The Cisco® Video Surveillance 2611 Standard-Definition IP Dome is a feature-rich digital IP camera designed to provide superior performance in a wide variety of video surveillance applications. The camera employs H.264 compression of up to 30 frames per second (fps) at D1 NTSC resolution (720 x 480) or 25 fps at D1 PAL resolution (720 x 576), offering efficient network utilization while providing high-quality video. This flush-mount dome is designed to be deployed indoors. With its open, standards-based design, the camera provides an ideal platform for operation as an independent device or as part of a Cisco Video Surveillance network.
Figure 1 shows the Cisco Video Surveillance 2611 IP Dome.

The Cisco Video Surveillance 2611 IP Dome offers a variety of benefits, including:
• Optimal imaging efficiency. The 2611 IP Dome can stream video using H.264 compression, reducing network traffic and storage requirements while providing superior image quality.
• Motorized focus and zoom. The lens on the 2611 IP Dome allows the focus and zoom to be controlled remotely, greatly simplifying installations and field of view adjustments.
• Wide dynamic range. The camera employs powerful digital imaging technology, allowing it to capture high-quality images in a wide variety of lighting conditions. It uses a progressive scan image sensor with global electronic shuttering to ensure natural color rendition, zero blooming and smear, and minimal motion blurring.
• Dual streaming. The camera can deliver two simultaneous video streams over the network. A combination of H.264, MPEG4, and MJPEG can be configured. Each video stream can be configured with individual resolution, quality, and frame rate settings.
• Flexible power options. The camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) 802.3af, and 12 VDC or 24 VAC power through an optional external power supply.
• Mounting options. The camera is designed for internal ceiling tile mount deployments. The camera is equipped with a varifocal motorized lens mounted to a manual pan and tilt mechanism that allows the camera to be rotated and placed at the proper angle.
• Dome options. The 2611 IP Dome comes standard with a smoked dome. A clear dome is available as an optional accessory.
• Day/night operation. The camera provides true day/night operation and includes an IR filter that switches to night mode in low-light scenes. This function can be set to manual or automatic control.
• Embedded security and networking. The camera provides 802.1X authentication and supports IP Multicast for enhanced bandwidth management.
• Event notification. The camera can examine designated areas in the video for motion activity and then notify users or other applications when it detects activity that exceeds a predefined threshold.
• Bidirectional audio.* The camera supports full-duplex audio, and options for half-duplex operation.
