Pelco VB-440-64-VF-N NDAA Body-Worn Camera
Overview
The Pelco VB-440-64-VF-N is an NDAA-compliant body-worn camera purpose-built for law enforcement, corrections, and public safety personnel who require portable, shift-long evidence documentation with federal supply-chain compliance. It captures 1920×1080 Full HD video using H.265 and H.264 compression—the dual-codec approach cuts storage overhead by roughly 40–50% versus H.264 alone, meaningful when managing hundreds of camera-hours across a patrol fleet. The IP67 rating means immersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes is acceptable; dust ingress won't disable the unit in typical field environments. Compact form factor (2.7" W × 3.5" H × 1.04" D, 5.7 oz) distributes weight across chest-mount or belt attachment without dragging on extended shifts.
Compatibility
The VB-440-64-VF-N integrates with Pelco VideoManager 12.1 or later for fleet provisioning, evidence management, and audit compliance. Dual-microphone audio capture feeds incident context alongside video—pair with your existing dispatch or case-management software via RFID assignment workflows (enable pooled camera checkout or personal accountability). Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR and BLE 4.2 enable wireless pairing to docking stations for rapid evidence offload without USB cabling at shift change. GPS module records location metadata, so you can geotag incidents and cross-reference with dispatch logs or CAD systems. Software-driven configuration allows five hardware switches to trigger recording, bookmarking, or peer-assisted recording (activates recording on nearby VB400 units within a configurable radius for multi-officer corroboration).
Installation Notes
Integral, non-user-serviceable lithium-polymer battery delivers up to 12 hours under optimized settings—no field swaps required. Recharge cycle typically completes in under 8 hours. Low-light performance rated to 0.2 lux with 120° horizontal capture angle (65° vertical, 140° diagonal). Software-configurable LED, audible, and vibration alerts notify officers of recording status and battery state. Pre-record and post-record buffering (up to 2 minutes) captures critical moments before manual activation. Deploy with VideoManager licenses for each officer to enable centralized policy enforcement, retention scheduling, and compliance reporting.
