ConteraIP megapixel cameras

ConteraIP megapixel cameras are among the most feature-rich cameras available today for professional video surveillance, with world-class capabilities and affordability combined with Arecont Vision’s industry-leading designs. This new advanced series was first unveiled in April at ISC West 2018 as a complementary offering to Arecont Vision’s customer-proven, cyber-secure MegaIP camera family that is also part of the Total Video Solution.

Contera cameras feature H.264 and H.265 codecs, SNAPstream and SNAPstream+ bandwidth reduction technology
Single-sensor ConteraIP cameras are now available in indoor or outdoor dome, bullet, and micro bullet configurations, with choice of 2MP or 5MP capability across the entire product line. Both the ConteraIP and MegaIP camera families offer ONVIF compliance and integration with the ConteraVMS and dozens of other video management systems through MegaLab testing and validation.

“Our initial customers are already benefiting from use of the new ConteraIP family in a variety of application environments and VMS choices,” said Brad Donaldson, Vice President of Product Development for Arecont Vision. “We are very excited to be in full production with these powerful new cameras that are proving popular with our cloud- enabled ConteraVMS and with many MegaLab-pretested VMS and NVR choices that customers traditionally employ.”
