FAQ
What makes the 130 dB true WDR technology significant?
The 130 dB true Wide Dynamic Range provides exceptional performance in challenging lighting conditions with strong backlighting. This advanced technology ensures clear imaging even when subjects are positioned against bright backgrounds, significantly outperforming standard digital WDR systems.
How does Power over Coax (PoC) benefit installation?
PoC technology allows both power and video transmission through a single coaxial cable, eliminating the need for separate power infrastructure. This is particularly beneficial for retrofitting existing systems or locations where power access is challenging, reducing installation time and costs significantly.
What is 3D Digital Noise Reduction and how does it improve image quality?
3D DNR technology analyses both spatial and temporal image data to reduce noise whilst preserving important detail. This advanced processing delivers exceptionally clean and sharp images, particularly beneficial in low-light conditions where noise typically becomes problematic.
What field of view does the 2.8mm lens provide?
The 2.8mm fixed lens delivers an expansive 105° horizontal field of view, 59° vertical field of view, and 139° diagonal field of view. This ultra-wide coverage makes it ideal for monitoring large areas, building perimeters, or any application requiring comprehensive surveillance coverage.
How does this camera differ from other ColorVu models?
This model features true 130 dB WDR technology, PoC capability, 3D DNR processing, and enhanced Smart Hybrid Light with 40m range. These advanced features make it suitable for the most demanding surveillance applications requiring superior image quality and installation flexibility.
What power considerations are needed for PoC operation?
The camera requires 12 VDC±25% with maximum 7.8W consumption, or PoC.at. For high-impedance cables (such as 18m extension cables), a 15 VDC adapter is required to ensure reliable operation and optimal performance.
