The Mace SD-626-I is an industrial grade PTZ dome camera perfectly qualified for securing banks, malls, office buildings, government facilities and similar commercial surveillance environments. Its durable PTZ mechanism offers a powerful 26x optical zoom, fast pan and tilt movements and 80 preset positions. There is also a full complement of important supporting features like window blanking, auto rotation and various tour modes.

One shouldn't get caught up in its mechanical aspects, however, and forget to mention the camera's outstanding image quality. Thanks to a Sony ExView CCD generating 530 lines of resolution, this camera is able to maintain well defined images in both ideal and less than ideal lighting situations. Furthermore, this camera makes use of a true Day/Night function to ensure dependable security monitoring in a 24-hour surveillance environment.

This camera is housed in a durable metal casing, and is designed for indoor installation inside a hard or drop ceiling. Once installed, only the lower dome with its white trim ring will remain visible. This design will help it blend in with its surrounding decor in a general security environment.

Excellent Low Light Performance

A Sony ExView CCD and a Day/Night function work hand-in-hand to ensure that images remain well defined both day and night and in poor and difficult lighting situations. ExView's call to fame is its ability to increase a CCD's sensitivity to light by a factor of two for visible light and a factor of four for infrared wavelengths. Day/Night's mission is to auto switch the camera, via an IR cut filter, from color to a light sensitive black and white mode when light levels fall.

• Heavy Duty PTZ Mechanism

A heavy duty belt PTZ mechanism reinforced with steel threading ensures years of dependable operation of the level expected in professional, round-the-clock security environments. Furthermore, this camera utilizes a stepping motor to allow users to make precise, variable speed pan, tilt and zoom adjustments.

• High Speed Pan & Tilt

Utilizing a keyboard controller or a Mace DVR, an operator can move the camera's pointing direction at speeds up to 180° a second for pan and up to 90° a second for tilt. This degree of motion will allow an operator to quickly follow a suspicious person or object before they have a chance to move out of the camera's range. In preset mode, P/T movements are possible at even faster speeds.
