Bosch Security introduces LCD flat panel monitors

Bosch Security Systems is introducing a range of LCD flat panel high resolution monitors for use with analog video, digital video recorder (DVR) and PC applications.

The range will replace the company's current CRT monitor range in the CCTV market, and is being introduced alongside a similar range of LED flat panel monitors.

Based on industrial grade LCD panels, the monitors are available in 8.4inch and 10.4inch viewable area versions.

The monitors offer a maximum brightness of between 230 and 250 cd/m2, high color accuracy and consistency for easy viewing and interpretation of images, and a maximum contrast ratio between 500:1 and 600:1.

The panels refresh every 10 to 20 milliseconds, providing crisp, clear images with minimal smearing and image ghosting in fast motion video.

They also feature a wide range of horizontal and vertical viewing angles that provide comfortable, clear viewing, whether the monitors are placed on a desk or mounted on a wall or in a rack.

Long life fluorescent backlights help to avoid luminance degradation, enabling the monitors to maintain their brightness level over time.

This is an advantage over CRT-type monitors that become progressively dimmer with age.

The consistent brightness also contributes to the sharp display image, without the constant flickering that can be seen in some CRT monitors, which means they can be used for longer without eyestrain or excessive fatigue.

The monitors accommodate a wide range of signal sources, along with two composite BNC inputs and loop-through outputs, Y/C (S-video) and loop-through video and audio inputs, and an analog VGA input for DVR or PC applications.
