras and analog CCTV cameras. The number of HD-SDI and analog channels supported are predefined, so check to see if the DVR is a hybrid model the appropriate number of HD and analog inputs for your needs.

HD-SDI Cameras• With an HD-SDI system and cameras, you can send HD video on existing coaxial

cable (RG/59, RG/6 and RG/11) without an adapter.

• HD-SDI cameras require no camera boot-up time: they are point-to-point and plug-and-play. You can install them just like a standard analog CCTV system.

Cabling• HD-SDI systems allow you to utilize existing analog CCTV coax cabling as long as the

cable distance is sufficient for HD-SDI video signals (RG/59/RG6 and RG/11 or fiber optics).

• HD-SDI video cameras are point-to-point, and you can use existing coax cables to send the video feed directly from the camera to the recording device or DVR without the need for encoders or an existing network.

If you have questions when purchasing an HD-SDI security system, DVR or cameras, you can call a knowledgeable sales person who can best answer your questions. The sales team at Supercircuits is happy to help.

The Six Benefits of HD-SDI

Upgrade For Less

HD-SDI systems allow you to utilize existing cabling, don’t require a network infrastructure to upgrade, and require less bandwidth, so you will save on cabling, installation and operational costs. Also, with a hybrid HD-SDI system, you get both analog and HD inputs so you can use your utilize your existing analog cameras and upgrade to HD as you need, which saves on your upgrade costs.

HoW HD-SDI, IP anD analog CCtV VIDeo InterfaCeS ComPareIs HD-SDI technology is right for you? Here’s a quick look at

how analog CCTV, MP IP and HD-SDI interfaces compare:

HD-SDI has emerged as an alternative to IP video. It delivers superior image quality, is less complicated to operate and is more convenient to integrate with existing analog CCTV installations. With an HD-SDI system, you can send HD video on existing coaxial cable (RG/59, RG/6 and RG/11) without an adapter. A networking or IT background is not needed to install the system, because its plug-and-play connectivity is as easy to implement as standard analog CCTV cameras.

Hybrid HD-SDI DVRs include inputs for HD-SDI cameras as well as inputs for analog cameras. This provides true flexibility since analog cameras can be added to the hybrid system to utilize your existing cameras, and you can also add HD-SDI cameras to experience the benefits of HD-SDI in the most-needed areas of your business.

The Six Benefits of HD-SDI

Ease of Installation

With an HD-SDI DVR, you don’t need a networking or IT background in order to install the system, because it features plug-and-play connectivity that’s as easy to implement as standard analog CCTV systems. And, unlike an IP-based video system, there’s no need to configure or program each device, you just plug it in.

The Six Benefits of HD-SDI

Ease of Use

An HD-SDI system is incredibly easy to use. With an HD-SDI system, the user interface is the same for the operator or installer as a CCTV interface, so no additional training is necessary to operate the system. HD-SDI DVRs provide both HD and SD resolution options.
