The Q22 uses no moving parts and features a hemispheric lens to cover a wider area then traditional fixed cameras with technology to digitally flatten, pan, tilt and zoom any image.
It can run entirely via Power over Ethernet (PoE) with internal storage buffer to provide localised recording in the event of network outage and to help deliver better quality of service, especially across wireless networks.
“The Q22 is a unique design with many innovative features integrated for the first time in a three megapixel camera,” said Mike Lewis, Mobotix UK & Eire country manager.
“Our design philosophy has also extended to deployment, especially within shared IP networks, to allow the Q22 to meet the needs of both IT and security managers.”
Security and IT
“For security managers, alongside its 3.1 megapixel quality delivering up to 25 frames per second, the Q22 has built in speaker and microphone providing bi-directional audio with full support for leading CCTV management platforms,” Lewis said.
“For IT managers required to support the Q22 on IP networks, the camera has full SIP support, with built-in firewall capability to ease integration and management concerns.”
Lewis said the Mobotix distributed architecture allows the Q22 to record, process and encode video locally to a 16GB internal buffer then transmit at variable data rates. The use of low bandwidth MxPEG file format also drastically reduces bandwidth consumption and requires no additional Quality-of-Service protocols.
Pre-launch orders
The Q22 has already received over 1000 pre-launch orders from its partners.
“Q22 is the first of a new generation of CCTV set to replace analogue systems en masse over the next few years,” said Martin Morris, UK security sales manager from Mayflex, a major Mobotix distributor in the UK.
The Q22 is IP65 rated and is available in a range of install options including wall mounting, inset installation into false (cavity) ceilings, vandal protection and hard surface mounting.
