The DCS-6513 has an IP67 certified weatherproof housing designed for both indoor and outdoor applications. The built-in removable IR-cut filter and IR LEDs gives the DCS-6513 the capability to view up to 60 feet at night. The DCS-6513 also incorporates Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing it to be easily installed in a variety of locations without the need for supplemental power cabling.
The DCS-6513 monitors and automatically regulates its temperature to ensure optimal performance even in extreme conditions. It balances fan use against a built in heater based on a range of preset thermostatic settings. This gives the DCS-6513 the ability to perform in the most demanding of environments.
