The new illuminators are fully weatherproof and can be used for both internal and external applications to provide dedicated lighting for network cameras. Both Infra-Red and White-light options are available, delivering excellent night-time images up to 60 metres (197ft). Installation is as simple as plugging in the PoE enabled network cable. With an inbuilt photocell plus internal Command and Control electronics our PoE range is truly plug and play.

Raytec acknowledge that IP and Megapixel cameras require high performance lighting. During internal tests Raytec lighting was shown to reduce both bandwidth requirements and storage requirements of network cameras by up to 95%. Without sufficient light neither video compression nor video analytics can work.
