Solutions and Installation Notes:
Currently Matrix Switchers, DVRs and NVRs do not readily accommodate multi-picture (Matrix) monitor display
capability (typically 4X4 – 16 channel display) for some of the higher resolution cameras. In addition HD cameras use
a wide screen format (16:9 aspect ratio). This may not fit as well into the matrix display as the standard screen format
(4:3 aspect ratio). In addition high resolution multichannel recording can introduce unacceptable latency in the real-time
monitor display.
To achieve high resolution recording along with real-time multi-channel viewing: Record the high resolution IP video via
the NVR and the simultaneous composite video via the Matrix switcher to achieve proper display format (Fig. 4, pg. 4).

*Note: Multiple cameras require higher bandwidth and headend equipment processing speed. It is advised to test this
configuration. eBridge is rated to pass 25mbps of data at distances up to 1500 ft. With proper headend equipment,
multiple Megapixel cameras can be used.
