Advanced AI Surveillance Features
The new Vigilance DCS-F Series cameras are built with cutting-edge technology and AI optimisation for accurate monitoring. Customise alarm triggers for intrusion detection, tripwire alerts, loitering detection, wrong-way warnings, and illegal parking monitoring. Set your preferred detection area and enable people counting for traffic analysis. The smart spotlight on human detection feature adds an extra layer of security by activating illumination when people are detected.
Day and Night Monitoring
Built-in Smart IR LED illuminators automatically activate based on lighting conditions, allowing the camera to capture video in low-light or no-light environments. Combined with an IR-Cut Filter, the DCS-F4808E provides sharp grayscale video with a range of up to 20 metres at night. True Wide Dynamic Range image enhancement ensures quality footage even during periods of extreme lighting contrast, restoring details in areas previously washed out by excessive light or obscured by deep shadows.
Efficient Video Compression
The camera provides real-time video compression in H.265, H.264, and MJPEG formats using an embedded powerful SoC (System-on-Chip). HEVC (H.265) support optimises network bandwidth for better visual quality and recording performance, reducing storage requirements while maintaining exceptional image quality.
Professional Connectivity and Integration
The DCS-F4808E supports ONVIF, SDK, and CGI protocols for seamless integration with third-party video management systems. The built-in 802.3af-compliant PoE module allows for single cable deployment, reducing installation complexity and cost. A built-in microphone captures audio for comprehensive surveillance, while the microSD card slot provides local recording options.
Versatile Mounting Options
Compatible with D-Link's range of Vigilance camera accessories including Junction Box Type T1 (DCS-F400JB), Pendant Cap Type T1 (DCS-F400PC), Wall Mount Bracket Type DT, and Pole Mount Bracket Type DT for flexible installation in various locations.
Ideal for Australian Businesses
Perfect for retail stores, warehouses, car parks, building perimeters, schools, offices, and industrial sites across Australia.
