Pelco MLX2830AA 850nm IR Illuminator 70deg

Pelco MLX2830AA 850nm IR Illuminator 70deg

The Pelco MLX2830AA is a professional-grade stainless steel IR illuminator designed to extend effective night-vision range for Pelco ExSite Pro camera systems. Operating at 850 nm wavelength with a 70-degree beam angle, this illuminator delivers reliable supplemental IR illumination for low-light and no-light outdoor surveillance applications.

Key Features

• 850 nm wavelength for extended effective night-vision range
• 70-degree beam angle for optimal field-of-view matching
• Stainless steel construction for outdoor durability
• Multiple power options: 24 Vdc, 24 Vac, or PoE
• Minimal visible glow for semi-covert operation
• NDAA Section 889 compliant for regulated installations
• 5-year warranty coverage

Technical Highlights

The 850 nm wavelength produces only a faint red glow visible on close inspection, making it suitable for installations requiring discrete operation without fully covert requirements. The 70-degree beam angle pairs seamlessly with standard ExSite Pro camera lenses to ensure even illumination across the target area. Flexible power delivery via 24 Vdc, 24 Vac, or PoE simplifies integration into existing surveillance infrastructure.

Applications

Ideal for commercial and industrial outdoor surveillance requiring supplemental IR illumination. Recommended for perimeter security, parking facilities, loading docks, and other environments where extended night-vision capability is essential. For fully covert operation with zero visible glow, Pelco's 940 nm IRN series illuminators are available at reduced range. For full-color night imaging, the MLX2W30AA white-light variant is an alternative option.
