The Bosch 700 Series Hybrid and Network Recorders offer top-of-the-line performance and adaptability. Equipped with four front-replaceable hard drives and extensive integration features, the 700 Series is ideal for medium to large-scale systems. 700 Series’ superior image quality and compression gets the most out of CCTV images. Available in both IP-only and hybrid models, the 700 Series can handle even the most challenging CCTV applications without excessive demands from installers and operators.

Functions

High performance H.264
With real-time viewing, recording, and playback in genuine 4CIF resolution, 700 Series Recorders capture all the details. More detail typically means increased bandwidth, larger storage requirements, and increased costs — but not with the 700 Series. Bosch’s adanced H.264 compression technology used in the 700 Series reduces bandwidth and storage needs by up to 30% or more, compared to traditional MPEG-4 systems.

Embedded design
The embedded design of the 700 Series Recorder offers a higher level of security against network attacks than traditional systems and has lower maintenance requirements. The security of recordings remains high while eliminating the need to install software patches and anti-virus updates. The integrated architecture, built-in installation wizards, and low-maintenance design make the 700 Series easy to set up and operate while delivering a lower total cost of ownership.

Hybrid Models
The world of CCTV is changing — IP is replacing the analog standard in many areas. Bosch’s 700 Series Recorders have the flexibility to adapt to this changing environment. The 700 Series Hybrid Recorder is the ideal choice for growing applications which use a mix of analog and IP cameras. It can record 8 or 16 analog cameras and an additional 8 or 16 IP channels, all with real-time frame rates at 4CIF resolution.

Network Models
The 700 Series Network Recorder is the perfect match for pure IP environments. While typical IP solutions consist of many separate components — NVR Server, PC Client, external RAID storage array and software — the 700 Series Network Recorder is an all-in-one IP video management solution.

With support for a total of 32 H.264 cameras and a fully automated, onboard IP camera management system, 700 Series is straight forward to set up and maintain right outof- the-box.

Power to integrate
Bosch’s VideoSDK provides a complete toolbox of modules for playback, searching, viewing live images, and more — simplifying integration with other surveillance systems. The VideoSDK even allows integration with specialized software tools such as fraud detection programs for retail applications.

Control of 700 Series Recorders can be automated using CLI (Command Language Interface) commands. This allows the 700 Series to be interfaced with external software (over RS232 or IP), which is typically used to sense alarms or handle access control on an existing (embedded) computer system. Functions include front panel emulation, configuration, and viewing status information. For instructions on how to use the CLI, please refer to the documentation on the Bosch Security Systems website.

Record text data together with associated video (e.g. from an ATM machine, license plate reader, or cash register) using the text support feature. Searching text data allows fast retrieval of the associated video and provides legal evidence in the event of fraud.

Flexible and reliable storage
Access the four internal hard drives via the front without opening the unit, thus simplifying service and making it easy to add additional storage on-site when needed. Configure the disks as a RAID 4 array for extra reliability. Expand storage further with an external Bosch iSCSI video storage array. This makes the 700 Series ideal for applications requiring continuous recording at the highest resolution, frame rate, and retention time.

Ease of use
Find key events in recorded video quickly by utilizing the unit’s smart search to find changes only in selected areas. Compare past and present events by simultaneously viewing live images with playback scenes.

Export recordings by simply downloading them to a USB memory device, burning them to the optional built-in DVD recorder, or exporting them remotely via the Control Center software. The 700 Series makes it easy to manage and transport images. All video is digitally watermarked to ensure the credibility of recordings.

The unit’s intuitive interface with clear, menu-driven options is quick to learn and easy to use. Choose from a selection of control devices, including a mouse or CCTV keyboard. With the keyboard loop-through feature, up to sixteen 700 Series Recorders can be controlled from a single IntuiKey keyboard.

Flexibility is also abundant with its extensive range of advanced functionality. Other convenient features include remote playback capability and dual VGA monitor support. Live viewing, playback, configuration, remote management — it is all simple and straightforward with the 700 Series.
