  • TypeSmoke Detector
  • 8MP resolution captures fine detail across wide scenes
  • 180° panoramic view monitors large areas with one camera
  • H.264 and MJPEG compression reduces bandwidth and storage needs
  • Backlight compensation balances exposure in high-contrast lighting
  • Auto gain control maintains clear video in low-light conditions

8MP 180° Surround Video Camera

The Arecont Vision AV8185CO is an 8 megapixel security camera that captures a 180° surround view at a resolution of 6400 x 1200 pixels. It uses a 1/2 inch colour sensor with an 8 mm focal length and supports H.264 and MJPEG compression. The unit mounts on a surface and includes back light compensation plus automatic gain control for balanced exposure.

Suits wide-area monitoring.

This camera suits installers who need a single device to cover a broad horizontal scene such as a hallway, forecourt or retail floor. Buyers who require optical zoom for distant identification or a narrower field of view with higher pixel density should look at alternative form factors. The fixed 8 mm focal length and 180° coverage define its operational envelope.

6400 x 1200 resolution across 180° view

The horizontal resolution of 6400 pixels spread over the 180° field of view is the specification that decides whether this model meets the required pixel-per-metre density for the intended scene. If the target area demands finer detail at the edges of the panorama, a different sensor or lens combination will be necessary.

Questions about this item

What does the 8MP 180° surround video capture actually show on a monitor?

The 6400 x 1200 resolution spreads across a full 180° panoramic view so a single camera covers a wide area without mechanical panning.

How does the H.264 / MJPEG compression affect bandwidth and storage on an NVR?

H.264 reduces bit-rate for continuous recording while MJPEG provides low-latency frames for live viewing; both are standard NVR codecs.

What mounting hardware is needed for the surface-mount design?

The camera installs directly on a flat ceiling or wall using the integrated surface-mount bracket; no recessed cut-out or pendant kit is required.
