The new Siqura Camera Line spans 20 new offerings, available in both IP and analog versions including box cameras, fixed dome cameras, and PTZ dome cameras for both indoor and outdoor applications. The cameras feature an extensive menu of operational functions including backlight compensation, day/night operation, wide dynamic range for difficult light situations, image stabilization, megapixel versions, dual streaming, and POE (Power-over-Ethernet.)

"The successful introduction of our first IP-camera in 2007, the OpteliDome, confirmed our belief that today's customers want to work with companies that can deliver complete IP-surveillance solutions, from camera to control room," said Edmund Ludwig, Optelecom-NKF's president and CEO. "That's why we're bringing the Siqura Camera Line to market; to give customers the best possible solutions for every type of application."

"While we're at a key inflection point in the video surveillance market, which is moving from an analog-based industry to a digital one, we recognize that clients will continue to use analog video cameras" added Wilco Schouten, product line manager for cameras. "We plan to meet their needs with total network-based solutions, as well as with enhanced hybrid solutions, where, for instance we can also deploy our video codecs and fiber transmission systems. We expect solid sales of our new cameras to existing customers, but the performance and capabilities of our new camera line will definitely be eye-openers for many new prospects."
