Product Features
Technical Overview
This camera captures video at a maximum resolution of 2688 x 1512 (2K) using a 1/2.7-inch CMOS sensor. The varifocal lens offers a 2x optical zoom with focal lengths from 3.4 mm to 6.9 mm, providing flexible framing from wide 121-degree views to tighter 52.4-degree telephoto angles. Aperture ranges from f/1.8 to f/2.4 optimize light intake across conditions.
AI-powered analytics enhance detection accuracy, while an infrared cut-off filter ensures true color reproduction during day/night transitions. The camera records in 2K format with HD support, and its built-in microphone adds audio surveillance capability for comprehensive security coverage.
Relevant factors for this section include HD Recording, Recording Formats, Night Vision, Image Sensor Type. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

Deployment / Use Cases
This camera is ideal for outdoor environments requiring pan-tilt-zoom functionality and high-resolution monitoring. Its PTZ capabilities allow operators to track movement across large areas, while the 2K resolution ensures license plates, facial features, and other details remain identifiable even at a distance.
Common applications include perimeter security for commercial properties, surveillance of parking lots and loading docks, monitoring of construction sites, and oversight of public spaces like parks or campuses. The weatherproof design and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for coastal, industrial, or high-altitude installations where conditions vary.
Large-Area Monitoring
Use the PTZ function to cover expansive outdoor zones with fewer cameras, reducing infrastructure costs while maintaining detailed oversight of critical assets.
- Wide 121° field of view
- Remote pan-tilt-zoom control
- 2K detail for zoomed-in views
24/7 Security Operations
Deploy in locations requiring continuous surveillance, leveraging AI-powered detection and dual night vision to maintain visibility through day-night cycles and adverse weather.
- Infrared/Color night vision
- AI reduces false alerts
- Built-in microphone for audio
Physical Profile
The camera features a compact cylindrical design with a 3.54-inch diameter, constructed from aluminum alloy and polycarbonate for durability without excessive weight. It includes integrated mounting hardware for pole or wall installation, with a streamlined form factor that minimizes visual intrusion in professional settings.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.28 lb (580 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
