New analogue cameras

April 2014 Surveillance

Hikvision is set to extend its PICADIS analogue product line with its latest offering: the DS-2CE15F5P(N)-VFIR3 720TVL varifocal IR bullet camera and the DS-2CE55F5P(N)-VFIR3 720TVL varifocal IR dome camera. Both of these models are aimed to set new standards for both image quality and low-light surveillance. These cameras are designed to capture superior clear colour images in extreme, low-light conditions. Both feature a 1/3-inch 1.3 MP PICADIS II image sensor and Hikvision’s 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) technology.

Similar to previous varifocal PICADIS analogue cameras, these two new models are now equipped with several advanced features. The new Mega PICADIS II image sensor was designed to be used along with Hikvision’s 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) technology to secure higher image quality under challenging lighting circumstances. Ultimately, this improvement results in unparalleled visibility in extremely bright and dark environments and provides a performance that easily surpasses conventional analogue cameras.

OSD with UTC (Up-the-Coax) advantage

This new camera line of is equipped with a BNC connector to transfer the video signal. When compared to conventional analogue cameras, this feature provides remote control of the camera’s OSD from the terminal (such as a computer monitor in the control room) to the camera, and vice versa. This also facilitates faster and easier camera management, allowing for higher precision and control over camera functionality and imaging settings/adjustments from the monitoring room. The result is a substantial savings in configuration time and money.

Moreover, an IP66 rating protects against elements such as rain and dust, making both cameras ideal choices for almost any application and installation – especially for those outdoors. Both new models are available in grey and white colour schemes.
