1. Introduction
The CDC2500 xxx Mini series High Speed domes and a series of compatible keyboard controllers
make up the building blocks for any size video surveillance system. Using multiple keyboard
controllers and multiple high speed dome camera units, one can monitor a variety of environments
from small to very large. Extensive and flexible architecture facilitates remote control functions for a
variety of external switching devices such as multiplexers and DVRs.
