Features

The DCS-6915BS Outdoor 20X Full HD WDR Speed Smoked Dome Network Camera is a highdefinition professional surveillance and security solution suitable for small, medium, and large

Camera enterprises. The DCS-6915BS features a 3 megapixel sensor capable of Full HD 1080p resolution,

• Sony Exmor 1/2.8” progressive 3 megapixel

CMOS sensor allowing for very clear surveillance footage to be taken. The powerful 20X optical zoom and

10X digital zoom ensure that you can see even the smallest details with ease. Furthermore, the

• WDR for difficult or contrasting lighting conditions smoked dome offers an additional degree of surveillance by hiding the direction where the

• 20X optical zoom and 10X digital zoom

• F1.6 to F3.5 (W-T)

• ONVIF Compliant lens is actually pointing without affecting picture quality.

Proportional Pan, Tilt, and Zoom Speeds

Connections

• 10/100 Fast Ethernet port

• MicroSD card slot 1

• Audio in/out

• 4 alarm inputs/2 alarm outputs

Proportional pan and tilt make it easy to precisely adjust the camera’s view. When the camera zooms in, the panning speed is automatically slowed to improve camera tracking and control.

PTZ presets allow the camera to monitor specified areas along predefined paths. The broad tilt range from -10° to 190° allows the camera to see beyond the true horizon, meaning you can see more even when zoomed in.

Built for Tough Environments

Specially designed for use in challenging environments the DCS-6915BS has a toughened metal, industry-certified IK-10 (vandal-proof) and IP-66 (weather-proof) housing. This means that it is able to withstand sudden high impacts, as well as adverse weather conditions. With its built-in heater and fan, the camera can operate in extreme environments at temperatures ranging from -40 to 50 °C (-49 to 122 °F).

High-Quality Video

To maximise bandwidth efficiency and improve image quality, the

DCS-6915BS provides real-time video compression using the H.264 and

MJPEG codecs. This versatility enables a wide variety of security applications, such as monitoring public areas to detect incidents and to coordinate responses, enforcing access control to restricted areas, deterring criminal activity, or monitoring inventory. Furthermore, bandwidth requirements can be adjusted in real-time over the network, and recorded video files can be saved to an internal MicroSD card 1 .

If the worst should happen to your network you need the very best support and fast. Downtime costs your business money. D-Link

Assist maximises your uptime by solving technical problems quickly and effectively. Our highly trained technicians are on standby around the clock, ensuring that award-winning support is only a phone call away.

Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

IP surveillance cameras are often installed in areas with consistent lighting, like offices, banks or stores. This makes it easy to set exposure levels for optimal image quality. At other times, surveillance personnel are not so lucky.

Doorways, glass walls or other areas that are exposed to direct or varying sunlight can create backlit or high contrast scenes. In such conditions, detail is lost in bright areas because of over-exposure and in dark areas because of low light. Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology overcomes these conditions by merging two images, one with a short exposure time to capture detail in the brighter parts of the image, and one with a longer exposure time to reveal detail in the darker areas. The resulting WDR image provides natural, balanced detail – a must in critical surveillance applications with tricky lighting conditions.

With a choice of three affordable service offerings covering all

D-Link business products, you can select the package that suits you best:

D-Link Assist Gold - for comprehensive 24-hour support

D-Link Assist Gold is perfect for mission-critical environments where maximum uptime is a high priority. It guarantees four hour around-the-clock response. Cover applies 24/7 for every day of the year including holidays.

D-Link Assist Silver - for prompt same-day assistance

D-Link Assist Silver is designed for ‘high availability’ businesses that require rapid response within regular working hours. It provides a four hour response service Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm, excluding holidays.

Removable IR Cut Filter for Continuous Monitoring

The IR Cut Filter can be manually applied, or set to automatically adjust based on lighting conditions. This feature enables the camera to capture crisp colour images during the daytime, and grayscale images in low-light.

D-Link Assist Bronze - for guaranteed response on the next business day

D-Link Assist Bronze is a highly cost-effective support solution for less critical environments. Response is guaranteed within eight business hours Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm, excluding holidays.

Robust Management Software
