User Manual
Overview
Product Description
The SymDec 4 is a 4-channel Video Streaming Recorder that introduces "hybrid" recording that works with
both conventional analog cameras (4) and the new family of GE digital cameras (1). This unique platform
provides a graceful migration path to digital recording – the future of video recording.
The SymDec 4 allows users to record full-size images at full speed on every channel. Using MPEG-4
compression, the SymDec 4 records at 60, 30, 20, 15, 10, and 5 pictures per second (NTSC) and has virtual
triplex functionality for simultaneous viewing, playback, and recording of video.
Note:
In PAL video mode the SymDec 4 can record a t 50, 25, 17, 13, 10, and 5 pps.
The SymDec 4 has a form factor that's one-half rack unit wide by 2U high, so it fits easily into a standard 19-
inch rack. Some models of the SymDec 4 are equipped with a removable hard drive caddy, which allows for
portable storage or evidence transfer. In addition, the SymDec 4 can be easily networked and recorded video
viewed remotely over Ethernet.
