The CBC ZS1-4DS is a four-channel IP video server that connects existing analog cameras to an IP network. It supports H.264 and MJPEG compression, dual streaming, resolutions up to D1 at 25 fps, ONVIF interoperability, and integrated upgradeable GXi video analytics. The unit provides four analog video inputs along with digital I/O, audio, RS-485/RS-232, and optional SD-card recording.
Model: ZS1-4DS | Channels/Resolution: 4 analog channels, up to D1 at 25 fps | Video Compression: H.264, MJPEG | Connectivity: 4 × BNC video inputs, 10/100Mbps Ethernet, ONVIF | Interfaces: 4 digital inputs/outputs, 4 audio inputs, 1 audio output, RS-485, RS-232
The ZS1-4DS digitizes video from up to four analog cameras and sends it over a 10/100Mbps Ethernet network using H.264 or MJPEG compression. Dual streaming allows separate video streams for different viewing or recording tasks, while GXi analytics can add event and scene analysis to supported channels. Digital I/O and audio interfaces allow the server to exchange alarm, control, and audio signals with connected equipment.
The metal unit measures 137 × 38 × 243 mm (W × H × D) and weighs approximately 920 g. It operates from 12 VDC with typical consumption of 735 mA at 12 VDC and is rated for 0°C to 50°C operation. Configuration is performed through a web interface, and the optional SD card can be used for local recording.
