The Net Media SC01 CAModulator In-wall B/W Camera with Built-in Modulator provides one of the most innovative solutions available in residential camera applications. The unique in-wall assembly combines a digital-video RF modulator with a CCD-board camera, and provides a one-coax installation where the power and video output for the camera share one coax cable. The output of the SC01 is a television channel that can be distributed via a cable distribution system to all of the televisions in the home, meaning no monitor is required. Easy to install, this camera fits in a single gang (light switch) box and is suitable to both indoor and outdoor applications, with a conformal coating that protects it from the elements.

The Net Media SC01 utilizes a black-and-white CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor and a 3.6-millimeter fixed lens. This unit achieves a resolution of 350 horizontal TVL (TV lines), and can receive a picture down to a minimum illumination of 0.7 Lux. This camera features an automatic electronic iris, and a bendable bracket for adjusting your field-of-view. For its output the Net Media SC01 uses an F-connector, and operates via an RG59, or RG6 or better connection cable. This unit runs on 12-volts DC power supplied via its included cable, and uses a digital crystal PLL (phase-locked loop) modulation method.

Technical Features:

• Sensitivity: minimum illumination of 0.7 Lux
• Modulation method: digital crystal PLL
• Resolution: 350 TVL
• Lens type: 3.6 millimeter fixed
• Dimensions: 4 x 1.7 x 1.9 inches (W x D x H)

The Net Media SC01 deserves serious consideration as one of the easiest and most economical monitoring solutions available for those in need of basic in-home surveillance. The CAModulator's channel range is 25-69 for UHF, or 70-94 and 100-125 for cable. NetMedia CAModulators are FCC tested and compliant and can be used with all structured wiring systems available on the market. Users should note that the CCD image sensor may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light, so the camera should not be mounted or pointed directly at the sun or other bright-light sources.

About Surveillance Camera Technical Features
Lux rating is the measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light, and stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three Lux would mean a camera could generate an acceptable picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter away. The lower the Lux level, the better the camera's ability to work in low-light conditions. The camera's resolution should be greater than or equal to the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor. The S/N, or signal to noise ratio, is an important measure of a camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide dynamic range is ideal, especially for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient.
