Annke AC500 3K PoE Surveillance Security System Black

3K PoE Camera for Outdoor Monitoring

The Annke AC500 is a single 3K resolution PoE surveillance camera built for outdoor home security. It uses a 1/3" BSI CMOS sensor with a 2.8 mm lens to capture 3072x1728 video at a 16:9 aspect ratio. The IP67 rating ensures dust and waterproof durability for permanent exterior installation.

Upgrade from 1080p or Analogue Systems

Moving from 1080p or older analogue setups brings a noticeable jump to 3K clarity with 120 dB WDR and 3D DNR for high-contrast scenes. The H.265+ compression cuts bandwidth and storage needs roughly in half versus H.264, making the upgrade worthwhile when retaining footage longer matters. Motion Detection 2.0 adds AI human and vehicle classification at up to 99 percent precision, reducing false alerts that plague basic motion sensors.

Standalone PoE Node with Local Storage

The camera draws power and data over a single PoE cable, simplifying cabling to a compatible NVR or switch; a DC12V option is also available. An onboard microSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB for direct recording without a recorder. Built-in microphone captures audio, while Smart Dual Light provides colour night vision up to 66 ft and IR up to 100 ft, activating colour mode only when a person is detected.
