Summary of Canon VB150 Network Camera Server

The Canon VB150 server is a network server that distributes live JPEG images, or DVD-quality video via Motion-JPEG over an intranet or the Internet. With a built-in Web and FTP server and a direct network connection, the Canon VB150 allows high-quality remote surveillance from any browser on the network for up to 50 simultaneous viewers. Also, as a stand-alone server, this unit can operate without a PC, and allows you to control camera features and functions remotely via your Web browser. By simply configuring the network server and plugging in the camera, you can begin webcasting. The Canon VB150 features Pan/Tilt/Zoom support for remote camera control, remote JPEG file upload via FTP, and other operations such as brightness control, shutter speed, video connection time and more. Use the motion-detection software that comes with your VB150, and plug in trigger sensors to the server's In/Out device terminal, and you can record still images of events, such as the opening of a door or window, activation of a light switch, or detected motion, and automatically e-mail them to designated recipients. Because the Canon VB150 is a self-contained Web server, it can be secured like any other Internet host. Using the unit's security settings, such as password protection, an administrator can assign whether individuals, groups, a whole company or the whole world can access the server.

With M-JPEG compression, the Canon VB150 is capable of handling up to 640 by 480 pixels of resolution and delivering 30 frames per second (frames-per-second). NTSC or PAL configurable, this video server includes two BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman, RF-type), and two RCA image inputs, as well as two RS-232 serial ports. One of the more versatile camera servers, the VB150 also includes two PCMCIA expansion slots in addition to its Ethernet interface (RJ45, 10/100 Base T/TX auto-negotiation, wireless LAN - uses one PC card slot). Powered by an (included) 100-240-volt AC adapter, this server can operate in temperatures from zero to 40-degrees Celsius.
