AreconteVision AV10115DN

10MP camera from Arecont Vision.

Has day/night (IR). No IR Leds included.

Requires a lens that may or may not be included when you purchase. I recommend varifocal (adjustable). The user manual for Areconte cameras recommends some potential lens brands.

It is 10MP. That is potentially 3500x2700 or so pixels. Consider this early 10MP quality however. These are 2010-2011 tech.

Positives

  • TFTP, MJPEG, and H264 modes. MJPEG tested and confirmed working.
  • Cameras can be programmed and accessed through URLs (GET Requests)
  • Older model cameras are comparable to modern Chinese cameras and roughly the same price (buy while you can).
  • Easy to configure through web portal
  • Good ZM or other DVR compatibility
  • Made in USA

Negatives

  • No ability to send image files somewhere
  • MJPEG mode occasionally gave me a blue screen on this particular camera.
  • API SDK and docs require NDA
  • New cameras are priced for large business
  • Enclosures and lens might need to be purchased separately (not an issue if indoors for enclosure)
  • No reset button on the cameras. If admin password is set, you might have to use their program to reset your camera.
  • Seems to run a little hot. Has a very small case which may contribute. But good for low temperature.

Overall Opinion From the brief time I've used this camera, it's compatibility with ZM is good. These are not cheap, but if you find them for a good price, then try one out.



Mjpeg Stream

The user manual explains everything, but I will leave notes here to encourage the trepidatious to look into these cameras more.


The mjpeg stream can be accessed in a web browser at the following IP: http://<ipaddress>:80/mjpeg?res=half&x0=0&y0=0&x1=3648&y1=2752&quality=10&doublescan=0&fps=5

Replace mjpeg with image, remove fps, and you can access the static jpg.
