Ajax Superior TurretCam HLVF (4 Mp) Varifocal PoE Turret IP Camera Black (135573)

Ajax Superior TurretCam HLVF (4 Mp) - Varifocal PoE Turret IP Camera, Black (135573)

Superior TurretCam HLVF (4 Mp) is a turret camera with a motorised zoom lens. Its 2.8-12 mm lens can be set from a wide 110-degree view down to about 47 degrees, with autofocus, so you can frame a gate, a car park entrance or a shopfront from the app instead of swapping cameras. It records 4-megapixel video, lights the scene with white LEDs up to 40 m or infrared up to 60 m, and picks out people, pets and vehicles. It has two microphones and a 3 W speaker for two-way communication, two alarm lines and two audio lines for other equipment on site, and a built-in accelerometer that reports any attempt to move it. This listing is the black version, 135573.

Also listed as 135573 (black). Ajax model ID TC.SHLVF4.W.

Technical specification

Works with

Ajax NVR (8-ch) and NVR (16-ch) recorders, the Ajax apps, other ONVIF Profile G or S recorders, and Ajax intruder alarms: a scenario in the Ajax app can make chosen cameras start recording when an Ajax detector is triggered, and the clip is sent to the mobile or desktop app. The alarm and audio terminals take third-party sirens, sensors, microphones or speakers.

Common questions

What does varifocal mean here?

The lens zooms between 2.8 mm and 12 mm under motor control, so the horizontal view can be set anywhere from 110 degrees down to about 47 degrees, and the camera can focus itself.

How far can it see at night?

The infrared LEDs reach up to 60 m for black-and-white footage, and the white LEDs up to 40 m for colour.

Can I talk through it?

Yes. It has two built-in microphones and a 3 W speaker, and Ajax lists two-way communication.

What can I connect to the alarm terminals?

There are two lines for third-party devices: alarm inputs that accept normally open or normally closed contacts, and an alarm output rated 24 V DC at 300 mA. There is also an external microphone input and a speaker output.

How do I power it?

Over PoE (802.3af/at, Class 4) or from a 12 V DC 1.5 A supply through the screw terminal. Ajax quotes up to 12 W. No power supply is included.

Will it warn me if someone moves it?

Yes. A built-in accelerometer sends an alert if someone tries to move the camera or take it off the wall.
