i-PRO WV-X15501-Z3L Overview
The i-PRO WV-X15501-Z3L is a 5MP outdoor infrared bullet camera engineered for long-range surveillance with embedded edge AI analytics. Equipped with 30x optical zoom optics (4.5-135mm motorized varifocal lens), advanced low-light performance, and built-in thermal IR with 180-meter (591-foot) range, this camera delivers comprehensive coverage for perimeter security, parking lots, and critical infrastructure monitoring. The camera combines military-grade cybersecurity (FIPS 140-2 Level 3 SecureElement with EdgeLock® SE050F) and NDAA compliance, making it suitable for federal, enterprise, and sensitive security integrations.
i-PRO WV-X15501-Z3L Key Features
- 5MP 1/2.8-inch CMOS sensor with 5.12mm (H) Ă— 3.84mm (V) scanning area delivers sharp detail at distance, critical for forensic identification in outdoor environments.
- 30x motorized optical zoom (4.5-135mm, F1.8) enables remote focus adjustment without camera repositioning, ideal for wide-to-tight framing across expansive surveillance zones.
- Built-in IR LED array rated to 180m (591ft) provides full-color-to-B&W switchable night vision with zero-lux performance (IR on), eliminating blind spots in complete darkness.
- Extreme low-light performance: color mode as low as 0.06 lux (30IRE, F1.8, 1/30s, AGC:11); B&W as low as 0.0031 lux (50IRE, F1.8, 16/30s, AGC:11) with Super Dynamic mode—suitable for airports, perimeter fencing, and unlit parking facilities.
- IP66, IP67, and IK10 ratings ensure full dust ingress protection and immersion resistance to 1 meter, plus vandal-resistant housing rated for 50-joule impact events.
- Up to 9 edge AI analytic applications executed locally on the camera, supporting motion detection, scene change detection, and additional machine vision tasks without VMS overhead.
- Maximum 132 dB dynamic range (Super Dynamic: On, Level 31) with adaptive black stretch, back light/high light compensation, and fog compensation algorithms for challenging lighting transitions.
- Flexible shutter control supporting 25, 30, 50, and 60 fps frame rates with adjustable shutter from 1/10000s to 16/30s, enabling fine-tuned exposure and motion blur control.
- Multiple color balance modes: ATW1, ATW2, and AWC (auto white correct) for consistent image quality across varying light temperature conditions.
- FIPS 140-2 Level 3 compliant SecureElement (NXP® EdgeLock® SE050F) built-in for cryptographic key storage, firmware signing verification, and secure boot—meeting federal cybersecurity requirements without external hardware tokens.
- NDAA compliant design approved for U.S. federal government and sensitive commercial deployments, with no restricted components or supply-chain vulnerabilities.
- Professional integration support: ONVIF compatibility, audio input/output via optional I/O terminal, and SD memory card recording (AAC-LC format) for local backup or evidence archival.
i-PRO WV-X15501-Z3L Integration & Compatibility
The WV-X15501-Z3L supports ONVIF standard protocols, enabling seamless integration with ONVIF-compliant VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Exacq, and others) without proprietary codec or driver dependencies. Audio input and output are available via the optional WV-QCA501A I/O cable when using 12V DC power supplies, supporting two-way audio applications in integrated access control or emergency response scenarios. Local recording to microSD memory cards (AAC-LC audio codec) provides forensic-grade backup independent of network availability. The camera operates as a standard IP device over Ethernet 10Base-T/100Base-TX with standard web browser access and remote management capabilities.
