UNIVIEW BULLET 8MP 80 IR LIGHTHUNTER IP Bullet Camera

The UNIVIEW BULLET 8MP 80 IR LIGHTHUNTER, article IPC2228SB-ADF40KM-I1, is a bullet camera from the UNIVIEW CCTV range. It combines an 8 megapixel image sensor with infrared night vision and the LIGHTHUNTER low-light technology. It is intended for security and surveillance tasks where both daytime detail and night-time visibility are important.
Key features
- 8 megapixel (8MP) resolution for detailed images
- 80 IR rating, indicating infrared illumination for night viewing
- LIGHTHUNTER low-light performance for dim conditions
- Bullet housing suited to outdoor and fixed-position mounting
- Part of the UNIVIEW IP camera family
Image quality
An 8 megapixel camera records four times as many pixels as a standard 4 megapixel model, so a larger area of the scene can be captured in a single frame. This allows operators to zoom into recorded footage without losing as much detail. The sensor and image processing are designed to deliver clear pictures in a range of lighting, and the LIGHTHUNTER branding highlights the camera’s ability to maintain usable images in low light.
Night-time monitoring
The 80 IR designation shows that the camera has built-in infrared illumination. Infrared light is invisible to the human eye but is detected by the camera sensor, so the scene can be recorded in complete darkness without visible lighting that might alert intruders or disturb neighbours. Night-time performance is an important part of most outdoor security systems, as much unwanted activity happens after dark.
Design and installation
The bullet form factor is one of the most common designs for outdoor CCTV. Its long body houses the lens and infrared elements, and it is typically fitted to a wall, pole or bracket with the lens pointing at the area to be watched. Installers usually aim bullet cameras at entrances, pathways and access points so that people and vehicles are captured clearly as they pass. Check the mounting options and environmental rating in the manufacturer’s documents before fitting the camera outdoors.
Typical uses
- Perimeter and boundary monitoring
- Entrances, driveways and car parks
- Warehouses, yards and loading areas
- Commercial premises and retail sites
- Residential security for houses and gardens
Integration with a CCTV system
As an IP camera, the unit is designed to connect to a network and to be recorded by a compatible network video recorder or management software. This makes it possible to build a system that covers several locations and to review footage remotely. Choose recording storage and network bandwidth to suit the number of cameras and the retention period you require.
