Chapter 2 - Fixed Dome Network Camera
Overview
The FIXED DOME SERIES is a full-featured, 3-axis, fixed-dome, network camera.
With a megapixel progressive sensor and built-in IR-cut filter/ IR illuminator LEDs/
Auto Light sensor, it can provide 24-hour, indoor surveillance. The FIXED DOME
SERIES features a wide-angle and vari-focal lens, which offers wide view coverage of
all angles.
The FIXED DOME SERIES is designed to provide end users with high quality video
feed for an easily accessible security system. The embedded high performance
image sensor and CPU allow for each camera to stream real time, high resolution
video at 30 fps. It can transmit video using many codec compression options,
including MPEG-4/MJPEG/H.264, which reduce bandwidth and storage requirements
without compromising image quality. For easy viewing of the video feed, users can
view the live feed from anywhere through internet browsers or 3G portable devices.
Installation is simplified by the added support for Power over Ethernet which enables
each camera to receive power through the same cable as for data transmission. The
DI/DO function allows users to connect the FIXED DOME SERIES to external alarm
and sensor devices for added security protection.
With the included EasyConfig installation software, this series offers end-users easy
installation without the need for a strong technical background. The 3-axis mechanical
design makes the FIXED DOME SERIES the perfect security camera for any school,
bank, or corporate office surveillance system.
