The Bosch VIP X1600 XF is a modular, high-performance
CCTV video encoder system. Each VIP X1600 XF is a 4 x 4
unit that accommodates up to four hot-swappable
modules, allowing modules to be added or exchanged at
any time without interrupting transmission to the existing
channels. Encoder modules, each with four analog audio/
video inputs, can be mixed and matched within both base
systems.
The VIP‑X1600‑XFB base system provides two 1 Gbps
Ethernet ports on the front and an additional 1 Gbps
Ethernet port on the rear. This provides a greater choice
of network connectivity and allows for easier inside-rack
cabling like, for example, direct connection to an iSCSI
storage array. This base system also features a 1 Gbps
small form-factor pluggable (SFP) slot on the front, for
example, an optical transceiver to enable direct fiber
connection to a remote network. For applications not
benefiting from these advanced features the VIP‑X1600‑B
base system is available that just provides two 1 Gbps
Ethernet ports, one on the front and one on the rear.
The VIP X1600 XF H.264 main profile encoder modules
(VIP‑X1600‑XFM4A/XFM4B) deliver real-time H.264
compressed video over IP, providing 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. In addition they are
equipped with a hardware-accelerator for VCA functions,
bringing “Intelligence-at-the-Edge” to the next level. A
module version supporting Bilinx communication over
coax cable is also available.
The VIP X1600 MPEG‑4 encoder modules (VIPX1600M4S/
M4SA) also support H.264 with the latest firmware,
though with limited functionality.
View the video on a PC using Bosch’s comprehensive
video management system, with or without Bosch’s
IntuiKey keyboard. Alternatively, use a Web browser.
These high-performance, multi-channel devices with iSCSI
Recording-at-the-Edge, offer top-of-the-line Video-over-IP
performance for CCTV today. Designed for reliability, the
VIP X1600 XF features hot-swappable video modules, dual
redundant power supply inputs, and redundant network
ports.
The Bosch VideoSDK provides the means to integrate the
VIP X1600 XF with other video management systems.
