ACTi E618 3MP Indoor Zoom Dome
Overview
The ACTi E618 is a 3MP indoor dome camera with 4.3x optical zoom and Superior WDR, designed for retail floors, office corridors, and indoor commercial spaces where you need variable focal length without mounting multiple fixed-lens cameras. The dome form factor mounts flush to ceilings or walls, keeping the camera discrete while the motorized zoom lens lets you adjust coverage after installation without opening the enclosure.
Compatibility
The E618 integrates with any VMS or NVR system supporting ONVIF Profile S or higher. Verify your existing NVR or software supports H.264 and MJPEG playback before specifying. Confirm PoE power availability on your network switch—this camera draws power via standard Ethernet, so no separate power supply is needed if your switch has available budget.
Installation Notes
Mount the dome to a standard ceiling or wall box using the included bracket hardware. Ensure the camera is positioned to avoid direct sun glare on the lens—Superior WDR mitigates some glare effects, but it cannot recover blown-out images from direct sun at close range. Wire the RJ-45 Ethernet port to your PoE-capable switch or injector. Test zoom focus after installation—motorized zoom requires a clear line of sight to the subject area to dial in proper focus.
