Extra Info
Mobile 4G Surveillance – Internet-Free Monitoring
This camera features a built-in SIM card slot for 4G mobile data connectivity, enabling live streaming and remote access in locations without fixed internet. It’s perfect for temporary installations, construction sites, remote farms, or mobile units—anywhere rapid deployment is needed.
Smart IR – Clear Night Images Without Glare
Unlike standard infrared, Smart IR technology dynamically adjusts IR brightness based on subject distance. This prevents subjects from appearing overexposed or “washed out” when they get close to the camera, ensuring sharp black-and-white footage even in total darkness.
Built-In Video Analytics (IVS)
The camera includes intelligent features like Tripwire and Intrusion Detection. These functions monitor virtual boundaries and alert you only when humans or vehicles enter the defined area—enabling proactive threat detection before incidents escalate.
Flexible Mounting Options
Compatible with wall and ceiling mounts like PFB121W or PFB110W, the camera is easy to install wherever visibility is most needed. Whether you’re securing a building entrance, utility pole, or site perimeter, its adaptable design provides reliable placement flexibility.
Optimized Video Compression (Smart H.265+)
Using Smart H.265+ compression, the camera analyzes motion and scene complexity to intelligently compress footage—reducing bandwidth and storage usage by up to 70% without compromising video quality. This makes it ideal for data-sensitive deployments, especially on 4G networks.
