What is the resolution of an IP camera measured in CIF?

256 x 192
352 x 240
640 x 480
800 x 600

The correct answer is: 352 x 240

The resolution of an IP camera measured in CIF (Common Intermediate Format) is indeed 352 x 240 pixels. CIF is a standard used primarily in video encoding that specifies a resolution, which is often utilized in surveillance systems and video conferencing applications. This resolution is half the size of the broader concept of 4CIF, which measures 704 x 480 pixels. CIF provides adequate image quality for monitoring while keeping bandwidth and storage requirements reasonable, making it a common choice for various surveillance applications. The other resolutions listed correspond to different formats: 256 x 192 is a lower resolution often referred to as QCIF, which stands for Quarter CIF; 640 x 480 is known as VGA (Video Graphics Array); and 800 x 600 refers to SVGA (Super VGA). While these formats may be useful in various contexts, they do not align with the CIF standard relevant to the question. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for anyone working in healthcare security and safety, especially when it comes to evaluating video surveillance options.
