Cisco 4000 Series Video Surveillance High-Definition
IP Cameras
Cisco
®
Video Surveillance 4000 Series IP Cameras are feature-rich digital cameras
designed for superior performance in a wide variety of video surveillance applications.
The cameras employ true high-definition (HD) video and H.264 compression, streaming
up to 30 frames per second (fps) at 1080p (1920 x 1080) resolution, and 60 fps at 720p
(1280 x 720) resolution, offering efficient network utilization with the highest-quality video.
Contact closures and two-way audio allow integration with microphones, speakers, and
access control systems. With its open, standards-based design, the camera provides an
ideal platform for integration and operation as an independent device or as part of a Cisco
Video Surveillance network.
The Cisco Video Surveillance CIVS-IPC-4300 and CIVS-IPC-4500 IP Cameras have identical
feature sets, with the exception of the additional digital signal processor (DSP) capabilities
specifically designed to support real-time video analytics at the edge on the CIVS-IPC-4500. On
this model, applications and end users have the option to run multiple analytics packages without
compromising video streaming performance on the camera. This highly flexible future-proof
computing platform is ideal for next generation video analytics applications.

The Cisco Video Surveillance 4000 Series IP Camera offers a variety of benefits, including:
True high-definition video. The camera streams crisp and clear 1080p (1920 x 1080)
video at 30 frames per second while maintaining surprisingly low network bandwidth. For
fast motion applications, the camera can be set to stream 720p (1280 x 720) video at 60
frames per second.
Progressive scan video. The camera captures each frame at its entire resolution using
progressive scan rather than interfaced video capture, which captures each field of video.
This feature allows for better detail for video of moving objects such as faces and license
plates on automobiles.
