The MIC Series 550 camera combines cutting-edge
technology with the latest production techniques to
provide a class-leading feature set in an economical
package. The MIC Series 550 range takes high quality
surveillance to new levels of excellence.
As a best-fit camera for virtually any security applica-
tion, it can be installed in the harshest of environ-
ments. Thanks to its IP68-rated aluminum casing, the
MIC Series 550 camera functions perfectly in the most
demanding conditions. This tough and vandal-resistant
casing provides protection from the elements and
physical attack. An integrated long-life silicone wiper
and a reversible rain shield ensure high quality images
regardless of the installed environment.
The brushless-motor technology offers ultra-reliable,
quiet operation with full 360º continuous rotation pan
and 270º tilt control for exceptional viewing capability.
Small increment pan speeds from just 0.2º per second
to 120º per second gives the user precise control. This
speed control is especially important when used with
video analytic systems, particularly for tracking sub-
jects when fully zoomed in.
The MIC Series 550 camera incorporates Bosch’s
standard AutoDome controller interface supporting fa-
miliar AutoDome on-screen menus. This enhancement

System Overview
Rated to an industry-leading IP68
Subjected and certified to rigorous IP68 dust and im-
mersion tests, MIC Series cameras are perfectly suited
for installation in even the most unforgiving environ-
ments, eliminating the need for pressurization.
The camera is machined from solid aluminum and pro-
tected from corrosion by two different processes: first,
it receives a coating of Alodine 5200, a chromate con-
version coating of aluminum that is used in the aero-
space and defense industries where a protective layer
is required to improve corrosion resistance. Second, it
receives a robust, powder paint coating. The camera is
sealed with ‘O’ rings and can operate submerged in up
to one (1) meter (3.3 feet) of water for sustained peri-
ods of time [a maximum duration of 24 hours]. (It is
not rated to be installed permanently under water.)

Various mounting options, including on-site canting
The MIC Series 550 camera features twist-lock on-site
canting functionality. This allows the camera to be in-
stalled upright, inverted, or canted (at a 45º angle) to
achieve the perfect field of view. No matter the instal-
lation position, the camera will operate faultlessly.
