The Canon VB-C500VD encompasses an advanced network camera within a vandal resistant dome shell, making it a suitable choice for harsh indoor security environments. At its widest point, the camera's 2.4x zoom lens provides an 82° horizontal field of view, allowing the use of a single camera to cover a broad surveillance area.
For dependable 24/7 surveillance, the VB-C500VD switches from color to a B/W video mode when daylight fades. In Night mode, the camera's low light sensitivity is increased to 0.1 lux. Day/Night switching can be done manually or set for auto or scheduled activation. There are also a number of other advanced picture controls in place, in particular a sophisticated exposure meter, to help the camera overcome adverse lighting and scene conditions.
With regards to network capabilities the VB-C500VD is also a solid performer. It offers selectable MPEG-4 and MJPEG compression options for efficient data management, and supports 2-way audio for communicating verbally over the network. Canon's VK-Lite software is included free with the camera, allowing you to view and record up to 4 cameras over the network. You'll also appreciate the camera's PoE feature, which by channeling power over the Ethernet cable will give you greater versatility in the installation process.
- Vandal-Resistant Design
- The VB-C500VD is equipped with Canon's unique vandal-resistant construction. The exterior housing is made of alloyed aluminum, while the strong polycarbonate dome is impact resistant. The camera mechanism floats on four built-in springs, which act as shock absorbers in the event of an impact.
- Wide-Angle 2.4x Zoom Lens
- With an ultra-wide 82° horizontal field of view and a 2.4x optical zoom, the VB-C500VD is ideal for every monitoring need. The wide-angle lens makes the camera perfect for narrow spaces like corridors, while the 2.4x zoom is useful for open areas such as large offices.
- MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG Video
- With support for MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG video formats, the VB-C500VD can deliver high-quality VGA resolution video. Footage can be distributed to up to 30 simultaneous clients (max 10 clients with MPEG-4).
- Progressive Scan
- For a sharper view of moving subjects, the progressive scan CCD image sensor minimizes the 'comb' effect often seen in interlaced video. The camera can deliver up to 30 FPS, subject to the available network bandwidth.
- On-Screen Display
- The VB-C500VD can overlay the date, time, camera name or any custom text (up to 15 characters) on top of the video. To ensure clear visibility of the information, the position of the text, character color and outline color can be easily changed.
- Continuous Monitoring - Day and Night
- With the help of DIGIC NET processing, the VB-C500VD can operate in a wide range of lighting conditions. Color imaging is supported even in low light, down to 0.2 lux. Digital Night Mode increases the sensitivity to provide a clear monochrome image.
- Power over Ethernet (PoE)
- The VB-C500VD can be powered by the same Ethernet cable that is used to transfer data, without the need for a separate power source. This enables the camera to be installed without the hassle and expense of a separate mains power supply.
- Two-Way Audio
- The VB-C500VD can transmit and receive full-duplex audio from the camera site. A microphone and active speaker can be connected via an optional interface cable, so live audio can be received from the camera, or a warning relayed to potential intruders.
- Bundled VK-Lite Network Video Recording Software
- The VB-C500VD comes bundled with Canon's 'VK-Lite' Video Recording software, supporting up to four cameras. The camera is supplied with everything you need to start recording, straight out of the box.
