The SPECO CVC-627 Waterproof Color Bullet Day/Night Camera with IR LEDs
is great for any outdoor application. Constructed of durable waterproof
aluminum, this camera comes with a removable sunshade that helps
eliminate glare and can even operate fully submerged in water. Designed
to provide a high-resolution picture even in low-light and no-light
conditions, the SPECO CVC-627 is a great addition to any video
surveillance system, especially in round-the-clock applications subject
to inclement weather conditions. This bullet camera utilizes a 0.25-inch color CCD (charge-coupled
device) image sensor with a 3.6-millimeter fixed lens, and provides
510-by-492 effective pixels. The CVC-627 has a high resolution of 420
horizontal TVL (TV lines), and achieves a S/N (signal-to-noise) ratio of
48 dB or better. Already extremely sensitive to light with a minimum
illumination of 0.01 Lux to infinity, this camera has 12 built-in IR
(InfraRed) LEDs (light emitting diodes) that allow it to receive a
picture in total darkness (0 Lux) up to 45 feet away, as well as a CDS
sensor that turns the IR illuminators on automatically when it gets dark.
The SPECO CVC-627 operates on the NTSC TV scanning system, and includes
a standard BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman) video output. This unit runs on
12-volts DC power and can operate in temperatures ranging from -14 to
120 degrees Fahrenheit. The CVC-627 comes complete with automatic gain
control and back-light compensation, and a built-in automatic electronic
shutter with speeds ranging from 1/60 to 1/100,000 of a second.

The SPECO CVC-627 camera provides you
with a high-quality color picture from a camera that can go virtually
anywhere, and deserves serious consideration as an addition to any
severe-weather security system. The CVC-627 comes completely assembled
and ready to use, and includes a 60-foot cable that allows you to place
it virtually anywhere. Users should note that the CCD sensor may become
permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or
halogen light, so the camera should not be mounted or pointed directly
at the sun or other bright-light sources. About Surveillance Camera Technical Features
Lux rating is the
measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light, and
stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle
from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three Lux would mean a camera
could generate an acceptable picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object
that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter
away. The lower the Lux level, the better the camera's ability to work
in low-light conditions. The camera's resolution should be greater than
or equal to the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor.
The S/N, or signal to noise ratio, is an important measure of a
camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring
causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera
with a wide dynamic range is ideal, especially for recording areas in
which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled
device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to
noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less
image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient.
