The Bosch NDC-255-P and NDC-225-P IP dome cameras are
ready-to-use, complete network video surveillance systems
inside a compact camera. This camera brings Bosch’s high­performance technology into the realm of small office and
retail businesses by offering a cost-effective solution for a
broad range of applications.

To use the camera as a stand-alone video surveillance
system, simply take it out of the box, assemble it according
to the quick installation guide, start it and walk away – it’s
already recording. In this mode, no additional equipment is
required.

For medium-to-large-scale or growing systems, the camera
easily integrates with the Bosch Divar 700 Series recorder.
It uses H.264 compression technology to give you clear
images while reducing bandwidth and storage by up to 30%.

Functions

Best-in-class image performance

The camera delivers the clearest images and most accurate
colors within its class. Progressive scan ensures moving
objects are always sharp.

Tri-streaming video

Tri-streaming allows a data stream to be encoded
simultaneously according to three different, individually
customized settings. Two types of streams can serve
different purposes. For example, use H.264 stream for local
recording and viewing, and the M-JPEG stream to provide
compatibility with legacy DVRs.

Efficient recording

A removable microSD/SDHC card offers edge recording
inside the IP dome camera. This card not only saves network
bandwidth but also reduces the requirement for a high­capacity hard disk or DVR. When used with a microSD/
SDHC card, the camera is a complete, self-contained
surveillance system without the need for additional
equipment.

The camera can also be used with an iSCSI server
connected via the network to store long-term recordings.

16-channel PC surveillance software

The bundled PC surveillance software offers a user-friendly
interface to support easy installation and configuration. A
wizard allows the configuration of multiple cameras
simultaneously using an auto detection device. Multiple
cameras can be monitored in one screen and video clips on
microSD/SDHC card can be archived, searched, and
exported in a single application.

mm (in)

ONVIF 1.0 compliant

The latest Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF)
standard ensures compatibility with other surveillance
products. This will contribute to a reduction in future
upgrade or migration costs.

Two-way audio and audio alarm

Two-way audio allows remote users to listen in on an area
and communicate messages to visitors or intruders via an
external loudspeaker (not included). Audio detection can
be used to generate an alarm, if needed.

Tamper and motion detection

A wide range of configuration options is available for alarms
signaling camera tampering. A built-in algorithm for
detecting movement in the video can also be used for alarm
signaling.

Power-over-Ethernet

Power for the camera can be supplied via a Power-over­Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) compliant network cable
connection. With this configuration, only a single cable
connection is required to view, power, and control the
camera.
