Surveillance camera reference design offers 'greater simplicity' over IP cameras
Lattice Semiconductor
HDBase T camera reference design
Lattice Semiconductor and Valens Semiconductor have targeted the surveillance market with an HDBase T camera reference design that enables up to two cameras to be supported, with the output being a HDBase T CAT5 cable containing both uncompressed video streams.
Powered by the PoE CAT5 cable, the system does not require a local power supply nor compression at the camera.
The HDBase T camera reference design can accept multiple 1080p sensor cameras and transmit uncompressed high-definition video over a single 150m CAT5e cable to the DVR, as well as power and various controls.
Lattice Semiconductor and Valens Semiconductor claim that, compared with IP cameras, this camera is simpler, less expensive and provides excellent image quality with zero latency.
