CCTV camera systems often use devices that enhance security. Microphones should be distinguished from such devices. A microphone connected to the camera complements the picture of what is happening in the observation area. This article will focus on the microphones of the "Shorokh" company, their characteristics, model range and connection diagram.

General characteristics

The model range of the manufacturer includes 8 devices. Models are distinguished according to the following main criteria.:

  • automatic gain control (AGC);
  • range of distance acoustics;
  • ultra-high sensitivity level (UHF).

All devices in the range have common characteristics:

  • power supply 5-12 V;
  • distance of distance up to 7 m;
  • frequency up to 7 KHz.

It should be noted that "Shorokh" microphones have versatility in operation... Depending on the model, the microphones can be used in any noisy company or soundproof room. Devices are also installed to monitor street surveillance. The presence of AGC makes it possible to record high quality sound without signal loss, regardless of the degree of sound in the room where the observation is taking place.

The devices have miniature dimensions. Therefore, microphones can be installed even in hard-to-reach places.

Model overview

Miniature microphone "Shorokh-1"

Audio equipment has high-quality sound transmission, high sensitivity and low noise of its amplifier. It is worth noting the admissibility of connecting VCRs and video monitors to the LF input for audio recording. Also "Shorokh-1" will provide high-quality sound on standard video surveillance monitors. Device properties:

  • distance of distance up to 5 m;
  • signal level output 0.25 V;
  • supply voltage 7.5-12 V.

The main features of the device are low power consumption, small size and nickel housing, which prevents interference and unnecessary noise. Of the minuses, the lack of AGC is noted.

Microphone "Shorokh-7"

The main characteristics of the active device:

  • distance of distance up to 7 m;
  • signal level 0.25V;
  • the presence of AGC;
  • Nickel-plated aluminum housing that prevents unnecessary interference.

Thanks to the presence of AGC, the device maintains a high level of signal output regardless of the sound in the monitored area. Also, the presence of AGC assumes the operation of the model in soundproof rooms.

Like the previous model, "Shorokh-7" provides high-quality sound with output to various video surveillance devices.

"Rustle-8"

The device is practically no different from the "Rustle-7". The main difference between the model is the absence of noise from the built-in amplifier, as well as high sensitivity. Of the characteristics, it is worth noting the acoustic range of up to 10 m.

"Rustle-12"

Directional model. Its properties:

  • range up to 15 m;
  • signal level 0.6 V;
  • line length 300 m;
  • power supply 7-14.8 V.

The main features of the device are UHF and the absence of amplifier noise.

Despite the fact that the model is not equipped with AGC, the device is in high demand. The audio microphone is used for monitoring in noisy areas, as well as outdoors. The model records high quality audio and connects to the LF input of various monitors and tape recorders. Also available the ability to connect to computer boards via a standard audio input.

"Rustle-13"

The active microphone has the following features:

  • distance of acoustics distance up to 15 m;
  • output voltage level 0.6V;
  • high degree of protection against noise;
  • power supply 7.5-14.8V.

Directional microphone has the UHF function. The metal casing provides protection against various types of interference, including interference from mobile devices, TV towers, walkie-talkies. The device has the ability to connect to any video surveillance equipment, has supersensitivity and minimal amplifier noise.

A distinctive feature of the model from all previous ones is the presence of adjustment of the output sound signal. Also, the device can be used with computer boards and Euclid boards.

How to choose?

The choice of an audio recording device should be based on the upcoming tasks that this device will perform. However, there are general criteria for choosing a microphone.

  1. Sensitivity... It is believed that the higher the sensitivity, the better. This is not true. A device that is too sensitive can pick up any interference. Low sensitivity is not a good choice either. The device may simply not recognize faint sounds. Manufacturers assure that by pairing the impedance of the pickup and the performance of the amplifier system, the microphone will give an excellent result.
  2. Focus... Directional devices are selected based on the distance to the monitored area. As a rule, the manufacturer indicates the characteristics of the direction on the packaging of the goods.
  3. Dimensions (edit)... The sound quality and frequency range directly depends on the size of the membrane. If you want to get a good result of surround audio, you should stop your attention on models with large dimensions.

When choosing a device for the street, it is necessary to take into account the degree of protection from the external environment. Due to the amount of noise for outdoor cameras or DVR cameras, only directional type devices are selected.

How to connect?

Small audio microphones have red, black and yellow wires. Where red is voltage, black is ground, yellow is audio. To connect an audio microphone, use a 3.5 mm jack or RCA plug. The wire is soldered to the plug. Connect the + 12V red wire to the (+) power supply. A blue conductor or minus (common) is connected to the outer element of the connector and to the (-) power supply terminal. The yellow audio cable is connected to the main terminal. The power source is the power supply unit to which the video surveillance device is connected.

Users are often asked about the type of cable. Experts recommend using a coaxial cable when connecting microphones to cameras. The range of the surveillance area determines which type of cable will be used. At a range of acoustics up to 300 m, a ShVEV flexible cable with a cross section of 3x0.12 is used. With an acoustic range of 300 to 1000 m (for indoor use), the KVK / 2x0.5 cable is suitable. The range from 300 to 1000 m (outdoors) implies the use of KBK / 2x0.75.

The coaxial cable connection diagram is as follows.

  1. First, connect the red wire to the (+) power supply + 12V.
  2. Then the blue conductor (minus) of the microphone is connected to the (-) blue cord, on to the power supply and then parallel to the braid of the coaxial wire and to the outer part of the connector. These actions must be performed at the same time.

When connecting a microphone using the following methods the polarity must be remembered. If the microphone needs to be connected to the speakers of the computer, then the connection is made through the 3.5 mm input. The output voltage is sufficient to connect the microphone to both speakers and any other device. The Shorokh lineup is represented by devices that can provide a high level of security and high-quality sound recording.

It must also be remembered that when connecting, you should adhere to the connection diagram and observe safety rules.
