With a variety of network-ready products, Sony is leading the way into the new world of network-based surveillance and monitoring applications.In 2002, Sony introduced the SNC-RZ30N Pan/Tilt/Zoom IP camera, offering the flexibility to view scenes from anywhere across the globe over a standard IP network.  With the SNC-RZ30N clearly demonstrating the advantages of network cameras, Sony now explores the possibilities of remote-monitoring applications even further with the introduction of its new fixed network camera, the SNC-Z20N.

The SNC-Z20N incorporates a highly sensitive 1/4 type CCD with Exwave HADTM technology for superb picture quality.  Images are compressed using the industry standard JPEG-compression format for efficient distribution over a network. Equipped with an auto-focus 18x optical zoom lens, this camera can zoom in on small or distant objects with exceptional clarity. Frame rates of 30 fps at VGA resolution is just one of the many capabilities of the SNC-Z20N.  Its built-in web server allows images to be viewed and controlled from a PC running a standard web browser.  The SNC-Z20N also offers a variety of other sophisticated features such as Day/Night mode, Slow Shutter, and Activity Detection functions, ideal for remote monitoring operations.

With its network functionality, superb picture quality, and sophisticated features, the Sony SNC-Z20N is the right choice for network monitoring applications.
