1. Description
The network camera supports the network service for a sensor image with progressive scan, which
can be monitored on a real-time screen regardless of distances and locations. By using its
dedicated program, many users are able to have an access to the network camera at once or a
single user can monitor various network cameras at the same time. It also enables users to play,
store and retrieve a monitoring image by using a PC. All the settings and real-time monitoring
screens are also provided through an access to the web.
The network camera is fully featured for security surveillance and remote monitoring needs. It is
based on the DSP compression chip, and makes it available on the network as real-time, full frame
rate Motion JPEG and H.264 video streams.
1.1 Components
The camera is designed with compact, small size, hard dome camera housing. The housing is
constructed of aluminum, steel and plastic. The housing is designed to be mounted on a wall or a

1.2 Key Features
Brilliant video quality
The network camera offers the highly efficient H.264 video compression, which drastically
reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without compromising image quality. Motion
JPEG is also supported for increased flexibility.
Triple Streams
The network camera can deliver triple video streams simultaneously at full frame rate in all
resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 using Motion JPEG and H.264. This means that several video
streams can be configured with different compression formats, resolutions and frame rates for
different needs.
Image setting adjustment
The network camera also enables users to adjust image settings such as contrast, brightness
and saturation to improve images before encoding takes place.
Intelligent video capabilities
The network camera includes intelligent capabilities such as enhanced video motion detection.
The network camera’s external inputs and outputs can be connected to devices such as
sensors and relays, enabling the system to react to alarms and activate lights or open/close
doors.
Improved Security
The network camera logs all user access, and lists currently connected users. Also, its full
frame rate video can be provided over HTTPS.
PoE (Power over Ethernet)
This network camera can be powered through PoE, which simplifies installation since only one
cable is needed for carrying power, as well as video controls.
ONVIF Certificate
This is a global interface standard that makes it easier for end users, integrators, consultants,
and manufacturers to take advantage of the possibilities offered by network video technology.
ONVIF enables interoperability between different vendor products, increased flexibility,
reduced cost, and future-proof systems.

6
CAUTION: Before installing mounting bracket to surface pre-adjust the four mounting
screws "A" on the base of the dome camera to best match the mounting
bracket locked position. Unscrew the locking screw on the side of the dome's
base and fit the tab of the mounting bracket into the locking slot. Screws "A"
should not be too tight or too loose when the dome is in the locked position.
After setting the proper positions of screws "A" remove the mounting bracket
and install it to the proper surface. If it is too difficult to lock the dome in
position after the mounting bracket has been installed readjust the screws "A"
by unscrewing them a small amount and try to install dome camera again.

General Performance Considerations
When setting up your system, it is important to consider how various settings and situations will
affect performance. Some factors affect the amount of bandwidth (the bit rate) required, others can
affect the frame rate, and some affect both. If the load on the CPU reaches its maximum, this will
also affect the frame rate.
The following factors are among the most important to consider:
- High image resolutions and/or lower compression levels (or high bitrates) result in larger
images. Frame rate and Bandwidth affected.
- Accessing both Motion JPEG and H.264 video streams simultaneously. Frame rate and
bandwidth affected.
- Heavy network utilization due to poor infrastructure. Frame rate and Bandwidth affected.
- Heavy network utilization via wireless router due to poor infrastructure. Frame rate and
bandwidth affected.
- Viewing on poorly performing client PCs lowers perceived performance. Frame rate affected.
