"HD over Coax 2.0 is a concept but the fact remains that Dahua is playing a leading role in HD analogue innovation,” said Tim Shen, Marketing Director at Dahua Technology. "The inspiring market acceptance and feedback drive us to keep innovating and to bring out more benefits to the market.”

The HDCVI Gen II camera features a high performance sensor and Dahua in-house chipset DH5000, which combines image signal processor (ISP) and TX chipset, and which according to the company, results in an impressive performance improvement. The new cameras can not only provide clear and crisp images at 1080p and 720p, but also provide an outstanding night visual effect.

Moreover, their wider dynamic range can better cope with places of strong lighting contrast. Meanwhile, Gen II inherits convenient functions of previous HDCVI models, such as HD/SD switch and OSD menu.

As for camera types, in addition to the fixed lens cameras, the CVI family adds a 2.7mm to 12mm motorised (-Z) and vari-focal (-VF) series this time to further meet the market demand. As for motorised ones, which have been aniticipated for a long time by the market, Dahua has adopted optimised algorithms to realise faster and more accurate focus for instant and convenient adjustments.

On top of that, there are seven models in total in various designs, including eye-balls, IR-bullet and domes with IP66 waterproof and IK10 vandal-resistant housing, helping these cameras to withstand difficult environmental conditions and sabotage.

The Hdcctv Allinace HDCVI 2.0 standard is based on HDCVI technology, meaning that Dahua has a dedicated 100% sure plug ‘n’ play remote control solution for any camera from any compliant DVR from any manufacturer.  "Dahua advocates interoperability, and the cooperation with the Hdcctv Alliance accelerates the development to HD, which, undoubtedly, helps our growing customer base to enjoy more of the benefits of HD surveillance,” Shen added.

The latest HDCVI family will be displayed at Security China 2014 from 28th October to 1st November. Visitors are encouraged to experience hands-on operation and face-to-face communication to enjoy a genuine and easy analogue HD solution.
