Belden to ensure its coaxial cable continues to meet the high performance requirements of HDcctv applications.
SYDNEY, Australia, (PRWEB) June 21, 2010 – HDcctv Alliance®, the global security industry consortium established to manage and promote technical standards for HDcctv equipment interoperability, announced today that Belden, the world's largest manufacturer of professional video cable, has joined the Alliance to enhance their position in the evolution of video surveillance camera connection technology.
“In this post-9/11 world, video surveillance has expanded in every area,” noted Steve Lampen, Belden multimedia technology manager. “From traffic light video and airport surveillance to casino face recognition and gaming table detail, we believe HDcctv offers dramatic improvements in video performance to a host of existing and emerging applications.”
According to Lampen, all Belden CCTV coaxial cables are recommended for use in HDcctv installations. “Some of our professional cables are without equal in the industry and offer unparalleled performance in HDcctv applications,” continued Lampen. “Our engineering and marketing teams are ready to apply themselves to any new product development opportunities that HDcctv offers.”
“Belden is the leader in supplying the worldwide demand for CCTV cabling, and we are delighted they have chosen to participate in crafting the HDcctv standard,” said Todd Rockoff, HDcctv Alliance executive director. “With plans to provide for direct transmission over media such as Category cable and optical fiber in future versions of the HDcctv standard, the Alliance looks forward to significant contributions from Belden.”
The HDcctv Alliance has partnered with SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) to leverage the HD-SDI (High-Definition Serial Digital Interface) broadcast television standard as the basis for the HDcctv Specification. HDcctv includes a variety of enhancements to HD-SDI that are vital to surveillance, including bi-directional audio and data, up-the-cable power, and Long Reach Mode for 300m transmission over conventional RG-59 cable.
The Alliance is rapidly growing, drawing its international membership from diverse sectors of the security industry, from component, OEM and branded equipment manufacturers, to security sales, support and system installers. Alliance members benefit from access to the specification, participation in the standard creation process, and certification of compliant products. Marketing benefits include HDcctv logo product branding to signify interoperability and promotions to increase members’ international visibility.
