Introduction
The Cisco Video Surveillance 6030 IP camera is an outdoor, high definition, professional fixed dome
IP
camera with industry-leading image quality and processing power. The 2.1 megapixel (MP) IP camera
offers 1080p full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) with superb image quality up to 30 frames per second
(FPS) while optimizing network usage with either H.264 or MJPEG compression. It can capture a much
more comprehensive area than a standard VGA model, significantly reducing the number of units
required. It is especially suitable for monitoring wide open outdoor areas such as building entrances,
airports, or applications requiring accurate identification.
For installers, properly adjusting the focus of an HD IP camera can be difficult due to the image detail.
To make installation and adjustment easier, the 6030 IP camera incorporates built-in stepping motors that
the installer can use to remotely control the focal length and precisely adjust the camera focus, offering
hassle-free installation and maintenance.
For complete installation and tampering prevention, the 6030 IP camera also fits different conduits and
corrugated tubes sizes for cable installation. Its IP66-rated housing is designed to help the camera body
withstand rain and dust and ensures operation under a multitude of harsh weather conditions. The wide
temperature range further enhances the 6030 IP camera performance and reliability in extremely cold
and warm weather. Additionally, the metal vandal-proof housing effectively provides robust protection
from vandalism.
With other advanced features such 802.3af compliant PoE, micro SD/SDHC card for local storage, and
e-PTZ functionality, the 6030 IP camera provides the most robust solution suitable for any demanding
outdoor environment.
