The ACTi E81A is a 1MP outdoor fixed dome camera designed for day/night surveillance with IR illumination and WDR support. It uses a progressive scan CMOS sensor, a vari-focal f2.8–12mm lens, and Adaptive IR LED technology for low-light monitoring.
1MP fixed dome camera; 1/4 in. progressive scan CMOS sensor; f2.8–12mm vari-focal lens; outdoor application environment; IR LED working distance up to 30m; WDR 74dB.
• 1280(H) x 800(V) effective pixels with 1.02MP imaging output
• Day/night operation with mechanical IR cut filter
• Adaptive IR LED x 15 with 850nm wavelength and 30m IR working distance
• Standard low light sensitivity with 0.1 lux color illumination and 0 lux B/W with IR LED on
• Weatherproof IP67, vandal-proof IK10, and NEMA 4X rated housing
The camera supports WDR 74dB to help maintain visibility in scenes with uneven lighting. Its electronic shutter supports 1/5–1/2000 second in manual mode and 1/5–1/10000 second in auto mode, allowing exposure adjustment across changing outdoor conditions.
The outdoor dome housing is rated IP67, IK10, and NEMA 4X, making it suitable for exposed installations that require weather resistance and impact protection.
