BS EN 62676-2-1 introduces general requirements on video transmission. BS EN 62676-2-1 introduces an IP network interface for devices in surveillance applications. BS EN 62676-2-1 specifies a network protocol for the full interoperability of video devices. On top of the basic layers protocols are defined to accomplish the full interoperability of video devices. In surveillance applications IP video devices have to use standardized protocols to accomplish following functionality: video streaming, stream control, event handling, discovery, capability description, device management, PTZ control, auxiliaries and other functions. The aim of BS EN 62676-1-2 is to define the minimum performance requirements on video transmission for security applications in IP networks.
BS EN 62676-2-1 on video surveillance systems is useful for:
The purpose of the transmission system in a video surveillance system installation is to provide reliable transmission of video signals between the different types of Video
Surveillance System (VSS) so far called CCTV equipment in security, safety and monitoring applications. BS EN 62676-2-1 defined a common framework for video surveillance transmission in order to achieve interoperability between products. BS EN 62676-2-1 also define protocol requirements to be fulfilled by any high-level IP video device interface.
