i-PRO WV-U35301-F2LG 2MP Outdoor Compact Dome IP Camera

i-PRO WV-U35301-F2LG 2MP Outdoor Dome Camera

The i-PRO WV-U35301-F2LG is a compact 2MP outdoor dome camera engineered for demanding surveillance environments. Built on the Ambarella S3LM system-on-chip, this fixed-lens camera delivers robust color and infrared imaging across extended temperature ranges (–30°C to +50°C), making it ideal for perimeter monitoring, facility entrances, parking areas, and industrial outdoor applications where durability and reliable night vision are critical.

Key Features

• 2MP CMOS Sensor with Ultra-Wide 123° Field of View — 1/2.8" CMOS image sensor captures 1920×1080 resolution at 30 fps (or 25 fps). The 2.4mm fixed focal length delivers 123° horizontal and 69° vertical coverage in 16:9 mode, minimizing blind spots in compact deployment zones.
• Advanced IR Night Vision to 14 Meters — Integrated IR LED illumination extends detection range to approximately 14 meters (46 ft) at 30IRE quality, with 10-meter range at 50IRE. Automatic color-to-monochrome switching (ICR) with selectable IR intensity (High/Middle/Low/Off) enables true 24/7 surveillance without supplemental lighting.
• Extreme Low-Light Color Sensitivity — Achieves color imaging at 0.22 lx (30IRE, F2.1) and 0.32 lx (50IRE, F2.1). Monochrome sensitivity reaches 0.13 lx with IR disabled and 0 lx with IR LED engaged. Maximum F2.1 aperture maximizes photon capture for twilight and interior surveillance.
• IP66-Rated Weatherproof Design — Aluminum die-cast main body with PC resin front panel withstands rain, dust, and salt spray. IK10 vandal rating resists physical tampering.
• PoE Powered with Minimal Power Draw — Class 2 PoE device consuming only 8.6W (180mA @ 48V DC), reducing infrastructure costs. Flexible wired connectivity via 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet.
• Advanced Image Processing — Super Dynamic Range up to 120 dB, fog compensation, backlight/highlight compensation, and digital noise reduction (0–255 levels) deliver clear images in challenging lighting.
• Multiple Recording Modes — H.265/H.264 codecs with constant bit rate, VBR, frame rate, and best-effort transmission. Supports up to 14 simultaneous users over TCP/IP, UDP/IP, HTTP, HTTPS, RTSP, and MQTT protocols.
• Flexible Motion & Event Detection — Video motion detection (4 zones), scene change detection (1 zone), privacy masking (8 zones), and VIQS analytics (8 zones) enable intelligent alarm triggering and SD card recording.
• Configurable Installation — Pan ±45°, tilt 0–90°, yaw ±90° adjustment angles accommodate various mounting orientations. DORI metrics: detect 22.2m, observe 8.9m, recognize 4.4m, identify 2.2m.

The WV-U35301-F2LG occupies a unique niche: a compact, weatherproof dome with extreme wide-angle coverage and professional-grade low-light performance. The 123° horizontal field of view is exceptional for a 2MP fixed-lens design, making it valuable for entrance monitoring where installation space is tight. The F2.1 aperture and 0.22 lx color sensitivity rival cameras in higher MP categories, and the IR range to 14 meters provides genuine night vision without external lighting infrastructure.

The IK10 vandal rating combined with aluminum construction suits high-risk outdoor environments. PoE Class 2 operation (8.6W) is exceptionally efficient, allowing daisy-chain deployments from modest power budgets. Support for H.265 reduces bandwidth on large camera counts, while ONVIF Profile G/S/T ensures integration with third-party NVRs and VMS platforms. Motion detection with 4 independent zones and SD card failover deliver localized event capture without reliance on central storage.

Limitations include fixed focal length (no zoom) and 2MP resolution, which restrict long-distance identification tasks. The 10-meter 50IRE range is adequate for access control but marginal for perimeter applications exceeding 15 meters. Super Dynamic Range (120 dB) and fog compensation mitigate backlit and adverse weather scenarios, though these require tuning. Ideal applications: retail and office building entrances, small parking lots, warehouse dock doors, and campus pathway monitoring where durability, low cost-of-ownership, and field-of-view take priority over zoom or mega-pixel resolution.
