2.1 Models
This section gives an overview of the powering, connectivity and mounting options for the
XCU Fusion series. More detailed information is given in the XCU Fusion datasheet.
Modular concept
The XCU Fusion comes in many variations, all sharing the same housing. For mounting and
connectivity purposes, a modular concept is introduced:
● XCU Fusion: This is the camera with the housing, excluding the bracket, mount or cable
connectors.
● Wall/Pole mounting bracket: This is the part with which the camera (via the swivel) will be
mounted, either on a wall or on a pole. The swivel on the bracket is used to fix the pan
and tilt position of the camera.
● Ceiling mount: This is the part with which the XCU Fusion can be ceiling or wall/pole
mounted.
● Connectors and cables.
Powering
Camera power can be supplied by:
● Line voltage (100-240 Vac)
● 24 Vdc / 24 Vac / PoE+
Connectivity
Models are available to connect the camera to:
● Ethernet (RJ-45)
● directly to fiber (dual LC SM)
● directly to existing coax (Ethernet over coax)
