i-PRO WV-S2536LNA Overview
The i-PRO WV-S2536LNA is a 2MP (1080p) outdoor vandal-resistant dome network camera designed for fixed perimeter surveillance in commercial, institutional, and critical infrastructure deployments. Built on the i-PRO S-series platform with integrated AI engine capability, this camera combines robust mechanical protection (IP66, IK10 certified) with enterprise-grade cybersecurity (FIPS 140-2 Level 3 SecureElement with EdgeLock® SE050F from NXP Semiconductors) and NDAA compliance, making it suitable for federal, state, and local government procurement as well as sensitive security integrations.
i-PRO WV-S2536LNA Key Features
- 1/2.8" CMOS Sensor with Extreme Low-Light Sensitivity: 1080p resolution (1920×1080) via 1/2.8" CMOS sensor; color minimum illumination as low as 0.007 lux (30IRE, F1.3, 1/30s, AGC:11) and black & white at 0 lux with IR LED enabled, enabling reliable day/night surveillance in near-total darkness without compromise to image quality.
- Built-in IR LED with 70-Meter Range: Integrated infrared LED array provides up to 70 meters (230 feet) of illumination in complete darkness, eliminating the need for external IR lighting infrastructure on outdoor pole or wall mounts.
- Advanced Video Processing and Dynamic Range: 144 dB maximum dynamic range (Super Dynamic mode, level 31) combined with adaptive black stretch, backlight compensation (BLC), highlight compensation (HLC), and fog compensation algorithms; intelligent auto exposure control with on/off toggle maintains image clarity across extreme lighting transitions (e.g., dawn/dusk, vehicle headlights, reflective surfaces).
- Multi-Codec Compression Support: H.265, H.264, and MJPEG encoding options allow flexible trade-offs between bandwidth, storage, and frame rate; shutter speed control from 1/10000 fix (high-speed motion) to 16/30 seconds (extended low-light integration).
- Up to 2 Edge AI Analytic Applications: Built-in AI engine supports concurrent deployment of two edge-based analytic plugins; motion detection (VMD), scene change detection (SCD), and audio detection with AI sound classification are available, enabling real-time event filtering and reduced backend processing load.
- Vandal-Resistant Mechanical Design: IK10 impact resistance rated to withstand severe mechanical stress; aluminum die-cast main body in i-PRO white finish; compact form factor (ø154 mm × 105 mm height, 1.1 kg) with wind resistance up to 40 m/s (89 mph) ensures durability in high-exposure outdoor installations including transit hubs, parking facilities, and perimeter fencing.
- IP66 Weatherproofing: Full ingress protection against dust and high-pressure water jets from any direction; suitable for rooftop, eave, and exposed vertical mounting in precipitation-heavy climates without additional environmental enclosures.
- FIPS 140-2 Level 3 Certified SecureElement: EdgeLock® SE050F hardware security module provides cryptographic key storage and secure element operations, preventing unauthorized firmware modification and credential extraction; complies with federal FIPS 140-2 Level 3 requirements for sensitive government and critical infrastructure networks.
- NDAA Compliance: Camera meets National Defense Authorization Act requirements, certified for use in federally funded and government-adjacent security deployments with no Huawei or ZTE component restrictions.
- Digital Noise Reduction: Temporal and spatial noise filtering optimizes video quality at elevated ISO gains without introducing excessive motion blur or artifacts in surveillance footage.
- Flexible White Balance Control: Automatic tracking (ATW1, ATW2) or manual area-based white balance (AWC) supports mixed-lighting outdoor scenes and sodium-vapor streetlight environments.
i-PRO WV-S2536LNA Integration & Compatibility
The WV-S2536LNA is a standards-compliant ONVIF network camera suitable for integration with any ONVIF-compatible VMS platform (Milestone Xprotect, Genetec Security Center, Exacq, etc.) as well as i-PRO native management via i-PRO Compact NVRs and IP camera management software. Network connectivity is via standard RJ45 Ethernet with PoE power delivery. All video, audio, and metadata streams conform to ONVIF specifications, enabling multi-vendor deployments and future VMS migration without proprietary lock-in. Mounting options include ceiling and wall surfaces via standard dome camera bracket hardware (not included).
