i-PRO U2142LA indoor varifocal dome camera with 4MP resolution video, intelligent Auto, motorised zoom and focus and built-in IR

Overview of the i-PRO U2142LA indoor dome camera

• Feature-packed and secure 4MP indoor dome at an attractive price point
• IR LEDs illuminate up to 20m from the camera, providing clear video in complete darkness
• Key camera settings such as ISO and shutter speed are automatically adjusted with Intelligent Auto (iA) to reduce motion blur in footage with insufficient lighting.
• With Super Dynamic WDR, video captured in high-contrast scenes is improved. By ensuring details in both bright and dark areas are not lost, objects and individuals can be more easily identified.
• Maximum power consumption of 6.5W for energy efficiency

Affordable and energy efficient, without compromising image quality, the i-PRO U2142LA has a maximum power consumption of just 6.5W, reducing its running costs and impact on the environment. Able to capture video 24 hours a day, the unit is equipped with features which mean it can operate, producing usablevideo for security purposes, 24 hours a day. The camera’s round-the-clock capture is made possible by its built-in IR LEDs and advanced imaging technologies that boost image usability in low light conditions. Designed for straightforward installation and low-cost upkeep, this camera also features support for PoE, SD card recording, and motorised zoom and focus capabilities, making it ideal for use in small businesses that need a simple surveillance system.

Imaging and Optics

Fitted with a sensor that produces 4MP resolution video at up to 30 frames per second, even in high contrast light conditions, the U2142LA utilises Super Dynamic WDR to balance out over- and under-exposure and ensure all details can be seen clearly, increasing the chances of identifying individuals and objects. Identification and detailed capture are also improved by Colour night vision, providing full-colour imaging down to 0.019lux and when light levels reduce further, the IR LEDs engage to provide monochrome video in complete darkness. Additionally, intelligent Auto (iA) adjusts settings such as ISO and shutter speed relative to conditions, helping to reduce motion blur and show natural-looking video. The camera’s varifocal lens enables you to remotely adjust the horizontal viewing angle to your desired size between 44° and 102° and the camera feed can also be vertically orientated to maximise coverage when monitoring a narrow area.

Video Analytics

With proactive monitoring as a priority, the i-PRO U2142LA includes video motion and scene change detection alarms that alert you, via email notification, to any events in the camera’s view. There is also an option to set a recording trigger that saves video of any detected event to the storage media of your choice.

Recording and Video Management

Recording and video management options for this camera:

• i-PRO network video recorders (NVR), compatible with all i-PRO cameras, provide a solution that gets the most out of the i-PRO technologies on your camera.
• Milestone XProtect video management software (VMS),  a leading, open-platform VMS solution.

Installation and Mounting Options

Putting ease of use at the forefront, this model features a 2.5x motorised zoom and focus, allowing you to easily set the viewing angle after the camera has been positioned. Powered by PoE, the unit recieves power and data through the same cable, reducing installation costs. With a weight of just 350g, a diameter of 129.5 mm, and the ability to operate in temperatures as low as -10 °C, this compact dome is suited to a wide range of indoor environments. Moreover, bandwidth levels are kept low with H.265 Smart Coding technology, which reduces storage requirements, without lowering image quality.

Wall and ceiling mountable out of the box, this unit can also be used alongside the following accessories for more bespoke mounting solutions:

• QJB502 back box (recommended)
