The Bosch AutoDome modular camera system is a
revolutionary new concept in dome cameras. The
entire AutoDome system is based on five
interchangeable modules: the Central Processing Unit
(CPU), camera, housing, communications, and power
supply. Simply swap one of the AutoDome’s
interchangeable modules and quickly upgrade from
analog to IP, color to day/night, or add motion
detection, and AutoTrack. Never before have you had
the ability to adapt a security system to your changing
needs this quickly or inexpensively.
The Bosch AutoDome also features a selection of
power supply and mounting accessories with clear or
tinted bubbles.
Interchangeable modules
Five interchangeable modules allow you to update
camera functionality quickly and cost-effectively. Using
common components lets you install a basic camera
system today and migrate to a more advanced version
tomorrow – without having to replace the entire dome,
thus protecting your initial investment.
By using the same housing components, all
installations have a consistent look, and observers
have no idea which type of camera (if any) is watching
over them. This unique, modular design also gives you
the flexibility to move cameras between different
housings when special coverage is needed, or as site
u 24 VAC, 120 VAC, and 230 VAC Power Supply Units
with an optional Fiber Optic Module
u Roof, Pipe, and Pendant Arm Mounting Systems
u Analog and IP Fiber Optic Communication Units
plan requirements change. For example, an 18x PTZ
camera over a specific area could easily be “hotswapped” to a 26x day/night without removing the
power. AutoDome’s Ethernet communications module
allows you to add IP functionality while maintaining
connectivity to existing analog inputs and outputs.

interline CCD with Bosch’s unique 15-bit Dinion digital
imaging technology to deliver a 32-fold sensitivity
improvement and a full 540 horizontal lines of
resolution. Available in color and day/night versions,
these cameras incorporate a number of features not
found in other fixed dome cameras.
High-performance 18x PTZ Color Camera
The high-performance 18x PTZ color cameras have a
1/4-inch color CCD. With 470/480 TVL (NTSC/PAL)
horizontal resolution and sensitivity down to 0.5 lux,
this camera offers exceptional performance at an
affordable price. A rugged motor with fewer moving
parts mean that this camera uses less power and is
extremely reliable, making it ideal for high-usage
applications.
High-performance 18x and 26x PTZ Day/Night
Camera
The high-performance PTZ day/night cameras have
470/480 TVL (NTSC/PAL) horizontal resolution. These
cameras are available with either an 18x or a 26x
optical zoom lens, and all cameras offer a full 12x
digital zoom. The AutoScaling (proportional zoom) and
AutoPivot (automatically rotates and flips the camera)
features ensure optimal control.
High-performance 36x PTZ Day/Night Camera
Bosch offers the industry-leading 36x optical zoom
lens with a full 12x digital zoom. The 36x camera
provides a full 540 TVL of horizontal resolution for
outstanding clarity and image detail. The 36x camera
also incorporates an advanced backlight compensation
technology that dramatically improves the dynamic
range by 128 times, resulting in clear image
reproduction in extreme high-contrast environments.
Housing Modules
All housings feature recessed screws and latches for
increased tamper resistance.
AutoDome pendant housings (indoor and outdoor) are
rated to provide IP 66 protection. In addition, the
pendant housings come equipped with a low-impact,
high-resolution acrylic bubble for enhanced image
clarity
AutoDome in-ceiling housings are rated IK 8
(IEC 62262). These housings feature an impactresistant polycarbonate Rugged Bubble to protect your
camera from vandalism. The Rugged Bubble can
withstand impacts equivalent to a 4.5 kg (10 lb)
weight dropped from a height of 3 m (10 ft).
Outdoor EnviroDome housings provide an operating
temperature range down to -40°C (-40°F). The optional
“XT” extreme temperature kit allows an AutoDome to
operate in temperatures down to -60°C (-76°F),
ensuring reliable operation in even the harshest
environments.
The Pressurized Environmental Housing is rated to
provide IP 67 protection for a VG4 Series AutoDome
®
Modular Camera System from the elements, both
natural and manmade. It is the ideal surveillance
solution for applications that require frequent washdown, including traffic, transit, bridges, tunnels and
coastal installations where salt, moisture, dust, insects
and fumes threaten the long-term operation of the
camera.
Communications Modules
Fixed Communications Module
The Fixed Communications Module (standard on the
AutoDome 100 Series) supports a variety of standard
video and data transmission methods, including Bilinx
(over coax and UTP) remote control, configuration,
and firmware updates can also be performed over
these cables, offering you unparalleled control of your
cameras.

Power Supplies
Bosch offers a variety of power supply units that are
available with 24 VAC, 120 VAC, or 230 VAC
transformers, come with an optional analog,
multimode Fiber Optic video transmitter/data receiver
module, and are NEMA-rated.
Accessories
Fiber Optic Kits
The VG4-SFIBER-MM (multimode) is an analog, fiber
optic conversion kit for use with VG4 Series
AutoDomes using either the Fixed or the Standard
Communications Modules. This module is a video
transmitter/data receiver modules designed to be
mounted directly into a VG4 AutoDome power supply
box.
The VG4-SFPSCKT is a unique media converter module
for use with VG4 series AutoDomes incorporating the
Ethernet (TCP/IP) Communications Module. This
media converter module is designed to accept any of
the 10/100 Mbps SFP modules described below.
The media converter module along with the SFP
module is user installed directly into the AutoDome's
power supply box to provide an integrated fiber optic
solution.
Mounts
Bosch offers three mounting options for the
AutoDomes: roof, pipe, or pendant arm mounts. The
pendant arm mounts come with a connected power
supply unit. In addition, Bosch offers an accessory to
mount a unit in an upright position on a flat surface.
Bubbles
All housings feature recessed screws and latches for
increased tamper resistance. AutoDome in-ceiling
models feature an impact-resistant rugged
polycarbonate bubble to protect your camera from
vandalism. Designed to meet stringent strength
standards without compromising optical clarity, the
Rugged Bubble can withstand impacts equivalent to a
10 pound (4.5 kilograms) weight dropped from a
height of 10 feet (3 meters). AutoDome pendant
cameras come equipped with a low-impact, highresolution acrylic bubble for enhanced image clarity,
but can easily be upgraded to the Rugged Bubble
when needed.
Both the rugged polycarbonate and the high-resolution
acrylic bubbles are available in clear, tinted (smoke),
gold and chrome. The clear bubble offers maximum
sensitivity by allowing as much light through as
possible. The tinted, gold and chrome bubbles offer
covertness by making it difficult to see the direction
the camera is looking from the outside.
