Bluecctv 700 TVL Vari-Focal Camera

This Bluecctv analogue camera delivers 700 TV lines of resolution through a 1/3" Sony Super HAD II CCD sensor with 811 x 508 effective pixels. The 2.8-12 mm vari-focal lens allows the field of view to be adjusted on site. Forty-two infrared LEDs provide illumination down to 0 lux for night-time monitoring. The grey housing operates on 12 V DC power.

Analogue 960H WDR Interface Limits

The camera outputs a standard analogue signal compatible with 960H DVRs, so recorded detail is capped at the 960H horizontal resolution. Wide dynamic range processing exceeds 60 dB to balance bright and dark areas in the same scene, yet the analogue transmission cannot carry the metadata or encryption found on digital IP streams. Installers must run coaxial cable back to the recorder for each unit.

Grey Housing with OSD and Fixed IR

The grey metal case brackets for wall or ceiling mounting and carries an on-screen display menu for local configuration of WDR, exposure and privacy zones. The 42 IR LEDs are built into the front bezel, fixing the illumination angle to match the lens setting at the time of installation. A 12 V DC supply must be routed separately as the camera does not support Power over Coax.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2.8 mm or 12 mm end of the vari-focal range?

The 2.8 mm setting gives the widest view for large areas; the 12 mm setting narrows the angle for detail at distance. You can adjust anywhere between 2.8 and 12 mm during installation.

What does 700 TV lines mean on a 960H recorder?

700 TV lines is the horizontal resolution the camera delivers. A 960H DVR records at 960 × 508 pixels, so the camera's 700-line detail is fully captured without upscaling.

How far do the 42 IR LEDs reach in total darkness?

The 42 IR LEDs provide 0 lux illumination. Effective night-view distance depends on scene reflectivity and lens setting; the camera does not quote a fixed metre figure.
