Clear and Bright HD Images
Visibility Enhancer 
The SNC-RS Series includes Visibility Enhancer technology.  
This tone-correction technology optimizes the visibility of a 
scene by increasing brightness in darker areas of the 
scene and compressing the brighter areas.  The result is 
sharper, clearer images and a higher level of visibility − all 
of which are critical for security surveillance.
XDNR (eXcellent Dynamic Noise Reduction)
Incorporating newly developed XDNR technology, these 
cameras can provide clear images while at the same 
time minimizing motion blur under low illumination.  What’s 
more, when both XDNR and Visibility Enhancer are turned 
on, the cameras can achieve up to four times the sensitivity 
compared to when they are off.
This technology is ideal for any outdoor surveillance 
monitoring, such as a car parked at night.
Wide-D Technology
The SNS-RS Series incorporates Wide-D technology, which 
offers a wide dynamic range to handle various lighting 
conditions in a scene.  Even in a scene with extremely 
bright and dark areas, or in backlight conditions, the 
SNC-RS Series provides clear visibility of all objects.
Powerful and Versatile Zoom Capability
The SNC-RS46/RS86 incorporates a powerful 36x optical 
zoom lens, while the SNC-RS44/RS84 incorporates a 18x 
optical zoom lens.  Both also feature a 12x digital zoom 
capability, providing a total zoom ratio of 432x for the 
SNC-RS46/RS86 and 216x for the SNC-RS44/RS84.  
Intelligence
DEPA Advanced − Intelligent Video and Audio Analytics
Incorporating DEPA™ Advanced technology, the SNC-RS 
Series offers intelligent video and audio analytics.  With this 
feature, the camera can trigger an alarm based on rules.  
This allows users to further refi ne the criteria for triggering an 
alarm, making the overall system more effi cient.
 Intelligent Motion Detection
With this feature, the cameras can detect irregular motion 
and trigger an alarm based on up to three user-defi ned rules, 
such as intrusion across a virtual border line or a beam 
intrusion detector*

.
 Tamper Alarm
When an attempt is made to tamper with the camera, such 
as spray-painting the lens, the SNC-RS Series detects this and 
triggers an alarm.  This event can be used to activate the 
camera relays, or even to start the Voice Alert function.
 Advanced Audio Detection*
2
Unlike conventional audio detection where an alarm is 
triggered based on a preset audio level, the SNC-RS Series 
triggers its alarms based on ambient sound conditions as the 
threshold.  The camera stores and updates ambient audio 
levels and frequencies, and when the threshold level based 
on this data is surpassed, an alarm is triggered.
Audio Functions
Voice Alert
The camera can store up to three pre-recorded audio fi les.  
Upon initiation, either manually or via an alarm, the 
camera can play out one of the three pre-recorded audio 
fi les via a locally connected active speaker. 
Ambient Sound Filter
The SNC-RS Series is capable of learning ambient sound 
and suppressing extraneous noise.
Dynamic Range Compressor*
2
To prevent audio clipping from occurring due to high 
audio levels, these cameras employ the dynamic range 
compressor, which dynamically controls the gain to 
maintain incoming audio at a proper level.
Echo Cancellation
The SNC-RS Series has an echo-cancellation capability.  
This feature cancels the echo that would otherwise occur 
between the operator site and the camera site, when loud 
speakers and microphones are used in the system.
System Flexibility
Three Codecs − H.264, MPEG-4, and JPEG Support
The SNC-RS Series supports three compression formats: 
H.264, MPEG-4, and JPEG.  The industry-standard JPEG 
compression format is the best choice for high-quality still 
images.  MPEG-4 provides clear moving images effi ciently 
over networks when bandwidth is limited.  H.264 provides 
twice the effi ciency of MPEG-4, for when bandwidth is 
even more limited.
Dual-encoding Capability
With its dual-encoding capability, the SNC-RS Series can 
stream any two formats from H.264, MPEG-4, and JPEG. 
simultaneously.  This fl exibility allows you to maximize your 
network and storage resources.
