- Camera Tampering
Compact Design with Wide-Angle Coverage
The 2.8 mm ultra-wide-angle lens allows the camera to cover larger areas despite its small form factor. Perfect for corridors, elevators, small warehouses, and convenience stores where space is limited but monitoring requirements are high.
Two-Way Audio for Interactive Security
Built-in microphone and speaker enable direct communication, allowing you to respond to incidents in real time or issue warnings remotely.
Vandal-Proof for Reliable Protection
With an IK08-rated dome casing, the camera withstands tampering and physical damage, making it suitable for high-risk locations like ATMs, checkout counters, and public corridors.
Efficient Video Compression
H.265+ compression ensures high-quality video while reducing bandwidth usage and storage needs. This minimizes network load and lowers monitoring costs without sacrificing image clarity.
Smart Video Enhancement
Technologies such as Smart IR, WDR, 3D DNR, and Night Vision enhance video quality in low-light conditions and challenging environments, ensuring all recorded footage is clear and actionable.
Corridor Mode for Narrow Spaces
Rotate the camera image 90degrees to change the aspect ratio from 16:9 to 9:16 . This is ideal for monitoring long, narrow areas like hallways and aisles, providing a natural viewing perspective.
