Product Features
Technical Overview
The Z36 integrates advanced imaging technologies to deliver superior video quality under various lighting conditions. Its CMOS sensor provides efficient power consumption and high-definition video output, while features like Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and Back Light Compensation (BLC) balance exposure in challenging scenes. The camera includes 2D and 3D Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) to minimize graininess, ensuring crisp footage in both day and night modes.
Network connectivity is handled through a wired RJ-45 Ethernet port, supporting remote management and real-time monitoring. The camera stores video locally via SD card, offering flexible recording options without requiring constant network storage. Power is supplied through 12V DC input, compatible with standard surveillance power supplies.
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.
