🌙 ColorVu Technology

• Full-Color Night Vision: Captures vivid color images day and night.

• F1.0 Large Aperture Lens: Allows more light into the sensor for better low-light performance.

• Supplemental White Light: Built-in white LEDs provide up to 20 meters of illumination in complete darkness without switching to black-and-white IR mode.

🔊 Audio Functionality

• Built-in Microphone: Supports Audio over Coaxial Cable (AoC) for transmitting audio through the same coaxial cable used for video.

• Use Case: Ideal for environments where ambient audio capture is necessary, such as retail stores, reception areas, or entryways.

  • 2.8 mm fixed lens: Approx. 102° horizontal field of view.

  • 3.6 mm fixed lens: Approx. 80° horizontal field of view.

• Type: M12 mount.

🖼️ Image Enhancements

• Digital WDR (Wide Dynamic Range): Helps balance exposure in scenes with varying light levels.

• BLC (Backlight Compensation): Improves visibility in backlit scenes.

• HLC (Highlight Compensation): Suppresses bright lights to improve clarity.

• 2D-DNR (Digital Noise Reduction): Reduces image noise in low-light conditions.

• AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and AWB (Auto White Balance): Improve image quality under different lighting conditions.

🛡️ Build & Durability

• Form Factor: Turret-style (dome) camera, designed for indoor use.

• Material: Plastic housing.

✅ Ideal Applications

• Indoor Security: Offices, classrooms, retail stores, banks, hotel lobbies, and corridors.

• Low-Light Monitoring: Excellent for environments that need full-color clarity in poor lighting conditions.

• Audio Capture: Great for locations requiring ambient sound monitoring or voice recording.

⚠️ Key Considerations

• No Infrared (IR): Relies solely on white LED for night vision—may not suit environments where discreet or no visible light is preferred.

• Indoor Only: Lacks an IP rating; not recommended for outdoor exposure.

• Fixed Lens: No optical zoom or wide-angle adjustment beyond the lens variant chosen.
