Product Features
Technical Overview
This surveillance camera leverages Universal HD over Coax technology, providing native compatibility with HDCVI, HD-TVI, CVBS, and AHD signal formats. This ensures seamless integration into multi-vendor environments and simplifies upgrades from legacy analog systems. The imaging pipeline is optimized for clarity and reliability, incorporating Smart DNR 3D digital noise reduction, auto gain control, and backlight compensation to maintain image integrity across challenging lighting transitions.
Operational control is facilitated through an external OSD with a built-in joystick, allowing for direct menu navigation and lens adjustment without external software. The camera supports advanced features like programmable privacy zones, mirroring, defog, and motion detection. Exposure control is precise, with shutter speeds ranging from 1/30 to 1/30000 second, enabling clear capture of fast-moving objects even in bright conditions.

- Future-proofs coaxial infrastructure
- Reduces integration complexity
Advanced Image Processing
Smart DNR 3D noise reduction, highlight masking exposure, and defog technologies work in concert to deliver clean, usable video in low-light, high-contrast, or adverse weather conditions.
- Reduces grain in low light
- Preserves detail in high-contrast scenes
- Mitigates haze and fog interference
Deployment / Use Cases
This camera is ideally suited for perimeter security, parking lot management, gate access control, and traffic monitoring where clear identification of vehicles and license plates is critical. Its long-range varifocal lens and powerful IR illumination make it effective for covering large areas such as driveways, loading docks, and warehouse exteriors.
The auto-sensing 24VAC/12VDC power input with line lock simplifies installation by accepting common power supplies. The wired connectivity and rugged IP66 housing make it a reliable choice for fixed outdoor installations subject to rain, dust, and vandalism. It serves as a cornerstone for both new installations and cost-effective retrofits of existing coaxial-based security systems.
Perimeter & Access Control
Deploy at property entrances, gates, and fence lines to monitor vehicle traffic and capture license plate data for security logs and access management.
Parking & Traffic Monitoring
Install in parking lots, along streets, or at toll booths to oversee vehicle flow, enforce parking regulations, and gather evidentiary-grade footage of incidents.
Physical Profile
Housed in a durable white bullet form factor, the camera is built to withstand outdoor elements. The IP66 rating certifies protection against powerful water jets and dust ingress, ensuring reliable operation in rain, snow, or dusty industrial settings. Its tamper-resistant design adds a layer of physical security against vandalism. The compact and robust construction, weighing approximately 1.83 lbs, facilitates secure mounting on walls, eaves, or poles for optimal coverage angles.
