FAQ
What is the resolution of the ACTi B911 network camera?
The ACTi B911 captures video at 2-megapixel resolution, providing sufficient detail for identification purposes in surveillance applications. This resolution delivers clear imagery that supports both live monitoring and recorded evidence requirements.
Does this camera support both color and black-and-white video?
Yes, the B911 supports both color and monochrome (black-and-white) imaging. This dual capability ensures reliable performance across different lighting conditions, automatically adapting to provide optimal image quality whether in daylight or low-light environments.
What type of zoom does this network camera feature?
This camera includes a 10x optical zoom lens with a focal length range from 4.9mm to 49mm. Optical zoom maintains image quality throughout the zoom range, unlike digital zoom which can degrade resolution. This allows operators to capture both wide-angle views and detailed close-ups without moving the camera.
What video compression formats does the B911 support?
The camera supports both MJPEG and H.264 video compression formats. MJPEG provides high-quality individual frames ideal for detailed analysis, while H.264 offers efficient bandwidth utilization for streaming and storage optimization. This dual-format support gives system designers flexibility in balancing image quality and bandwidth requirements.
How is this network camera connected to the network?
The B911 uses wired connectivity via an RJ-45 network port. This provides stable, reliable network transmission without the potential interference issues associated with wireless connections. The wired approach ensures consistent performance for continuous surveillance applications.
Can this camera be managed remotely?
Yes, the B911 includes remote management capabilities, allowing security personnel to configure, monitor, and control the camera from a centralized location. This feature streamlines surveillance operations by enabling adjustments to settings like zoom, focus, and image parameters without physical access to the camera.
What connectivity or interface options are available?
Connectivity options include Wired, helping the product integrate into common office or home setups.
