White 4/8mp Fixed IR Turret Camera

A sleek, low-profile fixed-lens turret for crisp day/night coverage. Pick 4MP or 8MP (4K) models with efficient H.265/H.265+, 120 dB True WDR for backlit scenes, rugged IP67 weather sealing, and clean PoE installs—ideal for entries, porches, driveways, and interior commons.

Why Choose This Turret with Smart Shield Systems


  • Pro design & placement to avoid glare/blind spots and nail the angle the first time.

  • Clean PoE install (one Ethernet cable) with sealed junctions and tidy cable management.

  • Ongoing support—health checks, secure remote access, and retention guidance.


Key Features


  • 4MP or 8MP resolution with H.265/H.265+ compression for smaller files and smoother streaming.

  • 120 dB True WDR to tame bright entryways and windows.

  • Smart IR night vision ~30 m / ~100 ft (model dependent) for even illumination without washout.

Frequently Asked Questions


How wide is the 2.8 mm view?


Typical turrets list a very wide horizontal FOV around the 2.8 mm setting, great for doors and small-to-mid areas; we’ll place the camera so key details stay centered.


How far does the IR reach?


Most fixed 4/8 MP turrets rate ~30 m / ~100 ft of IR illumination; real-world range depends on scene reflectivity and mounting height.


Do I need power at the camera?


No—PoE (802.3af) carries power and data over one Ethernet cable from your NVR/switch.


Will it integrate with my existing recorder?


In most cases, yes. ONVIF Profile T/S ensures broad interoperability with modern NVRs/VMS platforms; we’ll confirm features for your setup.


Can it record without an NVR?


Many models include a microSD slot up to 256 GB for edge recording. We often pair this with NVR storage for redundancy.


Ready for Pro-Grade Coverage?


Smart Shield Systems will specify the right 4MP or 8MP Fixed IR Turret, design optimal placement, and install it cleanly with PoE, tuned imaging, and secure remote access—so you get crisp video day and night.
