Arecont Vision AV3155DN Outdoor 3 megapixel at 15 fps IP CCTV camera for day and night, varifocal lens, H.264 and PoE

This product is now discontinued, an alternative is the Mobotix D15

The Arecont Vision AV3155DN MegaDome is a high resolution, outdoor-ready fixed dome IP camera. A 3 megapixel sensor delivers highly detailed images which are 10x the resolution of standard VGA security cameras and with high speed processing, full resolution video can streamed at up to 15fps.

The weatherproof, vandal-resistant case is ideal for outdoor CCTV installation and requires no additional protection from the weather. Combined with compatibility for Power over Ethernet (PoE) the Arecont MegaDome range is simple and cost-effective needing only one network cable for both power and video data.

With H.264 video compression the Arecont Vision AV3155DN MegaDome offers low-bitrate video streaming which can reduce bandwidth and storage requirements and true day/night switching allows 24h monitoring in indoor or outdoor environments. Like all IP cameras available from Network Webcams, the Arecont Vision AV3155DN MegaDome IP security camera 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.

Important: This camera does not include a power supply unless you have selected one from the options above.
