IR Look-Up for Day and Night
Integrated varizoom IR lights scenes in total darkness up to 200 m from the camera, with brightness that follows the zoom. The tilt range of +30° to -90° lets the camera look above the horizon, and SureVision delivers up to 130 dB WDR with anti-bloom and color down to 0.035 lux.
Long-Range Zoom and Fast Positioning
The 30x lens (f/1.6 to f/4.4, focal length 4.5 mm (wide) to 135.0 mm (tele)) covers 62° (wide) to 2.3° (tele). Direct Drive closed-loop control moves the camera at up to 450°/sec pan and 320°/sec tilt with ±0.03° preset accuracy, and supports 256 presets, 32 tours, 8 scans and 8 patterns. Electronic image stabilization with a gyro steadies the image on poles and towers.
Pelco Analytics
Pelco Advanced Analytics uses AI object detection to classify people and vehicles (car, truck, bus, motorcycle and bicycle) with Zone, Counterflow and Line Counting behaviors. The Enhanced Analytics suite adds Abandoned Object, Adaptive Motion Detection, AutoTracker, Camera Sabotage, Directional Motion, Loitering Detection, Object Counting, Object Removal and Stopped Vehicle, and Pelco Camera Link pairs the camera with Pelco Optera panoramic cameras.
Cybersecurity and Integration
The camera uses HTTPS with TLS 1.2, AES 256-bit encryption, digitally signed firmware, 802.1X and a built-in firewall. It is ONVIF Profile G, M, S and T conformant and works with Pelco VideoXpert and third-party VMS, with up to 2 TB of microSD edge storage.
Installation and Power
The environmental pendant mounts on a 1.5-inch NPT thread to the IWM-SW wall mount or other Pelco pendant mounts. It runs on PoE 802.3bt (71 W maximum), 24 VAC or 48 VDC, and switches between PoE and a dedicated auxiliary supply without interrupting video.
Typical Applications
- City streets, intersections and roadways
- Bridges, ports and harbors
- Stadiums and large venues
