Product Features
Technical Overview
This camera leverages a 1-inch Exmor R CMOS sensor to achieve high sensitivity and low noise, enabling 8-megapixel resolution (3840 x 2160) for 4K surveillance. The 12x optical zoom lens, with a focal range of 9.3 mm to 111.6 mm and apertures from f/2.8 to f/4.5, provides flexible framing without digital interpolation. Exposure control spans from 1/10000 to 1 second, accommodating fast motion and low-light scenarios.
Network connectivity is handled via Fast Ethernet with support for IPv4, IPv6, and a comprehensive suite of protocols including HTTP, HTTPS, RTSP, and SNMP for integration into existing security infrastructures. Power options include 24 V AC or Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation in diverse settings. The camera's environmental resilience is underscored by its -40°F to 149°F operating range and 100% humidity tolerance.

Deployment / Use Cases
This camera is suited for scenarios requiring detailed, reliable surveillance over wide areas. Its PTZ capabilities and zoom range make it ideal for monitoring large outdoor spaces such as campuses, transportation hubs, and critical infrastructure, where operators need to pan, tilt, and zoom to track activity without deploying multiple fixed cameras.
In industrial settings, the IP68 rating protects against moisture and dust, while the IK10 impact resistance secures it against tampering. For commercial applications like retail or parking facilities, the 4K resolution aids in license plate and facial recognition. The camera's compliance with TAA and environmental standards like RoHS and WEEE also meets regulatory requirements for public-sector and eco-conscious projects.
Perimeter Security
Deploy along fences or entry points to detect intrusions with clear zoomed-in footage, leveraging the wide temperature range for year-round operation.
Urban Surveillance
Use in city centers or public venues to monitor crowds and incidents, with H.265 compression minimizing bandwidth usage on network backbones.
Physical Profile
