Outdoor 20X Full HD WDR Speed Dome Network Camera

DCS-6915

The DCS-6915 Outdoor 20X Full HD WDR Speed Dome Network Camera is a high-definition professional surveillance and security solution suitable for small, medium, and large enterprises. The DCS-6915 features a 3 megapixel sensor capable of Full HD 1080p resolution, allowing for very clear surveillance footage to be taken. The powerful 20X optical zoom and 10X digital zoom ensure that you can see even the smallest details with ease.

Proportional Pan, Tilt, and Zoom Speeds

Proportional pan and tilt make it easy to precisely adjust the camera’s view. When the camera zooms in, the panning speed is automatically slowed to improve camera tracking and control. PTZ presets allow the camera to monitor specified areas along predefined paths. The broad tilt range from -10° to 190° allows the camera to see beyond the true horizon, meaning you can see more even when zoomed in.

Built for Tough Environments

Specially designed for use in challenging environments the DCS-6915 has a toughened metal, industry-certified IK-10 (vandal-proof) and IP66 (weather-proof) housing. This means that it is able to withstand sudden high impacts, as well as adverse weather conditions. With its built-in heater and fan, the camera can operate in extreme environments at temperatures ranging from -40 to 50 °C (-49  to 122 °F).

High-Quality Video

To maximise bandwidth efficiency and improve image quality, the DCS-6915 provides real-time video compression using the H.264 and MJPEG codecs. This versatility enables a wide variety of security applications, such as monitoring public areas to detect incidents and to coordinate responses, enforcing access control to restricted areas, deterring criminal activity, or monitoring inventory. Furthermore, bandwidth requirements can be adjusted in real-time over the network, and recorded video files can be saved to an internal MicroSD card1.

Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

IP surveillance cameras are often installed in areas with consistent lighting, like offices, banks or stores. This makes it easy to set exposure levels for optimal image quality. At other times, surveillance personnel are not so lucky. Doorways, glass walls or other areas that are exposed to direct or varying sunlight can create backlit or high contrast scenes. In such conditions, detail is lost in bright areas because of over-exposure and in dark areas because of low light. Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology overcomes these conditions by merging two images, one with a short exposure time to capture detail in the brighter parts of the image, and one with a longer exposure time to reveal detail in the darker areas. The resulting WDR image provides natural, balanced detail – a must in critical surveillance applications with tricky lighting conditions.

Removable IR Cut Filter for Continuous Monitoring

The IR Cut Filter can be manually applied, or set to automatically adjust based on lighting conditions. This feature enables the camera to capture crisp colour images during the daytime, and grayscale images in low-light.

Robust Management Software

The included D-ViewCam™ camera management software allows you to view up to 32 cameras on a single computer screen from a central location. Motion detection and digital input devices trigger automated e-mail alerts that can instantly inform administrators of unusual activities.

Overview

Compact and Strong

The DCS-6210 high resolution indoor/outdoor fixed dome camera is tough, vandal resistant, and weatherproof. Industry rated, it is extremely versatile and unobtrusive, easy to mount anywhere, and the fully adjustable 3-axis gimbal allows you to get the view you need. The rugged IP66-rated housing is designed for the harshest environments. Equipped with a high resolution 2 megapixel sensor to provide Full HD 1080p video, the DCS-6210 also comes with an SD card slot for local video storage. 

Built for Tough Environments

The DCS-6210 has a toughened metal, industry-certified IK10 (vandal proof) and IP66 (weatherproof) housing, specially designed for use in rugged environments, and built to withstand sudden high impact and adverse weather conditions. 

Flexible Installation

The DCS-6210 has a Power over Ethernet (PoE) port which allows you to connect the camera to your network and power it through a single cable. This both expands and simplifies your options by doing away with the need for a nearby power outlet, making installation on ceilings much easier. The DCS-6210 can alternatively be powered by 12VDC, which broadens installation options, including transportation and solar deployments. 

Surveillance in Full High Definition

The DCS-6210 is built with a 2 megapixel image sensor to provide both high-quality snapshots and video with resolutions up to 1920 x 1080. Get a closer look with ePTZ, which lets you zoom in, zoom out, and pan across your camera’s video so you can survey a large area easily. 

A Complete, Expandable Surveillance Solution

The DCS-6210 is a self-sufficient surveillance solution, capable of recording snapshots and video to a microSD card without requiring a PC or network storage device. If you want to expand your surveillance options, D-ViewCam management software is also included, giving you the ability to manage up to 32 cameras with a robust set of features, including multi-camera views and automated e-mail alerts to keep you informed of suspicious or unusual activities. 

Built for Versatility

The DCS-6210 comes with a wealth of features that enhance its surveillance capabilities, making it ideal for any situation. Its 3-axis lens mounting allows you to position it perfectly, while its motion detection capabilities allow it to automatically record video and send you a notification when motion is detected. 

Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF)

ONVIF is an open industry forum for the development of a global standard for the interface of IP-based physical security products. ONVIF identifies a standard for how IP products within video surveillance and other physical security areas can communicate with each other ensuring interoperability between products regardless of brand. The DCS-6210 is ONVIF-compliant and therefore compatible with many third party Video Management Software (VMS) solutions.
