Bosch NUV-3702-F02 FLEXIDOME micro 3100i 2MP Indoor Dome Camera

Bosch NUV-3702-F02 Network Surveillance Dome Camera

The Bosch NUV-3702-F02 is a fixed-dome network surveillance camera engineered for mixed indoor and outdoor deployments requiring robust environmental resilience and flexible optical performance. This 2MP IP camera operates on standard PoE (802.3af) power delivery, eliminating the need for dedicated electrical runs while maintaining full operational capability across day and night monitoring scenarios.

Overview

The NUV-3702-F02 delivers 1920 x 1080 resolution video capture with multi-codec flexibility, supporting H.265, H.264, and MJPEG compression formats. The varifocal lens design permits field-adjustable focal length optimization post-installation, reducing the need for lens swaps during system commissioning. Day/night infrared capability enables consistent surveillance across 24-hour cycles without illumination dependence, making this model suitable for perimeter monitoring, access point coverage, and storage facility applications where lighting control is impractical.

Key Features

• 2MP Resolution (1920 x 1080): Sufficient detail for facial recognition at 10-15 feet and license plate capture in optimal conditions
• Varifocal Lens: Field-adjustable focal length eliminates pre-installation focal length specification uncertainty
• PoE (802.3af): Single cable deployment reduces infrastructure cost and installation labor; compatible with standard managed PoE switches
• IP66 Rated Enclosure: Dust-sealed and water-jet resistant; suitable for outdoor mounting without supplemental weatherproofing
• IK08 Vandal Resistance: Impact-rated to withstand 5 joule strikes; appropriate for accessible outdoor or semi-public indoor locations
• Day/Night Infrared: IR emitter enables monochrome surveillance in zero ambient light; automatic filter switching optimizes color reproduction in daylight
• Multi-Codec Support: H.265 compression reduces bandwidth 40-50% versus H.264 at equivalent quality; MJPEG available for legacy VMS compatibility
• Built-in Microphone: Audio capture supported for two-way communication or event correlation
• Fixed Dome Form Factor: Compact profile minimizes visual profile; ceiling or wall mountable

Integration & Compatibility

The NUV-3702-F02 connects via standard Ethernet (10Base-T/100Base-TX) and operates on ONVIF-compliant protocols, ensuring interoperability with third-party VMS platforms including Milestone XProtect, Genetec Security Center, and vendor-specific management software. The camera's PoE power signature (typical draw under 12.95W) permits daisy-chaining through standard 60W or 95W PoE injectors or switch ports rated for midspan delivery.

H.265 codec support reduces storage requirements for continuous recording installations. Bandwidth-constrained deployments benefit from MJPEG fallback for compatibility with older network infrastructure or bandwidth-limited WAN links. The varifocal lens accommodates installation scenarios where exact focal length cannot be predetermined, shortening integration timelines in field retrofit applications.

Deployment Environments

IP66 rating confirms suitability for exterior mounting exposed to rain, spray, or washdown environments. IK08 vandal resistance qualifies the NUV-3702-F02 for semi-public indoor locations, outdoor sheltered areas, and perimeter fence-line applications. The fixed-dome design integrates into architectural ceiling voids or wall-mounted brackets without motorized pan-tilt-zoom mechanisms, simplifying cabling and reducing power draw compared to PTZ alternatives.
