Recording Profiles
The encoders feature a highly flexible recording
scheduler, providing up to ten programmable
recording profiles and allowing individually assigned
camera profiles. With these profiles, you can
accelerate the frame rate as well as increase the
resolution on alarm, saving recording space during
non-alarm periods.
H.264 Baseline Profile Encoding
Firmware 4.0 enables the Bosch VideoJet X encoders
to use H.264 Baseline Profile to encode the video
signal. This allows reducing the required bit rate for a
given quality setting, or increasing the quality when
keeping the bit rate setting.
Frame Rates and Resolution
When one or two inputs are used, the encoders deliver
MPEG‑4 video over IP at a full frame rate of 25 (PAL)
or 30 (NTSC) images per second with up to 4CIF
resolution on every channel. If four inputs are used the
maximum frame rate is 12.5/15 images per second at
4CIF resolution and no Dual Streaming is possible.
Because H.264 Baseline Profile does not support field
encoding, interlaced video is not possible, thus
resolution is limited to a maximum of 2CIF. H.264
encoding requires the double performance in respect
to MPEG‑4. Frame rate values must therefore be
divided by two.
The maximum frame rates listed in the tables below
depend on the resolution, picture content and
movement, and the number of inputs used.
MPEG‑4 4 inputs 2 inputs 1 input
4CIF 12.5/15 ips 25/30 ips 25/30 ips
2/3 D1 25/30 ips 25/30 ips 25/30 ips
2CIF 25/30 ips 25/30 ips 25/30 ips
ips = frame rate in images per second

Reliability
Designed for reliability, the VideoJet X encoders
feature a wide temperature range power supply, dual-
redundant Ethernet network ports, a third SFP
network slot with switching capability between the
network ports, dual USB ports, and fault-tolerant mass
storage via iSCSI.
Access Security
The VideoJet X encoders offer various security levels
for accessing the network, the unit, and the data
channels. As well as password protection with three
levels, they support 802.1x authentication using a
RADIUS server for identification. You can secure Web
browser access by HTTPS using a SSL certificate that
is stored in the unit. For total data protection, each
communication channel—video, audio, or serial I/O—
can be independently AES encrypted with 128‑bit
keys, once the Encryption Site License has been
applied.
Intelligence
With built-in video content analysis, VideoJet X
encoders reinforce the Intelligence-at-the-Edge
concept where edge devices become increasingly
intelligent. The VideoJet X comes with built-in MOTION
+ video motion detection. This motion detection
algorithm is based on pixel change and includes object
size filtering capabilities and sophisticated tamper
detection capabilities.
Bosch offers more advanced video content analysis
(VCA) applications with its Intelligent Video Analysis
(IVA). A licensable option, it bases the IVA algorithm
on digital imaging technology that uses multi-level
image analysis of pixel, texture, and motion
(trajectory) changes.
Viewing
View the VideoJet X encoder video on a PC using a
Web browser, in the Bosch Video Management
System, or integrate it into another video management
system. By routing the IP video to a high-performance
VIP XD video decoder or a VIDOS Monitor Wall, you
can present the video with ultimate clarity.
Camera control
Configure and control your camera or dome using one
of the various pre-defined control protocols.
VideoJet X encoders provide a serial interface and
alternatively support Bilinx communication over coax
cable.
Easy Upgrade
Remotely upgrade the VideoJet X encoders whenever
new firmware becomes available. This ensures up-to-
date products, thus protecting investment with little
effort.
ONVIF conformance
Firmware 4.10 introduces conformance to the ONVIF
(Open Network Video Interface Forum) specification
guaranteeing interoperability between network video
products regardless of manufacturer. ONVIF
conformant devices are able to exchange live video,
audio, metadata and control information and ensure
that they are automatically discovered and connected
to network applications such as video management
systems.
