The HD 1080p infrared bullet from Bosch is a
professional surveillance camera that provides high
quality HD images for demanding security and
surveillance network requirements.
This robust bullet camera is a true day/night camera
offering excellent performance day or night.
System overview
iDNR reduces bandwidth and storage requirements
The camera uses intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction
(iDNR) which actively analyzes the contents of a scene
and reduces noise artifacts accordingly.
The low-noise image and the efficient H.264
compression technology provide clear images while
reducing bandwidth and storage by up to 30%
compared to other H.264 cameras. This results in
reduced-bandwidth streams that still retain a high
image quality and smooth motion. The camera
provides the most usable image possible by cleverly
optimizing the detail-to-bandwidth ratio.
Area-based encoding is another feature which reduces
bandwidth. Compression parameters for up to eight
user-definable regions can be set. This allows
uninteresting regions to be highly compressed, leaving
more bandwidth for important parts of the scene.
The average typical optimized bandwidth in kbits/s for
various image rates is shown in the table:
u 1080p resolution
u Fully configurable quad streaming
u Regions of interest and E-PTZ
IPS 1080p 720p 480p
30 1600 1200 600
15 1274 955 478
5 757 568 284
2 326 245 122
Built-in IR illuminator
The built-in infrared LEDs provides quality night time
monitoring with 25 m (82 ft) viewing distance in
darkness.
Outdoor bullet camera with varifocal lens
The robust aluminum housing provides high
installation flexibility. The camera resists both water
and dust ingress in tough environments and is rated to
IP66 (NEMA Type 4X) standards. The 3 to 10 mm
varifocal lens allows you to choose the coverage area
to best suit your application.
1080p resolution with multiple streams
The camera has a resolution of 1080p at 30 images per
second (ips). The innovative multi-streaming feature
delivers various H.264 streams together with an
M‑JPEG stream. These streams facilitate bandwidthefficient viewing and recording as well as integration
with third-party video management systems.

Regions of interest and E-PTZ
Regions of Interest (ROI) can be user defined. The
remote E-PTZ (Electronic Pan, Tilt and Zoom) controls
allow you to select specific areas of the parent image.
These regions produce separate streams for remote
viewing and recording. These streams, together with
the main stream, allow the operator to separately
monitor the most interesting part of a scene while still
retaining situational awareness.
Two-way audio and audio alarm
Two-way audio allows the operator to communicate
with visitors or intruders via an external audio line
input and output. 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.
Cloud-based facilities
The camera supports time-based or alarm-based JPEG
posting to four different accounts. These accounts can
address FTP servers or cloud-based storage facilities
(for example, Dropbox). Video clips or JPEG images
can also be exported to these accounts.
Alarms can be set up to trigger an e-mail or SMS
notification so you are always aware of abnormal
events.
Easy installation
Power for the camera can be supplied via a Powerover-Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) compliant network cable
connection. With this configuration, only a single cable
connection is required to view, power, and control the
camera. Using PoE makes installation easier and more
cost-effective, as cameras do not require a local power
source.
The camera can also be supplied with power from
+12 VDC power supplies. To increase system
reliability, the camera can be simultaneously
connected to both PoE and +12 VDC supplies.
Additionally, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can
be used, which will allow continuous operation, even
during a power failure. For trouble free network
cabling, the cameras support Auto-MDIX.
True day/night switching
The camera incorporates mechanical filter technology
for vivid daytime color and exceptional night-time
imaging while maintaining sharp focus under all
lighting conditions.
Access Security
Password protection with three levels and 802.1x
authentication is supported. To secure Web browser
access, use HTTPS with a SSL certificate stored in the
camera. The video and audio communication channels
can be independently AES encrypted with 128-bit keys
by installing the optional encryption site license.
Surveillance software
There are many ways to access the camera’s video
features: using a web browser, with the Bosch Video
Management System, with the Bosch Recording
System, with the supplied Bosch Video Client, or with
the video security mobile App.
The Bosch Video Client PC surveillance software offers
a user-friendly interface to support easy installation
and configuration, and is supplied completely free-ofcharge. It provides easy live viewing of multiple
cameras, playback, forensic search and export.
Video security App
The Bosch video security mobile App has been
developed to enable Anywhere access to HD
surveillance images allowing you to view live images
from any location. The App is designed to give you
complete control of all your cameras, from panning
and tilting to zoom and focus functions. It’s like taking
your control room with you.
This App, together with the separately available Bosch
transcoder, will allow you to fully utilize our dynamic
transcoding features so you can play back images even
over low-bandwidth connections.
System integration
Bosch IP standard definition and high definition
cameras, encoders and analytics work seamlessly with
a wide range of security software and recording
solutions from Bosch and other industry providers.
Through ONVIF conformance, the open availability of
Bosch video software development kits and a team
dedicated to special integration and support projects,
it is easy to manage Bosch video products within your
system design (for details on the Bosch Integration
Partner Program, visit ipp.boschsecurity.com).
