Mobotix IP 3 Megapixel Weatherproof Dual Network Camera with Telephoto 135mm Lenses

This IP65-rated camera, resistant to extreme temperature and weather conditions as well as full Power over Ethernet support allows the camera to be installed in virtually any indoor or outdoor location with no additional heating or protection required. Its dual lens design provides automatic day/night switching by swapping to an infrared sensitive black and white lens during periods of low-light. Minimum illumination for the camera starts at 1.0 lux in color 0.1 lux in black and white. From either lens the camera produces images at a maximum resolution of 2048x1536 pixels (color) at a frame-rate of up to 30fps (at 640x480). The camera has a built-in microphone and speaker allowing 2-way communication and lip-synchronous audio recording. An integrated ring-buffer recording solution using Windows or Linux file servers provides a recording and playback solution without the expense of additional software or using FTP servers. Powerful alarm management tools allow the set up of event triggers to send images by email or FTP based on a wide range of triggers such as motion, audio or infrared detection. Like all IP cameras offered on www.networkwebcams.com, the Mobotix M12-SEC-DNIGHT-D135N135 has a built-in web server and can be viewed over a Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN) or via the Internet as a streaming IP webcam.

 

A rugged outdoor IP camera, suitable for a wide range of demanding environments such as parking lots, industrial and commercial properties, railroad stations, schools, colleges and other indoor or outdoor public and commercial spaces and facilities

The MOBOTIX M12D-DualNight network camera series includes high-performance professional cameras for use during the day and at night. The cameras are equipped with two separate image sensors and a day and night lens. Depending on the lighting conditions, the camera switches automatically from color to the more sensitive black-and-white sensor. This ensures an optimum picture quality even at night. With megapixel resolution (1280x960 pixels), integrated microphone and speaker, ISDN connection, motion detection, alarm management with pre- and post-alarms, alarm alert via telephone call, digital zoom, event-controlled recording, switching functions (1x In, 1x Out) and an RS232 interface as well as certified temperature tolerance from -30C to +60C (-22 to +140F), the M12D-DualNight cameras also include all the trusted MOBOTIX functions for convenient, professional camera use.

 

Optionally, the cameras in the M12D-DualNight series are also available with a telephoto/super-wide-angle lens combination in addition to the Day-Night model. With the exception of the telephoto lens, all the lenses in the M12 camera models are adjusted at the factory and fixed into place, i.e. glued, so that they are set to record the sharpest images for the life of the camera.

While this is an advantage in terms of camera durability (particularly when it is exposed to high winds or swaying masts), the disadvantage is that the lenses can only be adjusted in the factory.
