CCTV | NDC-255-P and NDC-225-P IP Camera 200 Series

The Bosch NDC-255-P and NDC-225-P IP dome cameras
are ready-to-use, complete network video surveillance
systems inside a compact camera. This camera brings
Bosch’s high-performance technology into the realm of
small office and retail businesses by offering a cost-
effective solution for a broad range of applications.
To use the camera as a stand-alone video surveillance
system, simply take it out of the box, assemble it
according to the quick installation guide, start it, and walk
away – it’s already recording. In this mode, no additional
equipment is required.
For medium-to-large-scale or growing systems, the camera
easily integrates with the Bosch Divar 700 Series
recorder. It uses H.264 compression technology to give
clear images while reducing bandwidth and storage by up
to 30%.

Functions

Best-in-class image performance
The camera delivers the clearest images and most
accurate colors within its class. Progressive scan ensures
moving objects are always sharp.
Tri-streaming video
Tri-streaming allows a data stream to be encoded
simultaneously according to three different, individually
customized settings. Two types of streams can serve
different purposes. For example, use H.264 stream for
local recording and viewing, and the M-JPEG stream to
provide compatibility with legacy DVRs.
Efficient recording
A removable microSD/SDHC card offers edge recording
inside the IP dome camera. This card not only saves
network bandwidth but also reduces the requirement for
a high-capacity hard disk or DVR. When used with a
microSD/SDHC card, the camera is a complete, self-
contained surveillance system without the need for
additional equipment.
The camera can also be used with an iSCSI server
connected via the network to store long-term recordings.
16-channel PC surveillance software
The bundled PC surveillance software offers a user-
friendly interface to support easy installation and
configuration. A wizard allows the configuration of
multiple cameras simultaneously using an auto detection
device. Multiple cameras can be monitored in one screen
and video clips on microSD/SDHC cards can be archived,
searched, and exported in a single application.
