Technical Highlights
The Sarix Enhanced 3 positions above the Sarix Pro 4 line by combining edge analytics with deeper WDR capability—ideal for entrance canopies, parking structures, and south-facing facades where contrast swings exceed 100 dB. H.265 Smart Compression reduces bandwidth and storage footprint while maintaining image quality. All profiles support HTTPS encryption for secure network transport.
Note: This model does not include integrated IR. Pair with a Pelco IRH-series illuminator for low-light operation. Confirm your VMS supports H.265 decoding before enabling Smart Compression for optimal performance.
Applications
Suited for outdoor perimeter monitoring, transit hubs, retail parking areas, and facilities requiring robust vandal resistance and wide dynamic range in mixed lighting.
