This chapter contains the following sections:
• Overview, page 1
Introduction
• Key Features, page 1
Overview
Honeywell’s Performance Series IP cameras integrate traditional camera and network video
technology, combining video data collection and transmission. These flexible, fully featured
cameras are the ideal choice for a wide range of indoor and outdoor surveillance applications.
Plug-and-play compatible with Honeywell 4/8/16-channel Performance Series Embedded
NVRs, the cameras offer 2, 4 or 8 megapixel resolution at up to 30 frames per second and use
video compression technology to save bandwidth and storage while ensuring maximum video
quality. All the cameras are True Day/Night with intelligent IR capability, providing up to 200 ft
(60 m) of illumination in low-light and nighttime scenes. Also, all the cameras support WDR
function at up to 120 dB.
Each camera comes with configurable motion detection and camera tamper detection and
supports up to 4 user-defined privacy mask areas. In addition to a 12 VDC adapter, all the
cameras support Power over Ethernet (PoE), eliminating the need for a separate power supply
and associated wiring. Select models also support local video storage on microSDHC cards
(up to 128 GB) when network service is interrupted.
You can monitor Performance Series IP cameras from anywhere, at any time, using the free
HonView Touch mobile app for both Apple and Android smartphones and tablets.
