Features and Benefits

This is a cutting edge network video surveillance camera. It can capture, compress and transmit real time video in excellent quality (8 FPS 4Megapixel, 2032 x 1920). This camera is your best choice to build an intelligent IP surveillance system.

Adaptive Profile With the innovative embedded Image Signal Processor (ISP), this camera responds to changing lighting condition with customized algorithm. This allows for clear image with very little noise at night.

H.264/MPEG-4/MJPEG Triple Codec Dual Streaming This device supports 3 compression formats, H.264, MPEG-4 and MJPEG. It brings superior image quality at 8 frames per second up to resolution of 2032 x 1920 pixels, and offers up to 15 frames per second in Full HD 1080p (!920 x 1080). In 720p (1280 x 720) and VGA resolution (640 x 480) the device reaches 30 frames per second.

Rugged Vandal-Proof Construction withstands all kinds of abuse. Special engineer polymer clear dome shell protects against brute force impact. It is extremely durable against any tampering intruder. IP66 construction isolates electronics against the elements. Rain, sleet or snow, nothing goes through. Temperature control ensures cold-start capability for use in the worst of weathers.

ExDR (Extreme Dynamic Range) Extreme Dynamic Range technology is the most advanced approach of improving the dynamic range of the camera. While many other WDR technologies enhance the dynamic range while producing noise, blur edges of objects and untrue colors, ExDR is designed to improve the dynamic range while keeping the true colors, sharp edges of objects and free from noise.

P Iris Control With optional P Iris Lens, this camera automatically adjusts incoming light levels to achieve the best video performance. Wildly fluctuating outdoor lighting condition is no longer an issue with your video quality.
