Technical Highlights
The IBE238-1ER combines advanced compression and edge analytics to minimize bandwidth without sacrificing image quality. H.265 Smart Compression can reduce file sizes by up to 50% compared to H.264 at equivalent quality—provided your VMS supports H.265 decoding. On-board Smart Analytics process motion, loitering, and object-left events directly on the camera, reducing server load and enabling faster alerting.
The 130 dB WDR engine manages extreme lighting transitions, making the camera suitable for entry points and outdoor loading areas. Gyro EIS compensates for vibration from nearby traffic or wind, ensuring stable video in exposed mounting locations.
Applications
Ideal for perimeter fences, gate lanes, parking lot entrances, and building facades where compact form factor and IR capability are essential. The IK10 rating and sealed construction withstand vandalism and harsh weather.
Note: For IR distances exceeding 50m, supplement with a Pelco IRH-series illuminator. The 5-year warranty covers parts and labor.
