As of now, high definition (HD) is the real thing for users to identify objects or individuals in a critical scene. However, the current analog systems, though still occupying a significant market segment, can hardly achieve HD picture quality. Though HD-SDI provides 1080p resolution, the video transmission distance is still limited at up to 100 meters. IP, on the other hand, providing another choice for HD; however, is still more pricy than analog. Meanwhile, for those who get used to using the existing analog security equipment, it is also difficult for them to immediately adapt to the IP technology.
All of these have led the companies to come up with new ideas and solutions to enable HD images while maintaining the same user habits over existing coaxial cable deployment. The Hikvision Turbo HD Analog solution is just the answer!
HD Performance at 1080P/720P
The Hikvision Turbo HD product family is based on the HDTVI (High Definition Transport Video Interface) technology and is ideally suited for upgrading existing standard definition systems at low cost. It retains the ease-of-use of an analog system while offering up to 1080P HD video output.
In comparison with a traditional analog system (normally with analog cameras consisting of lenses, image sensors and image processors, and back-end devices receiving image signals for encoding.), the Turbo HD analog solution includes two additional chips -- a transmitting chip (TX) and a receiving chip (RX) -- for front-end Turbo HD cameras and back-end DVRs separately. With these two chips, the Turbo HD analog solution allows much higher video image resolution and longer distance for HD video transmission.

Open HDTVI Technology for 3rd-Party Device Compatibility
All Hikvision Turbo HD products adhere to the HDTVI open standard, which guarantees trouble-free connections to other HDTVI-compliant cameras and DVRs. The Hikvision Turbo HD DVRs can also connect with traditional SD analog cameras, and all Hikvision Turbo HD cameras can access third-party DVRs equipped with HDTVI technology from other manufacturers. 
Tribrid System - Futureproof by Combining Turbo HD, Analog, and IP
The Hikvision Turbo HD DVR offers simultaneous connections to IP, analog, and Turbo HD cameras, and can automatically detect incoming signals and record accordingly. This means that existing systems can be upgraded simply by replacing the current cameras and DVRs, while new areas may be covered with the addition of IP network cameras. Alternatively, users can also keep the existing SD cameras and only replace the necessary surveillance points to HD.
Up to 500m HD Transmission via Coaxial Cable
Hikvision HDTVI technology guarantees up to 500 meters of high-quality and reliable transmission at HD resolution via coaxial cable. Conventional analog solutions can hardly achieve this resolution. Neither does the HD-SDI solution, which has long distance limitations. This makes Hikvision Turbo HD a perfect solution to fit all requirements. Furthermore, the Turbo HD Analog solution even supports UTC for remote setup and configuration and enables OSD menu and PTZ control via coaxial cable. Users no longer have to go to the camera to make changes. This allows for much faster and easier camera installation and management.
Multiple Product Styles and Rich Features
In the Turbo HD portfolio, Hikvision now offers a comprehensive, 32-strong range of Hikvision DVRs and 720P/1080P cameras, including Bullet, Dome, PTZ Dome, and Turret units for indoor and outdoor use, offering a bevy of excellent features such as digital noise reduction, ultra-low light illumination, smart IR, vari-focal lens, IP66 weatherproof, and vandal proof housing. Features such as VQD (Video Quality Detection), low bit rate on video storage, line crossing detection, and intrusion detection will also be available in the coming product versions.
A Total Security Solution
Last but not least, Hikvision also offers its video management software including iVMS-5200 Professional/Enterprise, iVMS-4200 client software, and iVMS- 4500 mobile phone software to further provide an easy-to-use, highly reliable, and feature-rich customer platform, making a total solution for any security needs. Hikvision iVMS-5200 Professional/Enterprise Software offers open integration, multiple storage and database solutions, video analytics, and other powerful functionalities for professional applications.
According to Keen Yao, International Marketing Director of Hikvision, “Turbo HD is a hi-tech tour-de-force in zero-latency, long distance HD-over-coax that demonstrates our commitment to pushing the boundaries of CCTV technology. Until recently, the only option for HD resolution was the wholesale adoption of IP cameras and their associated technology. Now, with the launch of the Hikvision Turbo HD Analog solution, users can enjoy 720P/1080P without even upgrading to IP or even replacing their existing cabling structure.”
