Hunt Electronics hnc348g2-xdlu28 Turret Ip Camera 8MP

Product Description

The HUNT ELECTRONICS hnc348g2-xdlu28 is an 8MP turret-style IP security camera designed for continuous color surveillance in both indoor and outdoor environments. It delivers 3840 x 2160 resolution at 24 frames per second through a 2.8mm fixed focal length lens, capturing wide-area coverage with sharp detail. The Smart Color imaging system provides full-color video down to 0.0005 lux, eliminating the typical grayscale night image. H.265 and H.265+ compression reduces bandwidth and storage demands without sacrificing image quality. A built-in microphone supports on-camera audio recording. This camera is installed by security integrators, licensed low-voltage technicians, and experienced surveillance professionals.

The hnc348g2-xdlu28 is suited for outdoor perimeter, parking lot, entry point, and building exterior applications where 24/7 color imaging is required. Its IP67-rated housing handles rain, dust, and temperature extremes from -22 to 140 degrees F, making it appropriate for harsh or exposed installation sites. Power over Ethernet (PoE 802.3af Class 3) simplifies cabling by delivering both data and power over a single Cat cable. Wall mount, pendant, corner, and pole mount accessory brackets are available for flexible positioning. The onboard micro SD card slot supports local edge recording up to 256 GB as a backup or standalone storage option.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or security systems technician in accordance with applicable local codes and the NEC. Power down the PoE switch port before connecting or disconnecting the camera. Verify that the PoE switch or injector supports 802.3af Class 3 and can supply the required 6 watts per port. Mount the camera to a structurally sound surface using the appropriate accessory bracket; adjust pan (0-360 degrees), tilt (0-75 degrees), and rotation (0-360 degrees) before final tightening to confirm the desired field of view.
