Overview
VIVOTEK’s FE9182-H and FE9382-EHV are two unique H.265 sheye xed dome network
cameras, both featuring a detailed 5-Megapixel CMOS sensor that produces superb image clar-
ity. By employing H.265 compression technology and VIVOTEK’s Smart Stream II technology,
these cameras can reduce both bandwidth and storage consumption by up to 80%* while retain-
ing the highest standard of image quality.
Equipped with a fisheye lens for 180° panoramic view (wall mount) or 360° surround view
(ceiling/floor mount) with zero blind spots, the cameras are able to provide coverage of wide,
open areas, such as airports, shopping malls, retail stores, offices and more.
The FE9182-H and the FE9382-EHV are both equipped with a removable IR-cut lter and WDR
Pro technology, empowering the cameras to maintain optimal image quality around the clock
and unparalleled visibility in high-contrast lighting environments. Moreover, the FE9382-EHV is
designed with full EN50155 compliance, vandal-proof IK10-rated, and weather-proof IP66-rated
housing, ensuring that the camera can withstand shock, vibration, humidity, dust, and tempera-
ture uctuations, and maintain stable and reliable video capture during vehicle movement.
* Depending on scene being monitored.
