1. Overview

1.1 Description

The EPH5212 is an HDcctv IP66 speed dome camera equipped with autofocus 12X optical zoom plus 10X useable digital zoom with true Day/Night capability, DNR to improve image clarity, BLC/HSBLC and EWDR to handle the most challenging of bright or unbalanced lighting conditions, and DSS to improve low light performance. Based on a 1/2.8” Sony Exmor R progressive scan 2.1 megapixel CMOS sensor for your choice of HD 1080p or 720p resolution 100% digital images, it delivers vastly superior video quality compared to traditional CCTV images. This superior resolution not only captures more critical evidentiary information, but the inherent ability for megapixel video also extends the area of coverage, expedites completion of investigations, resolves complaints and reduces both capital and operational costs.

With conventional PTZ optical zoom only the area in the reduced field of view can be displayed and recorded, often requiring multiple cameras to achieve coverage of large areas. The ability to employ digital zoom at the DVR to magnify both live and playback images allows more effective coverage of larger areas by recording the full optical field of view while concentrating on areas of interest using the DVR’s digital zoom. For example, using a mere 4X digital zoom at the DVR in place of optical zoom at the PTZ allows the recording of an area 16 times that being analyzed on screen by systems comprised of EverFocus DVRs and HDcctv cameras.

A full function PTZ speed dome, the EPH5212 features everything you expect from a high quality PTZ: 360° ’endless pan’ rotation, 180° tilt with digital auto-flip, 210 preset positions, 8 auto scan zones, 6 patterns, 8 tours (consisting of presets, patterns and scans), 4 NO/NC alarm input triggers, a ‘form C’ alarm output, speed proportional to zoom ratio, motion detection, privacy masking (up to 8 areas) flexible programming of functions and alarm actions, mutli-language support, built-in heater for operation down to -40° and much more, in a compact package only 6.6” in diameter and weighing only 7.7 pounds (PTZ module plus wall arm).

No major upgrade to the IT network is required to deploy this powerful technology; HDcctv cameras communicate at digital speeds up to 1.5Gb/s over existing or new coaxial cable (RG59 or other types for longer distances), using industry standard BNC connectors. The EPH5212 responds to conventional RS-485 control signals formatted in EVF- 1, Pelco P or Pelco D protocol. For convenience, a full time analog video output is also provided. The EPH5212 delivers flexible, robust coverage in a wide range of demanding surveillance environments while delivering stunning HD image quality.
