MOBOTIX, manufacturer of complete, high-resolution IP video systems, presents the new M24M Allround camera. This successor to the very successful M22M has a new microprocessor and a modified system platform, which enables smooth video frame rates of up to 30 fps, even at a megapixel resolution.

Five interchangeable lenses with image angles ranging from 15° to 90° are available for the M24M. The 90° wide-angle lens allows an entire room to be monitored from just one corner. A 15° Telephoto lens enables the camera to clearly record a license plate number from a distance of approximately 75 metres. Or even the serial number of a bill from a distance of two metres.

Should the camera be used in constantly changing locations, for example, in mobile surveillance at construction sites, we recommend installing the version with CS mounts and manually adjustable Vario lenses. MOBOTIX also offers night versions with a particularly light-sensitive B/W image sensor for use in poor lighting conditions.

The M24M can also be configured for high-resolution, distortion-free panorama images using a hemispheric L11 lens (180° fisheye), digital PTZ and special MOBOTIX software. This makes it ideal for use in webcam applications that stand out from the crowd.

The M24M can be installed in just a few minutes and rotated to the desired tilt angle using the standard, flexibly adjustable VarioFlex Wall and Ceiling Mount. The weatherproof camera (IP66) can operate in temperatures ranging from -30°C to +60°C (-22°F to +140°F) and does not require a heater or a fan.

Thanks to the high-quality microphone/speaker combination, which eliminates echoes during hands-free operation, the camera can transmit lip-synchronous sound alongside high-resolution video and can record on a 4 GB MicroSD card integrated as standard. MicroSD cards of up to 32 GB are also supported.

The digital IP camera can be connected to a PC or router/switch with an Ethernet cable, which just as easy as connecting a printer. The same cable simultaneously supplies power to the camera according to the PoE standard. It is possible to access the live images and recordings remotely via an encrypted Internet connection.

The M24M Allround is available to order from the MOBOTIX online shop starting at 598 Euro net, fully ready for operation, including a lens, video management software and 4 GB storage card for over 60,000 VGA event images. The M24M-Sec with hemispheric panorama lens, 4 GB storage and complete software is available for 858 Euro net.
