RS-232C Interface
Transparency Function:
These cameras have a transparency function that allows
external equipment connected via the RS-232C interface
to be controlled or monitored, by a PC over a network.
VISCA
TM
Protocol:
The SNC-RX Series and the SNC-RZ50 can interface
with external control equipment using the Sony VISCA
protocol. This configuration allows for local control of
Pan/Tilt/Zoom and adjustment of camera settings.
Other Convenient Features
Date/Time Superimposition
The date and time of recorded images can be
superimposed on the video while it is being monitored
and recorded. This feature is ideal not only for easily
identifying the exact date and time of an event during
playback, but because the information becomes part
of the video image, it is also useful when providing
video evidence to authorities.
File Export to Various Removable Media
The SNC multi-codec cameras are equipped with a PC
card slot and/or other removable media slots, allowing
users to store images on removable media as required.
Privacy Zone Masking Functions
*7
Spherical Privacy Zone Masking:
This technology allows masked areas to be interlocked
with the camera’s Pan/Tilt/Zoom movements regardless
of the camera angle or even if it is circling. Up to
eight unwanted or prohibited areas within an image
can be masked precisely and appropriately.
Privacy Zone Masking:
Up to seven unwanted or prohibited areas within an
image can be masked.
*7
Supplied “SNC Privacy Masking Tool” software is required
to set masking areas.
Mechanical “Auto-Flip” Function
The SNC-RX Series combines a 90-degree tilt
capability with 360-degree rotation to track subjects
passing beneath it. First, the camera tilts down 90
degrees until the subject is directly beneath it. Then it
rotates 180 degrees, and tilts back up to track the
subject as it moves away. This combination of moves
is known as the Auto-Flip function.
24 V AC, 12 V DC, or PoE Operation
The SNC-CS50 offers a choice of three types of power:
24 V AC, 12 V DC, or PoE (Power-over-Ethernet, IEEE
802.3af). The camera automatically adapts to the
applied power source for fast and effective operation.

Network Features
Adaptive Rate Control
In order to control QoS (Quality of Service) levels over
a network, these cameras employ an adaptive rate
control (ARC) function. ARC automatically varies the
video bit-transfer rate to meet changing network
conditions and selects the most appropriate frame
rates, thus preventing video breakup.
Simultaneous Access
Up to 20 users can simultaneously access these
cameras and monitor images separately.
Multicasting Capability
When configured with a multicast router, these
cameras can efficiently stream MPEG-4 and H.246
video and audio to a large number of users.
DDNS Support
*6
Because the SNC-RZ50 supports DDNS, a unique
host name can be assigned to the camera when
using a dynamic IP address over the Internet.

Network Security Features
IEEE802.1X Compliant
These cameras support IEEE802.1X port-based
network access control. This means they can be
integrated to a network environment that uses the
IEEE802.1X client-authorization protocol for security
purposes. This feature can be used on both wired-
and wireless-connections.
SSL Compliant
The SNC-RZ50 supports the SSL protocol for
encrypting data, to enable secure data transmission
over networks.
Versatile Interfaces
Analog Composite Video Output
These cameras can output an analog composite
video signal via the BNC connector. This feature is
ideal for local video recording or monitoring.
Also, the analog composite video signal provides a
high-horizontal resolution ranging from 450 to 540
TV lines depending on the model, delivering
amazingly clear and detailed images.
