Chapter 2 - Vandal Dome Network Camera
Overview

The VANDAL DOME SERIES is a full-featured, 3-axis, fixed-dome, network camera.
With a megapixel progressive sensor and built-in IR-cut filter/ IR illuminator LEDs/
Auto Light sensor, it can provide 24-hour, indoor surveillance. The VANDAL DOME
SERIES features a wide-angle and vari-focal lens, which offers wide view coverage of
all angles.

The VANDAL DOME SERIES is designed to provide end users with high quality video
feed for an easily accessible security system. The embedded high performance
image sensor and CPU allow for each camera to stream real time, high resolution
video at 30 fps. It can transmit video using many codec compression options,
including MPEG-4/MJPEG/H.264, which reduce bandwidth and storage requirements
without compromising image quality. For easy viewing of the video feed, users can
view the live feed from anywhere through internet browsers or 3G portable devices.

Installation is simplified by the added support for Power over Ethernet which enables
each camera to receive power through the same cable as for data transmission. The
DI/DO function allows users to connect the VANDAL DOME SERIES to external alarm
and sensor devices for added security protection.

Users do not have to worry about their camera as its vandal proof enclosure protects it
from damage caused by vandalism or harsh environments. With an IP66 certified
enclosure, the VANDAL DOME SERIES is not only weather proof, but also dust and
rust resistant. By utilizing a built-in industrial fan and heater, it can perform well in
extreme temperatures.

With the included EasyConfig installation software, this series offers end-users easy
installation without the need for a strong technical background. The 3-axis
mechanical design makes the VANDAL DOME SERIES the perfect security camera
for any school, bank, or corporate office surveillance system.
