The HD 1080p and 5MP vandal-resistant microdome
cameras from Bosch are professional surveillance
cameras that provide high quality HD and MP images
for demanding security and surveillance network
requirements. The camera comes with a choice of
lenses including an ultra-wide angle lens which
provides outstanding performance without the need
for de-warping software.
The cameras are available in 1080p and 5MP versions
and there is a special version designed for Interior
Vehicle Mounting (IVM) using an M12 connector.
System overview
Compact and stylish, vandal-resistant design
Ideal for indoor or outdoor use, the compact aesthetic
design is suitable for installations where housing size
and appearance are important. The cast-aluminum
housing, polycarbonate window, and hardened inner
liner can withstand the equivalent of 55 kg (120 lbs) of
force (IK08). The camera is protected against water
and dust to IP66 standards. Mounting options are
numerous, including surface, wall, and suspendedceiling mounting.

u FTP, Dropbox and e-mail alarms
Functions
Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction reduces
bandwidth and storage requirements
The camera uses Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction
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 50%
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
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:

1080p or 5MP resolutions with multiple streams
The camera is available in a 1080p resolution version
at 30 images per second (ips) or a 5MP resolution
version at 12 ips. The innovative multi-streaming
feature delivers various H.264 streams together with
an M‑JPEG stream. These streams facilitate
bandwidth-efficient 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.
Edge recording
The MicroSD card slot supports up to 2 TB of storage
capacity. A microSD card can be used for local alarm
recording. Pre-alarm recording in RAM reduces
recording bandwidth on the network, or — if microSD
card recording is used — extends the effective life of
the storage medium.
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 services
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 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 costeffective, as cameras do not require a local power
source.
The camera can also be supplied with power from
+12 VDC/24 VAC power supplies. To increase system
reliability, the camera can be simultaneously
connected to both PoE and +12 VDC/24 VAC supplies.
Additionally, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can
be used, which will allow continuous operation, even
during a power failure.
3-axis adjustment
The 3-axis adjustment allows easy installation on a
wall or a ceiling with a precise field of view.
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.
Complete viewing software
There are many ways to access the camera’s features:
using a web browser, with the Bosch Video
Management System, with the free-of-charge
Bosch Video Client, with the video security mobile
app, or via third-party software.
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
The camera conforms to the ONVIF Profile S
specification. This guarantees interoperability between
network video products regardless of manufacturer.
Third-party integrators can easily access the internal
feature set of the camera for integration into large
projects. Visit the Bosch Integration Partner Program
(IPP) website (ipp.boschsecurity.com) for more
information.
