VIVOTEK Inc. FD9186-H 5MP 2.8mm Fixed Dome Network Camera

5MP Fixed Dome IP Camera

The Vivotek FD9186-H is a compact indoor dome camera that delivers 5MP video at up to 30fps through a 2.8mm fixed lens. It connects via RJ45 and supports ONVIF for integration with standard surveillance platforms. Built-in IR illuminators provide night vision up to 30 meters while the 111° horizontal field of view covers wide indoor areas.

Upgrade from Basic Fixed Cameras

This model replaces simpler fixed-lens cameras that lack smart analytics or advanced cyber protection. The jump is worth it when you need Vision Object Analytics to distinguish people and vehicles, reducing false alarms. Smart VCA adds accurate rule-based detection while Trend Micro IoT Security hardens the device against brute-force and cyberattack events.

Installers Needing Analytics and Hardened Security

It suits installers and system integrators who require object classification, robust encryption (TLS 1.2/1.3) and local backup on MicroSD cards up to 1TB. Buyers who need motorised pan-tilt-zoom, varifocal lenses or outdoor-rated housings should look at other form factors.
