Security Networks

BIRMINGHAM, England, May 11 /PRNewswire/ -- IFSEC 2009 -- Matrox Graphics, the
leading manufacturer of specialized graphics solutions, today announced the
availability of the Matrox VDA-1164 for workstations running video management
system (VMS) software. The new Video Decoding Accelerator (VDA) supports
simultaneous decoding of up to 16 D1 video streams from a wide variety of
cameras and codecs, while flawlessly displaying all streams at full frame rate
on up to four high-definition monitors.

"The Matrox VDA-1164 eliminates the workstation decoding bottleneck by
completely offloading the video decoding burden from the host CPU," says Alain
Thiffault, Business Development Manager, Matrox Graphics Inc. "By doing so,
single-seat surveillance systems or large-scale IP security network operator
stations can run sophisticated applications while meeting the ever-increasing
demand for more camera streams, higher frame rates, and more complex codecs."

Matrox Graphics will be demonstrating the VDA-1164 and other advanced
multi-display solutions at IFSEC 2009 from May 11-14th at NEC Birmingham,
United Kingdom, Stand F130, Hall 4.
