8X8 CCTV Video Matrix Surveillance System Unit

Module Feature

8X8 CCTV system is a video matrix switching system with 8 camera signal inputs and 8 monitor outputs.

It routes any incoming camera video signal to any selected display channel, supporting manual switching, auto-sequencing and group switching modes. It works with analog CCTV cameras, coaxial cable transmission and CRT/LCD monitors. It can be expanded with alarm trigger function and keyboard controller, commonly deployed for perimeter security, production area monitoring and critical site visual inspection.

Working principle

Composite video signals from 8 cameras are fed into the matrix input ports.

Internal analog switching circuit connects selected input channel to assigned output port. Operators use control keyboard to switch viewing channels, or set automatic dwell sequence to cycle camera feeds on monitors. Alarm signal can trigger automatic pop-up of associated camera video.

Onboard components8-channel video matrix host, CCTV analog cameras, coaxial BNC cables, power adapters, monitor displays, control keyboard, alarm terminal block.

LED indicators

Front LEDs indicate power ready, selected input channel status, alarm trigger and video signal presence.

Hardware self‑diagnosis

Built-in supervision detects video signal loss and communication failure with control keyboard. Signal loss warning will show when camera cable is open or camera power fails.

Programming software

Matrix configuration utility, used for sequence dwell time setting, alarm linkage setup and channel naming.
