In addition to the 4.5-10mm megapixel lens originally offered, Arecont Vision now provides customers the choice of equipping a MegaDome camera with an 8-16mm megapixel lens to enable more telephoto lens requirements.


Available in color or day/night versions and with 1.3M, 2M, 3M or 5 megapixel sensors, the MegaDome cameras incorporate Arecont Vision's H.264 (MPEG-4, Part 10) compression that uses up to 10 times on average less bandwidth and storage compared to megapixel counterparts using M-JPEG compression.


Each model in the new Arecont Vision MegaDome series features a three-axis camera gimbal with 360-degree pan and 90-degree tilt adjustment for accurate positioning, and each features an integrated megapixel varifocal lens, either a 4.5-10mm or an 8 -16mm lens. The domes are supplied in a surface-mount configuration, with pendant mount or wall-mount options available. The vandal-resistant aluminum chassis and 4-inch polycarbonate dome meet the IP66 weatherproofing standard.
