High Definition (HD-SDI) CCTV

HD-SDI has many benefits, firstly it provides a better quality picture, and is easy to set up. The picture is of noticeable difference, as it is defined and clear, making it much better for identification. It uses coaxial cable, which means that if you have an old analogue system at the moment, then you won’t have to reinstall any cable to upgrade to HD.

We have a range of different products, from recorders to cameras, so upgrading your surveillance system or installing a new HD-SDI one is easy and inexpensive.

1080P High Definition CCTV

We started offering HD SDI in 2012, making us one of the first sellers of such equipment in the UK. We can not emphasise enough how impressed we are with the huge jump in quality from Standard definition to High Definition HD. Seeing really is believing in this case - trying to explain in words does not do it justice - So we invite any customers considering purchasing a HD system, to give us a call and book in to visit our warehouse and see the kind of quality you can expect. We're confident you will be amazed!

4X Better than Analogue

SD CCTV is about 500,000 pixels - 1080P is just over 2 Million pixels! Yes that's 4 times more pixels - that means 4 times more detail of what ever the HD Cameras look at, 4 times more likely to get facial recognition, 4 times more likely to read number plates and so much more.

To put it another way - if you had a standard definition camera, and had facial recognition of a person located 5 metres away from the camera, a high definition camera would give you the same quality image of the person at 20 metres away!

HD is more cost effective?

Obviously HD is more expensive, but if you consider the most important thing about CCTV is the image - lets look at the cost from a pixel point of view.

If a 960H (SD) kit costs £282 and has 500,000 pixels - then a HD SDI kit costs £719 and has over 2,000,000 pixels - you are actually paying less per pixel with the HD system. Infact the HD kit works out over 30% more cost effective than the analogue system.

Our HD SDI resolutions

Although HD systems are produced in both 720P and 1080P - here at JMC we only sell the 1080P models - offering our customers the very best Systems in the UK!

What do you need for a HD-SDI System

As with standard definition, to put together your own HD System you will need a HD-SDI Recorder, along with HD-SDI Cameras, you will need to join them together with RG59 Coax Cable and of course you will need Power Supplies for the cameras - Finally you will need a Monitor (we of recommend using a 1080P Monitor - or you wont be seeing the true quality of the images). Of course depending on what cable you choose, you may need connectors also.

Or of course you can buy a complete HD-SDI System from us.
