■ Intra frame period

Determine how often to plant an I frame� The shorter the duration, the more likely you will get better video quality, but at the cost of higher network bandwidth consumption� Select the intra frame period from the following durations: 1/4 second, 1/2 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, and 4 seconds�

■ Video quality

A complex scene generally produces a larger file size, meaning that higher bandwidth will be needed for data transmission� Therefore, if Constant bit rate is selected, the bandwidth utilization is fixed at a selected level, resulting in mutable video quality performance� The bit rates are selectable at the following rates: 20Kbps, 30Kbps, 40Kbps, 50Kbps, 64Kbps, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 768Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 3Mbps, 4Mbps, 6Mbps, and 8Mbps� You can also select Customize and manually enter a value�

On the other hand, if Fixed quality is selected, all frames are transmitted with the same quality; bandwidth utilization is therefore unpredictable� The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent� You can also select Customize and manually enter a value�

If JPEG mode is selected, the Network Camera continuously sends JPEG images to the client, producing a moving effect similar to a filmstrip� Every single JPEG image transmitted guarantees the same image quality, which in turn comes at the expense of variable bandwidth usage� Because the media contents are a combination of JPEG images, no audio data is transmitted to the client� There are three parameters provided in MJPEG mode to control the video performance:

■ Frame size

You can set up different video resolution for different viewing devices� For example, set a smaller frame size and lower bit rate for remote viewing on mobile phones and a larger video size and a higher bit rate for live viewing on web browsers� Note that a larger frame size takes up more bandwidth�

■ Maximum frame rate

This limits the maximum refresh frame rate per second� Set the frame rate higher for smoother video quality�

If the power line frequency is set to 50Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, and 25fps� If the power line frequency is set to 60Hz, the frame rates are selectable at 1fps, 2fps, 3fps, 5fps, 8fps, 10fps, 15fps, 20fps, 25fps, and 30fps� You can also select Customize and manually enter a value� The frame rate will decrease if you select a higher resolution�

■ Video quality

The video quality can be adjusted to the following settings: Medium, Standard, Good, Detailed, and Excellent� You can also select Customize and manually enter a value�

NOTE:

►Video quality and fixed quality refers to the compression rate, so a lower value will produce higher quality�

►Converting high-quality video may significantly increase the CPU loading, and you may encounter streaming disconnection or video loss while capturing a complicated scene� In the event of occurance, we suggest you customize a lower video resolution or reduce the frame rate to obtain smooth video�

FD8162 specifications

The Vivotek FD8162 is a high-performance fixed dome network camera designed to deliver exceptional video surveillance capabilities, making it an ideal choice for various indoor applications, such as retail environments, offices, and public spaces. This camera stands out due to its compact design and advanced features that cater to the needs of modern security systems.

One of the key features of the FD8162 is its 2-megapixel Full HD resolution, which provides clear and detailed video quality at 30 frames per second. This high resolution ensures that critical details are captured, enabling users to identify individuals and recognize activities with ease. The camera is equipped with a 3.6 mm fixed lens, offering a wide field of view, which is essential for monitoring larger areas without compromising on image quality.

The FD8162 incorporates advanced image processing technologies, including WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) and 3D noise reduction. WDR technology significantly improves image quality in environments with challenging lighting conditions, allowing the camera to capture clear images in both bright and dark areas simultaneously. Meanwhile, 3D noise reduction enhances low-light performance, making it suitable for 24/7 surveillance.

Another notable characteristic of the Vivotek FD8162 is its efficient storage management capabilities. The camera supports H.264 compression, which minimizes bandwidth usage and storage requirements while maintaining high-quality video streams. This feature is particularly beneficial for users with limited storage capacity, as it ensures efficient use of resources.

Vivotek has also designed the FD8162 with durability in mind. The camera is housed in a compact and robust casing that is resistant to impacts, ensuring reliability and longevity in various environments. Additionally, the camera is equipped with an IP66-rated weatherproof enclosure, making it suitable for deployment in a variety of settings, whether indoors or in sheltered outdoor areas.

Security and ease of use are further enhanced through the integration of Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, which simplifies installation by allowing the camera to receive power and network connectivity through a single cable. This reduces clutter and simplifies wiring, making setup easier for users.

In conclusion, the Vivotek FD8162 is a versatile and reliable surveillance camera that combines high-resolution video quality, advanced imaging technologies, and durable design. Its features make it an excellent choice for those seeking an efficient and effective security solution for various indoor monitoring applications.
