Hikvision launches Pro Series 4.0 cameras to help small and medium businesses maximize their site security

Hikvision, the world’s leading provider of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, has announced a new range of network cameras: Pro Series 4.0. Building on the capabilities of its Pro Series 3.0 range, these provide simple, practical and affordable surveillance solutions for small and medium size businesses.

The Pro Series 4.0 products are built on Hikvision’s H.265+ Smart Codec technology, which reduces bandwidth and storage requirements by up to 50% over the H.265 video compression standard, delivering major IT savings for businesses.

As an additional benefit, the Pro Series 4.0 range introduces several new technology innovations to help businesses maximise their surveillance and security. These include:

Hikvision AcuSense  

The integration of Hikvision AcuSense into the Pro Series 4.0 IP cameras helps to reduce false alarms by up to 70%, providing faster reaction times for real security threats. Hikvision AcuSense works by detecting and categorising humans or vehicles, while effectively reducing false alarms triggered by natural movements, such as rain or leaves.

Hikvision AcuSense cameras also incorporate Hikvision’s “Powered by DarkFighter” ultra-low-light illumination technology, which provides superior surveillance images, even at night. Combined with ultra-high-definition video capabilities, Powered by DarkFighter ensures that organisations can identify and react to security threats effectively, and provide high quality video evidence in the event of a security breach.

The “Quick target search” feature is now supported by Hikvision standard K and I series NVRs, which allows security teams to find footage quickly in the event of a security incident. This feature can save many man-hours for teams otherwise restricted to searching for footage manually.

Hikvision ColorVu 

Pro Series 4.0 ColorVu cameras use warm, supplemental lighting to deliver bright colour video images, even at night. Round-the-clock colour-boosting capabilities are powered by an F1.0 super aperture, a more advanced sensor, warm supplemental lighting, and a range of other technologies. With brighter, more colourful video, Pro Series 4.0 ColorVu cameras support protection against security breaches whenever they happen, day or night.

The new Hikvision Pro Series 4.0 product line will be available through authorised Hikvision distribution channels in Q2 2019.

Please note: Hikvision false alarm reduction technology is optimised by environmental and installation factors including but not limited to supplemental light levels, day/night image quality/performance, installation position & angle, and setup, etc. The false alarm reduction rate stated above is NOT automatically guaranteed, because it depends upon the installer getting the best performance accounting for key factors, and accurately following the installation guide provided via the Hikvision UK website.
