Spectrum-22 Infrared & White Light IP PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom) Security Camera

Spectrum-22

Indoor/Outdoor Starlight  Full Spectrum PTZ

The Spectrum-22 is an Indoor/Outdoor PTZ Camera that has two types of lighting – Infrared and also White Light.  At night, when the camera is not zoomed in, the White Lights are on.  As you zoom in, they grow in intensity, then after about halfway (around 90-100 feet), the Infrared Lights kick on and the White Lights turn off.

This 2 Megapixel Starlight Network Camera works great anywhere you put it – Indoors in warehouses or other large spaces, but also, thanks to being totally weatherproof, at any outdoor location it is needed. At a Gate, a Driveway, Restricted Areas, or building entrances.

Since the Spectrum-22 is also a Starlight Camera, it can really pull in details under longer distances where the Infrared Lamps may no longer be very strong.

The light-gathering Starlight Sensor doesn’t need much light to deliver a color picture, and if the light is too low to produce a color image, the camera will switch to black & white.

Smart IR

The Infrared Lamps can cast out their invisible IR Light to as far as 650 feet! Plus – they are controlled via Smart IR, which controls the brightness based on the picture – if something is too close and starts glaring too much white in the picture, it turns down the brightness.

One of the unique features of this small, yet powerful Pan/Tilt/Zoom camera, is the 22X Zoom Lens. This lens has a faster Auto-Focus sequence than most PTZ’s, and can deliver a sharply focused image very quickly. This Motorized Zoom Lens (6.5mm to 143mm), is intended to see people, vehicles and other items of interest at a distance.

Notice that the lens starts at 6.5mm. This is not wide angle, and is intended to zoom down hallways, all the way across a warehouse, out to a gate or perimeter fence, or to zoom in on processes or machinery. The view starts out at about 70 degrees wide, then zooms in to only 3.76 degrees wide. So that should give you a pretty clear picture of what this camera is designed to do. It’s made for Zooming in to see detail (Digital Zoom can also be turned on).

This PTZ can have as many as 256 Preset positions, can run Patrols, Routes, or even learn a patrol based on where you have directed with the controls. It remembers your inputs and saves them.

It also has a Home position that it will return to after a time you have set.

This PTZ Camera delivers 1080p resolution at 30fps, and can also be set to 720p or lower if needed. It also has the ability to carry an SD Card for stand-alone or emergency backup recording (up to 128Gb).

Wide Dynamic Range

One of the great features of this camera, is the REAL Optical WDR (Wide Dynamic Range – with 120dB gain) from Sony. Unlike Digital WDR, this feature, when turned on and fine-tuned, can really help with blinding glare and when the sun is behind a person you are trying to see. This is commonly encountered in a warehouse setting when a Bay Door is up and the sunlight is causing glare. This feature is yet another tool to tailor this camera to wherever you need it – despite the prevailing conditions.

This IP Camera is Outdoor Rated (IP66), and also works well indoors in larger spaces. It is also hardened with an IK10 Vandal-Resistant Rating. This means that this camera has been tested with the equivalent of a sledgehammer weighing more than 11 pounds – being dropped onto the dome from about 18” – with no damage.

Add in the fact that this camera is rated down to -40 below, and +158 (F), and you have a camera that is ready for just about any environment you need it to be.

Take a look at some of the other Features not already mentioned here:

• 800 feet + for Video and Audio over normal Cat5e (when connected to any Enviro Cams NVR or POE Switch with extended distance turned on). This PTZ pulls a lot of power, so Operation Voltage must be more local to the camera (within a couple hundred feet max when using AC voltage).

• 24V AC (default voltage) or 24V DC (11-47 watts max)

• Intelligent Temperature Control – Fans control the temperature of the PTZ

• Innovative Snow Removal Technology – heats up the Lens and Lamp areas to melt off ice and snow

• OnVif Conformance

• H.265, H.265+, H.264 and MJPEG Compressions (@1080p or lower)

• Micro SD Card can be purchased (pre-formatted for use in the camera), and can be used as stand-alone recording or as a fail-over if POE Power is cut. When POE is restored, the card will automatically download all the recording to the NVR.

• Supports many Smart Analytics – People counting, Face Detection, Line Crossing, Intrusion, Motion, etc.

• This camera has Audio input wires and Audio output wires. This makes it possible to add an external Mic, or to even have Two-Way Audio.

• Also has 2 Alarm input connections and 1 Alarm output connection. This can facilitate many scenarios. For example: connect a door sensor, and turn on a light or siren (no voltage present, so an Interface or Relay will be needed).
