At VGA resolution, the unit can display six full-size images at any one time. The NSR-1200/4T has two analogue RGB and two HDMI monitor output connectors on the rear panel. You can use two out of the four outputs simultaneously in any combination to meet your system requirements.

With a limited storage capacity, for example, you can monitor live video via Motion JPEG at frame rates as high as 30 fps, and record video via MPEG-4 at frame rates as low as 5 fps, saving on storage without compromising image quality. The unit also incorporate Sony's DEPA technology. Used in conjunction with DEPA-enabled network cameras from Sony, this intelligent video analytics system helps identify critical events more easily, and provides a streamlined workflow for your video security operations. You can search, preview, and playback recorded video with Sony's intuitive user interface.
