Product Features
Technical Overview
This camera utilizes a CMOS image sensor that supports both color and monochrome imaging, automatically switching to night vision mode via its Day/Night feature. The EXIR 2.0 infrared technology extends night vision range to 131 feet (40 meters), ensuring reliable monitoring in low-light conditions.
Digital Wide Dynamic Range (D-WDR) compensates for challenging lighting scenarios, such as backlight or high-contrast environments, to maintain balanced image quality. Additional imaging enhancements include noise reduction and automatic white balance for consistent color reproduction across varying light sources.
This section brings together practical product details such as HD Recording, Recording Formats, Night Vision Distance, Image Sensor Type, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.

- WDR for high-contrast scenes
- Auto Day/Night switching
Deployment / Use Cases
This bullet camera is designed for perimeter security, entryway monitoring, and outdoor asset protection where a fixed field of view and visible deterrent are advantageous. Its conduit mount facilitates secure installation on walls, eaves, or poles, while the compact bullet housing minimizes visual obstruction.
Ideal for retrofitting existing analog surveillance systems, the camera supports multiple analog HD formats (TVI, AHD, CVI, CVBS) and standard definition (CVBS), ensuring compatibility with a wide range of DVRs and hybrid recorders. This flexibility makes it a practical choice for expanding or upgrading legacy security setups without replacing entire systems.
Physical Profile
The bullet form factor measures approximately 331.1 grams, offering a lightweight yet durable housing suitable for outdoor mounting. The conduit mount provides a secure attachment point, while the IP67 construction withstands dust, rain, and temperature extremes from -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to 60°C).
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 331.1 g. This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
