VIVOTEK FD8361 Manuel D’Utilisation

 

 

VIVOTEK’s FD8361 is the latest professional-series outdoor fixed dome network camera featuring 

superb megapixel image quality and exceptional bandwidth efficiency. With day & night functionality and 

a weatherproof housing, it is especially suitable for tough outdoor surveillance environments such as 

parking lots and streets.

Featuring a 2-megapixel sensor, the FD8361 is able to provide extremely wide coverage with the finest 

details. Additionally, the camera is incorporated with high performance H.264 compression technology, 

and has adopted a number of innovative bandwidth-efficient technologies built into the camera, including 

cropping, ePTZ, and activity adaptive streaming.

In order to adapt to constantly changing outdoor lighting conditions, the FD8361 features an auto-iris 

lens to protect from damage induced by direct sunlight. The camera also comes with a removable IR-cut 

filter and IR illuminators for superior image quality around the clock. For protection against the elements, 

the camera is furnished with an IP66-rated housing and vandal-proof casing to withstand rain, dust, and 

vandalism. The PoE-powered heater and fan further enhance the FD8361’s performance and reliability in 

extremely cold and warm weather.

The integrated BNC connector allowing the FD8361 to be connected directly to an analog monitor 

provides enhanced flexibility and usability and ease of installation. Other advanced features include a 

3-axis mechanism for flexible installation, 802.3af PoE, SD/SDHC card slot, tamper detection, and SIP-
