Tral 5.0

Tral 5 is a one-channel video server modifying  analog video signal to a compressed digital stream for further transfer via local area network.
Compression H.264 or MPEG4.

Video server of Tral 5 series is designed to operate as a core element of video surveillance systems based on IP technology and employing high quality analog cameras. The H.264 compression algorithm provides for high-quality digitizing of analog video at 25 fps with QCIF resolution (704х576 or 704x288).

Tral video server of Series 5 has several modifications, which differ in their technical characteristics:

Tral 5.1 PoE
Weight  103g
Dimensions 120×55×30 mm
Power consumption 2.3 W
Supply voltage  48 V PoE


Tral 5.1 PTZ - is version of  video server with built-in opto-isolated interface converter RS 232 to RS 485. Intended for PTZ cameras.

Tral 5.0 SD and Tral 5.1 SD - are versions of video server Tral 5 with built-in slot for SD memory card.
Weight  103g
Dimensions 120×55×30 mm
Power consumption 2.1 W
Supply voltage  9...16 V DC

Access to the video server is protected by three levels of authorization.

Due to small dimensions, convenient  power supply and the absence of ventilators Tral 5 can be placed in areas, hard-to-reach for intruders. Moreover, miniature size allows the place the device in the thermal cover together with the camera.   Tral 5 supports professional analogue cameras with CCD sensor - input analogue videosignal allows to choose camera according to the application conditions. You can select various lenses and thermal covers for the used cameras. The device differs with economical filling of the archive (due to timer recording opportunity and H.264 compression).   Using Tral 5 PoE avoids the necessity to install electric cable. The built-in video-server PoE splitter provides both server and camera with power supply, using the technology Power over Ethernet (power supply via twisted pair of the local network).   In cases of robbery and break-down of the main network storage the opportunity to use Tral NAS as a duplicating archive, when using a system with many cameras, is provided.

Operation of the video server within surveillance systems is supported by the following software complex applications.

MultiVision application package, that includes the following components:

•    MultiVision-NetViewer: on-line video viewing software; allows to view video from up to 9 video servers in one window;
•    MultiVision-FilePlayer: software allowing synchronous viewing of archives of several video servers with the maximum of 4 simultaneously displayed channels; archive search by event is supported;
•    MultiVision-Setup: video server setup software operating through a network interface;
•    MultiVision-MsnToAvi: utility for conversion of video fragments from *.msn3 to commonly used *.avi format.
Launcher video server network search application that provides:
•    Quick installation of devices on a local network requiring minimum expertise.
GPRS Access application for access to video recorders via low-bandwidth communication channels. Its main functions include:
•    Real-time viewing of low frame rate and resolution video from a selected camera connected to a particular video recorder;
•    Viewing a list of events of a particular video recorder for a certain period of time;
•    Saving video fragments of a particular video recorder for a certain period of time.

Please note!

We’ll supply Tral video server with encoding system of either PAL or NTSC standard at the customer's option.

Kindly specify the encoding system type before placing the order.   

Recording volume

The table below shows the measurement results with video compression H264 with bitrate not more than 3000 Kb/sec:

	Video channels	Audio  channel	Frames per second	Volume, Mb/hour
Tral 5.0	2	+	25	768
		-	25	738
			12.5	408
			6.25	305
	1	+	25	708

Notions and their meaning: H. 264 is a compression algorithm providing the best quality and the maximum compression of video information for the purposes of stationary character. PoE (Power over Ethernet) is a technology enabling to transfer electric energy by a standard twisted pair in Ethernet network. Video server - provides video recording onto the remote NAS. NAS - Network Attached Storage. Real time – recording and viewing at the speed of 25 frames per second.
