Who it's for
Ideal for sites requiring a compact, high‑resolution analogue dome with strong physical protection — retail fronts, entrances, car parks, schools and public buildings where vandalism or harsh weather is a concern. Suitable for both DIY installers familiar with analogue CCTV and professional contractors.

Installation & compliance

• Requires a 12 VDC power supply (not included). Ensure correct polarity and cabling rated for external use where applicable.
• For outdoor installations, mount using appropriate fixings and weather‑proof cable entry. Confirm local regulations and installer certification requirements.
• Refer to the manufacturer datasheet for full compliance markings (CE/UKCA) and detailed installation instructions.

Safety
Installations should be completed by a qualified installer where local law requires. Isolate power before servicing. Consult the full Hikvision datasheet for environmental limits and wiring diagrams.
