Description
The Arecont Vision AV3256 is a professional-grade 3MP indoor/outdoor IR dome IP camera, built for reliable and detailed surveillance. It delivers a crisp 2048 × 1536 resolution at 21fps, and is equipped with a motorized 8–22mm P-iris telephoto lens for optimal depth of field and image clarity.
This advanced model supports True Day/Night operation with a mechanical IR-cut filter and 24 integrated IR LEDs, offering clear vision in total darkness up to 36 metres. Its MegaDynamic WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) technology provides up to 100dB contrast handling, enabling effective image capture in both bright and shadowed areas.
Installation is simplified with remote zoom and focus control, eliminating manual adjustments. With CorridorView image rotation, the AV3256 is ideal for monitoring hallways and vertical scenes. Additional features include motion detection, privacy masking, multi-streaming, forensic zoom, and onboard SDHC card recording.
