Video Surveillance 2900 Series Standard Definition IP PTZ Cameras are feature-rich cameras designed for
superior performance, image quality, and ease of deployment. These cameras allow for viewing and control of
analog video while simultaneously viewing, recording, and controlling IP video.
The cameras come with integrated camera optics packages. They offer 360° continuous pan rotation, as w ell as 256
PTZ presets. In addition, the back boxes for these cameras feature built-in memory, which can be used to store
camera- and location-specific dome settings, including labels, presets, patterns, and zones.
Cisco Video Surveillance 2900 Series IP Cameras support two simultaneous video streams. The two streams can be
compressed in MJPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264 formats across several resolution configurations. The streams can be
configured in a variety of frame rates, bit rates, and group of pictures (GOP) structures for additional bandwidth
administration.
All cameras in the Cisco Video Surveillance 2900 Series feature a Sony

imager for increased
sensitivity, and low light technology that allows the cameras to compensate for scenes where minimal light is
present. In addition, the cameras feature built-in motion detection and advanced 128X wide dynamic range (WDR)
that enables the system to compensate for scenes where dramatic contrasts in lighting are present. The 35X
day/night camera also supports electronic image stabilization, which digitally reduces the blurring of the camera
image due to vibration caused by external sources such as wind and traffic.
Web Interface
The Cisco Video Surveillance 2900 Series supports the Internet Explorer 8.0 browser for remote setup and
administration.
Window Blanking
Window blanking is used to conceal user-defined privacy areas that cannot be viewed by an operator. The Cisco
Video Surveillance 2900 Series supports up to eight blanked windows. A blanked area will appear on the screen as
a solid gray window.
