| The IR Domehawk features built-in infra-red illumination |
It has high performance IR LEDs that turn on automatically when the camera switches to black and white mode as light conditions change. The invisible IR beam moves with the dome to only illuminate the area that the camera is looking at instead of trying to floodlight the whole area.
According to Martin Brownlow, CCTV Manager at Fylde Borough Council: "The MEL IR Domehawk will enable us to effectively monitor unlit areas both day and night to reduce anti-social behaviour."
Transmission is via COFDM Video and UHF Telemetry used enabling high quality, interference free images to be received at distances of up to 4km without requiring line of sight. IR Domehawk is available in 1.3GHz, 2.4GHz, and 5.8GHz bands and multiple cameras can be deployed within a single frequency. It is compatible with all existing MEL rapid deployment kits.
According to Peter Druzyc, Managing Director of MEL Secure Systems: "This new camera system meets the increasing demand for energy-saving solutions whilst delivering the highest level of performance in any application."
