VIVOTEK SD7151, equipped with an 18x optical zoom lens, is a high performance day/night
speed dome network suitable for professional surveillance applications. It is another significant
addition to VIVOTEK’s high-end network camera portfolio of progressive-series.
Adopting Sony 18x optical zoom lens plus progressive CCD sensor, this network camera allows
you not only to have close-up images with exceptional detail from a long distance when enlarged
but also get crystal-clear, razor-sharp images of fast-moving objects without jagged edges.
With sophisticated pan/tilt mechanism, it provides fast, precise movement with continuous
360-degree pan and 90-degree tilt. You can easily control the lens position by a mouse or a
joystick to track the object you are interested in and have up to 128 presets for patrolling.
The day and night function makes this camera ideal for operating under diverse lighting
conditions. When light conditions turns poor, the IR cut filter will be automatically removed to
accept IR illumination. Meanwhile, the camera switches itself automatically from color to black
and white, assuring optimal image quality at all times.
More advanced features including 3GPP mobile surveillance, two-way audio by SIP protocol,
and digital I/O for external sensor and alarm make VIVOTEK SD7151 a full-featured speed
dome. It is the best solution for various enterprise projects such as airports, highways, parking
