ACTi A314 6MP Mini Bullet Camera

The A314 is a compact 6MP fixed bullet designed for outdoor perimeter and area surveillance where extreme weather sealing, vandal resistance, and low-light performance are non-negotiable. This is the right choice when you need a single camera to handle bright daylight, deep shadow, and near-total darkness without separate lighting infrastructure.

Overview

The A314 combines 6MP resolution with extreme WDR (150dB) to capture usable detail in mixed-light scenes—sun-blasted loading docks and dim recessed areas in the same frame. At 0.003 lux minimum illumination with active IR, the camera delivers night vision without auxiliary lighting. The 2.8mm fixed lens provides a 103.6° horizontal field of view, suitable for perimeter fence lines, building corners, and general outdoor coverage where zoom is not required. IP68 rating means full dust and submersion protection; IK10 impact rating handles vandal strikes. Operating range of −40°C to +60°C ensures reliability in arctic and desert climates. Triple codec support (H.265, H.264, MJPEG) at up to 30 fps adapts to bandwidth constraints and legacy system requirements.

Power and Network

Supports PoE++ (802.3bt Class 3) for single-cable deployment, eliminating separate power runs. Legacy DC 12V is also supported. RJ-45 pigtail connector simplifies field termination. ONVIF compliance (Profiles S, G, T, M) ensures third-party VMS integration without proprietary gateways.

Analytics and Integration

On-board Deep Learning (DLPU) and Video Motion Detection (VMD) enable lightweight edge analytics without requiring external compute. Manual GPS position setting allows geo-tagging across multi-site operations.

Durability

Pole-mount design fits standard surveillance brackets. Mechanical IR cut filter switches between day and night modes automatically. The compact 71×71×170mm form factor minimizes visual footprint while maintaining robust aluminum construction rated for corrosive environments and high-impact zones.
