Long-distance connections
This product supports fiber-optic cable installations through a media converter. Fiber-optic cable installations offer a number
of benefits such as:
•
Long-distance connection
•
High speed
•
Long lifetime
•
Large capacity of data transmission
•
Electromagnetic interference immunity
Find out more about fiber-optic cable installations in the white paper "Long distance surveillance - Fiber-optic communication in
network video" at axis.com/learning/white-papers.
For information about how to install the media converter see the Installation Guide for this product.
Capture modes
What capture mode to choose depends on the requirements for the frame rate and resolution of the specific surveillance setup. For
specifications about available capture modes, see the product's datasheet at axis.com.
Privacy masks
A privacy mask is a user-defined area that covers a part of the monitored area. In the video stream, privacy masks appear either as
blocks of solid color or with a mosaic pattern.
The privacy mask is relative to the pan, tilt, and zoom coordinates, so regardless of where you point the camera, the privacy
mask covers the same place or object.
You'll see the privacy mask on all snapshots, recorded video, and live streams.
You can use the VAPIX® application programming interface (API) to hide the privacy masks.
Important
If you use multiple privacy masks it may affect the product's performance.
You can create several privacy masks. The maximum number of masks depends on the complexity of all the masks combined. The
more anchor points in each mask, the fewer masks you can create. Each mask can have 3 to 10 anchor points.
Overlays
Overlays are superimposed over the video stream. They are used to provide extra information during recordings, such as a timestamp,
or during product installation and configuration. You can add either text or an image.
Streaming and storage
