Product Features
Technical Overview
This camera utilizes a 1/2.8" CMOS image sensor paired with a fixed 2.8mm M12-mount lens featuring an f/1.6 maximum aperture. The wide 98° field of view provides extensive coverage, minimizing blind spots in monitored areas. Video is encoded using H.265, H.264, and Motion JPEG formats, offering flexibility for bandwidth management and storage optimization.
Network connectivity is handled via Fast Ethernet with an RJ-45 port, supporting a comprehensive suite of protocols including SNMP, HTTP/HTTPS, IPv4/IPv6, TCP/IP, RTSP, and more. Remote management capabilities allow administrators to configure and monitor the camera from any location. Onboard storage via memory card adds local recording redundancy.
This section brings together practical product details such as HD Recording, Night Vision, Night Vision Distance, Image Sensor Type, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

FAQ
What is the resolution and video quality of this camera?
The Arecont Vision AV5856DNIR-F captures 5-megapixel video at a maximum resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels and a frame rate of 30 frames per second. This high resolution ensures clear, detailed imagery suitable for identifying faces, license plates, or other critical details in surveillance footage. Video is encoded using H.265, H.264, and Motion JPEG formats, providing flexibility for bandwidth management and storage efficiency.
How does the night vision perform?
Night vision is provided by three built-in infrared LEDs that illuminate up to 50 feet (15.24 meters) in total darkness. The camera features a mechanical IR cut filter for true day/night functionality, automatically switching between color and monochrome modes. This ensures optimal image quality in low-light conditions without requiring external lighting.
Is this camera suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the camera is rated IP66 for ingress protection against dust and water jets, and IK10 for impact resistance up to 20 joules. It operates in temperatures from -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C) and up to 90% humidity. These ratings make it durable for outdoor installations or harsh indoor environments like warehouses or parking garages.
What power source does the camera require?
The camera is powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE), which delivers both data and electrical power through a single Ethernet cable. This simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate power outlet near the camera, reducing wiring complexity and costs. It uses standard IEEE 802.3af or similar PoE injectors or switches.
What mounting options are available?
The camera supports flush mounting, board mounting, and ceiling mounting, offering flexibility for various installation scenarios. Its micro dome form factor and white color provide a discreet appearance. The compact size (3.10" height, 4" diameter) and lightweight design (15.17 oz) facilitate secure attachment to surfaces without requiring heavy-duty supports.
Does this camera include video analytics features?
Yes, on-camera video analytics include motion detection, privacy masking, and multi-view streaming. Additional features like CorridorView™ allow 90° image rotation for better coverage in hallways, while SNAPstream+™ reduces bandwidth usage without impacting image quality. These analytics enable smarter monitoring and efficient use of network and storage resources.
What storage is included?
The system includes Memory Card of storage for applications, files, and everyday business data.
