2. Product Overview
Key Features
Exceptional Images
The camera employs a 5MP Lumii sensor that quadruples sensitivity without blurring. The camera utilizes
Lumii technology to monitor the surveillance area in great detail in even the most difficult lighting conditions,
delivering crisp and detailed images that are perfect for object- and person-recognition. The camera’s high
resolution also enables it to provide larger overviews, increasing the size of the surveillance area without
affecting image resolution.
Smartfocus
A built-in nine-point focus indicator enables the camera to focus precisely and automatically on objects, relieving
users of the need to adjust the focus manually.
Powerful IR Illuminator
The powerful IR illuminator lights objects evenly, reducing image noise and storage requirements. The IR
illuminator activates automatically when the lighting dims to under 10 lux. In night mode, the illuminator enables
the camera to capture images at even 0 lux. To help minimize energy usage, the camera also comes equipped
with a high-power LED.
ICR Day/Night Switching
The camera incorporates a mechanical ICR filter to capture perfect pictures at any light level. The camera
switches between its day and night modes automatically depending on the lighting conditions, enabling it to
capture color video in even 0.3-lux conditions and black/white video in as little as 0 lux, ensuring crisp, clea r
images at all times. The camera’s megapixel resolution and mechanical ICR filter deliver sharp, detailed
captures and images of distant objects in even total darkness.
Vandal-Proof Housing Certified to IP66 and IP67
Certified to IP66 and IP67, the die-cast aluminum alloy housing protects the camera against extreme bad
weather and vandalism, making it perfect for outdoor surveillance.
SD Memory Card Storage
The camera is equipped with an SD card that enables round-the-clock monitori ng, ensuring that the camera
can store captured images even in the event that its network connection goes down. The cam era delivers
all-day surveillance and round-the-clock security.
