Speco Technologies O4KT1 4MP IP Turret Camera
Overview
The Speco Technologies O4KT1 is a 4MP fixed-lens turret camera designed for general surveillance in retail, office, and industrial settings where you need a durable, weather-resistant form factor with straightforward installation. The camera captures 2560 × 1440 resolution at up to 20 fps, supporting both H.265 and H.264 codecs — H.265 cuts bitrate roughly in half compared to H.264, which matters when streaming to bandwidth-constrained networks or storing 24/7 footage. The 2.8mm fixed lens provides a 98° horizontal field of view, suitable for area coverage without long-distance subject detail. IP67 rating means the O4KT1 handles rain and dust without sealed enclosure concerns, making it viable for covered outdoor mounting (eaves, awnings, loading dock soffits) as well as indoor walls and ceilings. Operates on standard PoE (IEEE 802.3af), drawing under 13W — no separate power supply required if your switch has sufficient budget. The O4KT1 includes full day/night operation with infrared (98 ft. range depending on scene reflection) and digital WDR processing to flatten mixed lighting (bright windows + shadowed interior). Built-in microphone and audio input support two-way communication and sound event monitoring. Full ONVIF compliance ensures compatibility with major VMS platforms without vendor lock-in. Backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty.
Compatibility
The O4KT1 is a standalone IP camera compatible with any ONVIF-compliant video management system — Milestone XProtect, Axis Camera Station, Genetec, and third-party platforms that support RTSP/HTTPS streaming. Integrates into mixed-vendor deployments without proprietary gateways. Works with standard PoE+ switches (802.3af minimum) and existing network infrastructure. Speco Blue mobile app (iOS and Android) provides remote viewing and configuration. Supports IPv4 and IPv6 networks, DHCP, static IP, and DNS failover (Speco DDNS free). No camera-specific mounting brackets or junction boxes required — standard wall and ceiling mounts accommodate the turret form factor.
Installation Notes
Mount on wall, ceiling, pole, or corner using standard hardware (not included). Pan 0°–360°, tilt 0°–75°, rotation 0°–360° for viewing angle adjustment. Requires RJ45 Ethernet connection; PoE extraction occurs at the camera connector. MicroSD card slot (up to 256GB; card not included) enables local edge recording or backup. Operating temperature range not specified in available documentation — verify environmental limits with manufacturer for extreme-temperature zones. Power supply not included if operating on 12VDC alternative (uses separate DC jack).
