VT DBH24K Dome Housing protects Axis network cameras in outdoor environments, as well as in indoor conditions that may be humid, cold or dusty.
The housing provides IP65-class protection from dust and water. With a protective outer sunshield and fan-assisted heating, the housing enables the camera to operate in temperatures ranging from +50 °C to –20 °C (+122 °F to -4 °F).
Designed to look like a traditional lighting system, the housing allows for discreet surveillance. Its lower semi-sphere covering comes in clear or semitransparent black acrylic glass (PMMA). The housing provides an internal protective passage for cables and is easy to install on ceilings and walls.
Note: The product should be installed according to local laws and regulation. It may require the use of a licensed electrician.
The VT DBH24K Dome Housing cannot be used with the AXIS 213 CM Connection Module.
