scope:

This Part of IEC 62676 specifies physical, electrical and software interface (non-IP) specifications of analog and digital video interface in video surveillance systems (so far called CCTV) applications. Video interfaces are used both for connection and transmission of surveillance video, audio and control signals. Through video interfaces, video surveillance systems can be put together by connecting various components such as image capturing devices, image handling devices, etc. This International Standard ensures interoperability among various video surveillance components.

This International Standard applies strictly to Video Surveillance Systems. This standard is based on broadcast television standards and other standards, and it defines the minimum requirements for analog and digital video interfaces to meet VSS's requirements, interoperability and de facto practice.
