i-PRO WV-U25551-V3L 5MP AI Outdoor Dome Camera

The i-PRO WV-U25551-V3L is a 5MP outdoor vandal-resistant dome camera engineered for security integrators deploying edge AI analytics in mission-critical environments. Built on i-PRO's U-series platform, this camera combines high-resolution imaging with integrated AI capabilities, delivering intelligence at the edge without reliance on external processing. Purpose-designed for harsh outdoor conditions, it provides both imaging clarity and robust security certifications for compliance-driven deployments.

Key Features

• 5MP Resolution: 1/2.8" CMOS sensor captures detailed imagery for reliable identification and forensic review across diverse outdoor deployments
• 3.2x Motorized Optical Zoom: Varifocal lens (3.2–10.2mm, F1.6) allows flexible focal length adjustment post-deployment without quality loss
• Extreme Low-Light Performance: Minimum illumination reaches 0.006 lx in color mode and 0.003 lx in black-and-white mode with AGC support
• Built-in IR LED: 28-meter (92 ft) maximum infrared irradiation distance for 24/7 perimeter and facility monitoring without supplemental lighting
• Wide Dynamic Range (WDR): Advanced image processing adapts to challenging lighting conditions across outdoor scenes
• Day/Night Capability: Automatic IR cut filter and low-light optimization enable round-the-clock surveillance
• Vandal-Resistant Design: IK10 vandal rating and IP66/NEMA 4X weatherproofing for exposed installations
• Audio Support: Integrated microphone for two-way communication and incident audio verification
• Multiple Compression Formats: H.265, H.264, and MJPEG video encoding for flexible bandwidth and storage optimization
• MicroSD Expansion: Local storage support for extended recording and edge-based analytics processing

Security & Compliance

• Signed Firmware & Secure Boot: Protect against unauthorized firmware modifications and ensure boot integrity
• HTTPS Encryption: Encrypted communication for management and streaming to prevent data interception
• ONVIF Compatibility: Vendor-neutral integration with third-party VMS and security platforms

Connectivity & Power

• PoE (Class 0): Powered over Ethernet for simplified single-cable installation and reduced site infrastructure costs
• Ethernet-Based: Native IP connectivity for seamless network integration and remote management

Applications

Ideal for outdoor perimeter protection, facility entrances, parking areas, and campus surveillance where high resolution, low-light capability, and vandal resistance are critical. The integrated AI-VMD support enables motion-triggered alerts and intelligent video analytics without dedicated edge servers, reducing total cost of ownership for integrators.

Perspective based on aggregated IP Security Depot and affiliated engineering team experience.

The WV-U25551-V3L addresses a growing demand for edge-based AI surveillance in outdoor environments where network bandwidth and processing overhead are constraints. The combination of 5MP resolution, 3.2x optical zoom, and sub-0.006 lx low-light sensitivity provides both wide-area coverage and forensic detail capture. The 28-meter IR throw and f/1.6 aperture eliminate the need for supplemental outdoor lighting in most perimeter applications, reducing operational expense.

IK10 vandalism protection and IP66/NEMA 4X ingress ratings ensure long service life in exposed and industrial settings. For integrators prioritizing compliance, the signed firmware, secure boot, and HTTPS encryption provide baseline security assurance. ONVIF compatibility ensures deployment flexibility across heterogeneous VMS ecosystems, while the Android-based OS and local microSD storage enable on-device motion analytics without cloud or third-party dependencies.
