Bosch’s vision of a smart home, where
multiple intelligent cameras enable a
homeowner to be more aware of events
that occur inside and outside the home
through timely notifications and realtime
video viewing.
Increasingly, video surveillance has become a common feature in
homes or small retail outlets. Imagine a fully equipped home office,
a new large-screen HD TV, valuable paintings or, more importantly,
your children’s safety while you are out. The need for surveillance
in such areas is growing and consumers are looking for solutions
that balance both function and design that complement the interior

applications. The cameras bring with them professional surveillance
which mean clear images and accurate colors even in the dark or
under low-light conditions.
When it comes to installation, operation and maintenance, there is
a choice between the wireless or wired version. The wired version
is uses Power over Ethernet without the need for an additional
12 V adaptor; the wireless version uses a WiFi protected setup. Both

Noise Reduction (iDNR) which actively analyzes the contents of a
scene and reduces noise accordingly, providing clear images while
reducing bandwidth and storage by up to 30%.
The updated version of the storage
calculator is now available. Whether you are
designing a small analogue DVR solution,
a large enterprise IP video management
solution or need to find out how long you can record on
the SD card you have, this calculator will provide you
with a quick overview of your storage requirements.
Scan the QR code, save and install the file to your
computer.
What’s new in this version:
Multi language support.
Supports full screen mode.
Print out the calculation and add a project title to it.
The iDNR section explains this key Bosch technology that reduces bit rates and storage requirements;
directly correlating to savings in storage costs.
The calculator now works for both IP and Analog storage. Select the storage model you want to use or enter your recording requirements and let the calculator suggest the best suited solution for you.

Looks Do Matter: The New DINION IP 4000 and IP 5000 HD Cameras
The DINION IP 4000 and 5000 cameras from Bosch Security Systems combine the latest technology with outstanding aesthetic design. Both cameras
offer an attractive range of features with regard to the highest image quality, management of bit rate, and lowest storage requirements, as well as important audio capabilities, cloud-based services plus easy and cost-effective installation.
The cameras are available in two resolution versions: the DINION IP 4000 HD with 720p and the DINION IP 5000 HD with 1080p. The desired amount
of detail can be selected according to the intended application, while intelligent Dynamic Image Noise Reduction (iDNR) automatically adjusts the level
of noise reduction based on movement in the scene. This ensures crisp images and saves up to 50 percent on bit rate and thus memory requirements.
For its audio capabilities, the built-in microphone and two-way audio functionality turn these DINION IP cameras into even more effective security tools.
Easy installation and configuration are guaranteed by the cameras’ Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) functionality, as well as due to the preconfigured user
modes. For retail applications in particular, the cameras come with a direct monitor output, enabling a confrontation monitor to be directly connected
to the camera. It is therefore ideal for entrances and other situations where people need to be made aware of the presence of video surveillance.
The Bosch Dynamic Transcoding technology which enables smooth, instant access to HD video from
any location can be fully exploited in combination with the new DINION IP 4000 and 5000 cameras by
simply adding one of the Bosch DIVAR IP recording solutions or a Bosch VIDEOJET to the total Bosch
video surveillance solution.
