ACTi Z39 4MP Mini Bullet IP Camera
Overview
The ACTi Z39 is a 4MP mini bullet camera built for compact surveillance deployments where form factor and straightforward installation matter. The Z39 delivers sharp detail via 4MP resolution while staying power-efficient enough to run on standard PoE (802.3af)—meaning you won't need PoE+ or separate power supplies, a real advantage when integrating into existing network switch infrastructure. IP67 rating confirms full dust seal and temporary submersion tolerance, letting you mount in semi-protected outdoor or semi-indoor locations without special enclosures. H.265 and H.264 codec support ensures compatibility across different VMS platforms and storage architectures.
Compatibility
The Z39 integrates with any standard IP video management system supporting H.265 or H.264 streams over RTSP or HTTP protocols. Its PoE (802.3af) requirement means compatibility with any network switch or PoE injector rated for IEEE 802.3af delivery—no specialized power hardware needed. Built-in microphone audio output connects to VMS systems with audio input capability. MicroSD local storage support (card not included) adds resilience for sites with intermittent network connectivity or as a backup recording tier.
Installation Notes
Mount the Z39 via standard bullet bracket to wall, ceiling, or pendant installations. PoE power delivery arrives over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable—no separate 12V DC power run required. Fixed 2.8mm f1.6 lens is pre-focused; no lens adjustment is needed at install. The compact form factor (approximately 5 inches long) fits tight spaces above doorways, in corner mounts, or under eaves without the visual footprint of larger bullets. Verify your switch has available PoE budget: the Z39 draws under 13W typical operation, well within 802.3af limits (15.4W max delivery). For harsh outdoor use, confirm your mounting location allows the camera's stated operating temperature range and inspect the cable gland seal annually for moisture ingress in high-humidity environments.
