Product Features
Technical Overview
This camera captures video at a maximum resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, providing 2K clarity that enhances identification of subjects and details. The 1/3" CMOS sensor delivers efficient power consumption and high-definition video output, supporting real-time surveillance with minimal latency. Video is encoded in H.265, H.264, or MJPEG formats, allowing administrators to balance quality and bandwidth based on network constraints.
Exposure control ranges from 1/100,000 second to 1/2 second, accommodating both bright daylight and low-light environments. The camera includes advanced imaging features such as Back Light Compensation (BLC), Highlight Compensation (HLC), 3D Digital Noise Reduction, and Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) to maintain image integrity across challenging lighting conditions. Smart IR technology automatically adjusts infrared intensity to prevent overexposure during night vision operation.
