AutoDome 300 Series PTZ Camera System
Bosch's AutoDome modular camera system is a
revolutionary new concept in dome cameras. More than
just a series of cameras, it's a dome platform built around
a system of intelligent, interchangeable modules that
allow you to update camera functionality quickly and cost-
effectively. Using common components lets you install a
basic camera system today and migrate to a more
advanced version tomorrow – without having to replace
the entire dome, thus protecting your initial investment.
Interchangeable modules
The entire AutoDome system is based on five
interchangeable modules: the CPU, camera, housing,
communications, and power supply. Simply swap one of
AutoDome's interchangeable modules and quickly
upgrade from analog to IP, color to day/night, or add
motion detection. Never before have you had the ability to
adapt a security system to your changing needs this
quickly or inexpensively.
By using the same housing components, all installations
have a consistent look, and observers have no idea which
type of camera (if any) is watching over them. This
unique, modular design also gives you the flexibility to
move cameras between different housings when special
coverage is needed, or as site plan requirements change.
▶ High-speed PTZ dome
▶ Fully interchangeable CPUs, cameras, housings,
communications, and mounts
▶ Choice of 540 TVL 36x day/night night camera with
128x wide dynamic range or 26x and 18x day/night
cameras
▶ Optional hybrid operation provides simultaneous
analog (coax) and IP connectivity
▶ Advanced privacy masking
▶ Advanced alarm control with rules engine
▶ UTP transmission standard on all analog models
▶ Cable compensation extends cabling distances
▶ Multi-protocol capable
▶ Three-year warranty
For example, an 18x PTZ camera over a specific area
could easily be "hot-swapped" to a 26x or 36x day/night
without removing the power.
Migrating from a basic dome to one with advanced
features such as AutoTrack II intelligent tracking can be
done quickly and easily, without requiring dome removal
or rewiring. AutoDome's Ethernet communications
module allows you to add IP functionality while
maintaining connectivity to existing analog inputs and
outputs.
300 Series highlights
The AutoDome 300 Series includes support for 18x, 26x,
and the industry-leading 36x day/night PTZ cameras, and
several advanced features – including an alarm
management "rules" engine and privacy masking.
The AutoDome 300 Series supports a variety of standard
and optional video and data transmission methods,
including Bilinx (over coax and UTP), fiber, and even TCP/
IP over Ethernet. Remote control, configuration, and
firmware updates can also be performed over these
cables, offering you unparalleled control of your cameras.
Cable compensation provides extended coaxial and UTP
distance runs while preventing the image quality
degradation caused by signal losses from long cable
lengths.
