Advantages

• High-quality image with excellent low-light sensitivity.

• Wide Dynamic Range (144 dB) ensures clear images in backlit and complex lighting conditions.

• Motorized zoom provides flexibility for adjusting the field of view.

• Support for modern codecs (H.265, Smart Coding) helps reduce bandwidth and storage use.

• Compact design and PoE support simplify installation and setup.

Limitations and Considerations

• Mainly designed for indoor use (operating temperature up to +50 °C). For outdoor installation, another version is required.

• 3.6× zoom is moderate — may be insufficient for long-distance observation compared to PTZ models.

• Despite low power consumption, large systems with many cameras and high-quality recordings require reliable storage and strong network capacity.

• The model was released earlier — check availability and version compatibility before purchase.
