EDN Plus Series

1. Introduction
The EDN Plus series is an indoor IP dome delivering image quality of up to 3-megapixel. The camera is
equipped with a P-Iris, which enables the camera to automatically and precisely control the Iris opening in
all lighting conditions for optimal depth of field and image quality including sharpness and clarity.
The EDN Plus series supports both H.264 and MJPEG compression formats. The IR LEDs are also
implemented for infrared illumination in night vision applications.
The EDN Plus series features the Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) function, which can provide clear images
even under back light circumstances where intensity of illumination can vary excessively. A built-in micro
SDHC card slot and Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af) features are also provided. You can power the
camera over the network or by connecting the camera to a 12V DC power supply. Since the EDN Plus series
conforms to ONVIF / PSIA for compatibility with other network video devices, it interoperates with a wide
variety of hardware and software systems.
