Perfect for monitoring large areas, the Panasonic BB-HCM527A is a dome ceiling-mounted network camera featuring a 73-degree wide-angle lens. The camera also offers 4.6 zoom so you can zero on specific details within the full field of view for identification purposes. Because the BB-HCM527A operates using Power over Ethernet (PoE), it can be installed anywhere along your network, even locations without readily available power outlets. With PoE, a standard Ethernet cable is all that's required to supply power to the camera.
The Panasonic BB-HCM527A can stream full VGA resolution video at up to 30 frames per second. Users can view monitor and store video footage remotely. The camera offers simultaneous MPEG-4 and JPEG compression to reduce video file sizes for remote viewing and recording. MPEG-4 is recommended for live viewing of smooth motion video, while JPEG is recommended for recording of high-quality images.
Another key feature of the BB-HCM527A is progressive scan technology. Progressive scanning allows the camera to capture clear video images of objects in motion. This process eliminates the problem of blurring caused by interlace scanning. Other highlights of the Panasonic BB-HCM527A include built-in motion detection, and SSL support for delivering secure encrypted data over the network.
