Vivotek TB9333-E(3.5MM) S-series Bi-spectrum Thermal IP Bullet
Overview
The TB9333-E(3.5MM) is a bi-spectrum thermal IP bullet combining visible and thermal imaging in a single housing. Dual-lens architecture delivers synchronized visible-spectrum and long-wave thermal data, eliminating the need to manage two separate camera feeds for perimeter detection, facility monitoring, or environments where ambient light is unreliable (fog, smoke, extreme darkness). The 3.5mm visible lens provides a narrow horizontal field of view optimized for distance detection; thermal payload covers the same approximate area. This form factor—compact bullet with integrated thermal—suits fence lines, building entrances, and industrial perimeter zones where space is tight and rugged mounting is standard.
Compatibility
The TB9333-E(3.5MM) is part of Vivotek's S-series thermal camera line and outputs ONVIF-compliant streams, making it compatible with standard IP VMS platforms (Milestone, AXIS Camera Station, and other ONVIF-Profile-S recorders). Network integration requires standard PoE infrastructure; confirm PoE+ (802.3at) availability on your switch or injector. No proprietary interfaces—integrates with any network capable of receiving dual-stream RTSP feeds. Mounting follows standard bullet camera templates; verify your bracket or wall/pole clamp supports the model's weight and thermal dissipation requirements before field installation.
Installation Notes
Thermal cameras demand careful optics positioning. The 3.5mm visible lens and thermal sensor must be aligned to the same target area—misalignment defeats the dual-sensor advantage. Avoid installation behind glass or reflective surfaces; thermal wavelengths do not transmit through standard window panes. Mount in unobstructed sightlines with thermal clearance (avoid direct sun reflection or artificial heat sources positioned in front of the lens). Thermal calibration after installation may be needed if the unit is relocated; consult the commissioning guide for drift-correction procedures. Power draw and thermal dissipation are higher than visible-only cameras; ensure adequate ventilation, especially in hot climates or enclosed housings.
