The VideoJet X20/X40 XF E encoders belong to a family of high-performance, dual- or quad-input CCTV video encoders by Bosch that deliver real-time H.264 compressed video over IPv4 and IPv6 networks. The units provide two independent streams per camera with full frame rate at best quality for different purposes, like one stream for live viewing with lowest delay while the second stream is optimized for requiring only little recording space.
The VideoJet X20/X40 XF E encoders support PAL and NTSC sources and provide bidirectional audio communication in parallel to video. They are built into a housing that can be easily rack- or wall-mounted. These powerful and flexible devices represent the cutting edge of high-performance video-over-IP for CCTV today.
