The Model 7440 Color CCTV Camera provides signifi cant performance in a small 
package. The camera’s high-resolution, low lux 1/3” CCD element provides clear 
images even in low light conditions. The built-in automatic iris control ensures an 
optimal picture on bright, sunny days without “blooming” or “washouts”. The fi xed 
focal-length lens has a horizontal viewing angle of 120° with no “fi sh eye” distortion.

The camera is housed in a miniature, weather-tight, die-cast aluminum enclosure that 
is built to withstand the harshest weather conditions. The adjustable mounting bracket 
allows the camera to be rotated 360° and pivot 90° to enable viewing in virtually 
any position. A locking screw on the mounting bracket secures the camera after the 
viewing angle is adjusted. The mounting bracket attaches to the mounting surface 
with the three screws provided.
