NPC-20012 Series Description


The 720p indoor microbox cameras with WiFi and a passive infrared (PIR) motion detector are ready-to use, complete network video surveillance systems inside a compact and stylish housing. These cameras bring Bosch’s high-performance technology into the realm of homes, small office and retail businesses by offering a cost-effective solution for a broad range of applications.


NPC-20012 Series System overview


Ideal for indoor use, the compact, aesthetic design is suitable for installations where housing size and appearance are important. The camera is available in two colours and is supplied with a versatile mounting bracket, allowing it to be easily positioned for best coverage.


The wireless connectivity, with no external antenna, further enhances the aesthetic nature of the installation and also removes the need for a network cable.


NPC-20012 Series Functions


Integrated wireless connection


The integrated wireless LAN feature supports the IEEE 802.11b, g and n standards allowing the camera to connect to fast WiFi access points. The WPS button provides an easy and simple way to set up the wireless LAN connection and security settings.


Motion and audio detection


The built-in passive infrared (PIR) sensor detects motion within 5 meters, even in complete darkness. can then trigger an alarm, start recording or switch on the integrated white light LED to provide illumination in darkened rooms. These functions can also be activated by the detection of sound by the built-in microphone.


Built-in microphone and loudspeaker


The built-in microphone and loudspeaker allows remote users to listen in on an area and communicate messages to visitors or intruders via the loudspeaker. Audio detection can be used to generate an alarm if needed.


Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction


Quiet scenes with little or no movement require a lower bitrate. By intelligently distinguishing between noise and relevant information, Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction reduces bitrate by up to 50%. Because noise is reduced at the source during image capture, the lower bitrate does not compromise on video quality.


With Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction, our focus is to significantly reduce storage costs, and lessen network strain by only using bandwidth when needed.


Area-based encoding


Area-based encoding is another feature which reduces bandwidth. Compression parameters for up to eight user-definable regions can be set. This allows uninteresting regions to be highly compressed, leaving more bandwidth for important parts of the scene.


Bitrate optimized profile


The average typical optimized bandwidth in kbits/s for various image rates is shown in the table:


 

Multiple streams


The innovative multi-streaming feature delivers various H.264 streams together with an M‑JPEG stream. These streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording as well as integration with third-party video management systems.


Depending on the resolution and frame rate selected for the first stream, the second stream provides a copy of the first stream or a lower resolution stream. The third stream uses the I-frames of the first stream for recording; the fourth stream shows a JPEG image at a maximum of 10 Mbit/s.


Easy installation


The power supply adapter delivered with the camera provides the +5 VDC power supply required. The wireless connectivity removes the need for a network cable, however, an Ethernet compliant network cable can be connected if required. The WPS button simplifies the selection of a WiFi network and the network password setting.


Tamper and motion detection


A wide range of configuration options is available for alarms signalling camera tampering. A built-in algorithm for detecting movement in the video can also be used for alarm signalling.


Cloud-based services


The camera supports time-based or alarm-based JPEG posting to four different accounts. These accounts can address FTP servers or cloud-based storage facilities (for example, Dropbox). Video clips or JPEG images can also be exported to these accounts.


Alarms can be set up to trigger an e-mail or SMS notification so you are always aware of abnormal events.


Access Security


Password protection with three levels and 802.1x authentication is supported. To secure Web browser access, use HTTPS with a SSL certificate stored in the camera.


Complete viewing software


There are many ways to access the camera’s features: using a web browser, with the Bosch Video Management System, with the free-of-charge Bosch Video Client, with the video security mobile app, or via third-party software.


Video security App


The Bosch video security mobile App has been developed to enable Anywhere access to HD surveillance images allowing you to view live images from any location. The App is designed to give you complete control of all your cameras, from panning and tilting to zoom and focus functions. It’s like taking your control room with you.


This App, together with the separately available Bosch transcoder, will allow you to fully utilize our dynamic transcoding features so you can play back images even over low-bandwidth connections.


System integration


The camera conforms to the ONVIF Profile S specification. Compliance with this standard guarantees interoperability between network video products regardless of manufacturer.


Third-party integrators can easily access the internal feature set of the camera for integration into large projects.
