Security Professionals Gain More Options with Expanded Line of Toshiba PTZ Cameras featuring 20x Optical Zoom
Designed to take on the most intensive video surveillance demands
IRVINE, CA, August 5, 2015 -- Toshiba Surveillance & IP Video Products, a business unit of Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., is giving security integrators, dealers and end-users more options by introducing two Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) 3MP IP dome cameras, both featuring 20x optical zoom and delivering razor-sharp HDTV streaming video for applications requiring highly detailed surveillance.
INDOOR/OUTDOOR CAMERAS
Toshiba's new IKS-WP8203R PTZ camera is designed to operate in the harsh outdoors with its IP66 enclosure protection, integrated heater and auto defogging, while the new IKS-WP8103 PTZ provides an attractive indoor solution for covering large spaces such as shopping malls, casinos or schools.
True Day/Night imaging with Digital Wide Dynamic Range empower both cameras to capture images in high contrast and changing light conditions down to 0.01 lux. In addition to 24V, both cameras are powered with PoE+ which eliminates the need for power cables and reduces installation cost. Also, both are backed by ONVIF Profile S to ensure seamless interoperability with third-party ONVIF-conforming equipment and software.
20X OPTICAL ZOOM
A core benefit of the new PTZ cameras is powerful, built-in optical zoom capability. It enables up to 20x optical magnification and achieves quick subject tracking through a high-speed auto focusing system so operators can react instantly to suspicious situations. The cameras' ability to precisely identify small details, such as car licenses or facial features, means they are suitable for users that demand enhanced detail when zooming in, plus makes them ideal to handle installations where detailed coverage of longer distances is essential including airports, borders, roads, cities and campuses.
Superior image quality is matched by the cameras' versatile, high-speed 360° continuous pan that achieves surveillance of large areas without blind spots, and its precision -10° to 190° tilt drive offering almost instant preset positioning. Equipped with 256 presets, pattern tour, autoscan and auto flip, nothing escapes the cameras' PTZ.
