Geovision 84-CB120-D01U 1.3MP Cube Camera
Overview
The Geovision 84-CB120-D01U is a 1.3MP indoor cube camera designed for retail, office, and corridor deployments where a compact form factor and straightforward integration matter more than maximum resolution. The cube housing mounts flush to ceilings or walls without the visual bulk of dome or turret designs, making it practical for environments where camera visibility affects customer perception or workspace aesthetics. H.264 compression delivers efficient streaming and storage—roughly 40–50% smaller file sizes than motion JPEG at equivalent quality, a real factor when recording multiple cameras 24/7 on modest NVR storage.
Compatibility
The 84-CB120-D01U outputs standard H.264 video over Ethernet, making it compatible with any ONVIF-capable network video management system—Milestone, Axis Camera Station, Geovision's own GV-VMS, or third-party recorders supporting H.264 decode. PoE (802.3af) power means a single Cat5e or Cat6 run delivers both network and power; standard enterprise PoE switches (48-port, 95W budget models) support 6–8 of these cameras without strain. No proprietary integrations required.
Installation Notes
The 84-CB120-D01U draws under 13W via 802.3af PoE, so power budgeting is straightforward on any managed PoE switch. Mount to standard electrical boxes, suspended ceilings, or drywall anchors rated for roughly 1–2 lbs. No fans, no separate 12V power supply, no special wiring—install is effectively run cable, mount bracket, confirm video in your VMS, and move on.
