Frequently Asked Questions
What is CVA Technology and how does it improve IR illumination?
Continuous Variable Angle Technology (CVA Tech) allows dynamic adjustment of the infrared beam without mechanical repositioning. This enables security operators to optimize illumination patterns in real-time, adapting to changing surveillance requirements and camera specifications for superior night-vision performance.
Can the CM48 Series illuminator work with different camera lens angles?
Yes. The variable field of view from 10° to 180° combined with the adjustable beam angle ensures compatibility with wide-angle, standard, and telephoto lenses. This flexibility makes the CM48 an ideal choice for mixed-camera surveillance deployments.
What is the maximum effective range of the VIVOTEK CM48 IR illuminator?
The CM48 Series delivers effective infrared illumination up to 250 meters, making it suitable for perimeter security, parking facilities, and large outdoor surveillance areas requiring extended night-vision coverage.
Is the 850nm wavelength suitable for all surveillance cameras?
The 850nm infrared wavelength is the industry standard for professional CCTV systems and provides optimal performance with most surveillance cameras. It offers excellent balance between range, power efficiency, and image quality in low-light conditions.
