Sony SNC-P1 User Manual
All-in-One Network Video Camera
The SNC-P1 incorporates a 1/4-type progressive scan CCD,
built-in microphone, and 100Base-TX/10Base-T (RJ-45)
network interface in a compact and stylish body. With its
built-in web server, the SNC-P1 allows users to monitor
images and manage the camera on a PC running a standard
web browser; no additional software is needed.

MPEG-4 Compression Format
The SNC-P1 utilises the MPEG-4 compression format that
achieves high-compression ratios, allowing smooth moving
images to be streamed over a wide range of bandwidths.
Because of its high-compression ratios, users can monitor
high-quality moving images with low delay- even at low
bandwidths. The transmission mode (TCP or UDP) and image
size can be selected according to the network environment
and application requirements. Image size can be selected
from six modes: 640 x 480, 480 x 360, 384 x 288, 320 x 240,
256 x 192, and 160 x 120. What's more, the SNC-P1 supports
variable bit rate of up to 2 Mbps, providing great quality
images.

JPEG Compression Format
In addition to the MPEG-4 compression format, the SNC-P1
employs the industry-standard JPEG compression format.

High Frame Rate
The SNC-P1 produces images with a maximum frame rate of
30 fps at 320 x 240 size in both MPEG-4 and JPEG modes,
allowing clear and smooth images to be viewed. The frame
rate can be fixed or set to a variable rate that automatically
adjusts to the available bandwidth.

Audio Monitoring
Incorporating a built-in microphone and an external
microphone input, the SNC-P1 allows users to also monitor
audio. Used with an external microphone, the SNC-P1 is
capable of picking up sound from distant objects clearly. The
unit is also equipped with an audio line output for active
speakers; users can send an alert or make an announcement
at the camera site through speakers.

Network Features
Adaptive Rate Control
To implement Quality of Service (QoS) technology on
the network, the SNC-P1 provides an adaptive rate control
function. This automatically varies the bit rate of audio and video
data corresponding to changing network conditions and selects
the most appropriate frame rates. This function helps prevent
audio and video breakup.
