Product Features
Technical Overview
This network camera features an advanced CMOS sensor that captures 8-megapixel still images and 4K video at 30 frames per second. The sensor's f/1.0 maximum aperture allows more light to reach the imaging surface, improving low-light performance. Video compression utilizes H.264, H.264+, H.265, and H.265+ codecs to optimize bandwidth usage while maintaining image quality, with MJPEG support for specific applications.
The camera includes comprehensive video analytics capabilities such as motion detection, audio detection, cross-line detection, and human detection. These intelligent features reduce false alarms and focus security resources on genuine events. Privacy masking allows administrators to block specific areas from recording, while 3D digital noise reduction and backlight compensation ensure clear images in challenging lighting conditions.
This section brings together practical product details such as HD Recording, Recording Formats, Night Vision, Image Sensor Type, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
