(5) Cameras. The cameras are solid state monochrome cameras with either a 1/2 or 2/3 inch video imaging array with

horizontal resolution of not less than 400 lines. They have automatic black level, automatic white clipper, and automatic

gain control. There is a selection of ten different automatic iris lenses ranging from 3.5mm, f/1.3 to 75mm f/1.8. The

camera can be housed in a tamper protected interior housing for interior use, and exterior housing for perimeter or other

exterior surveillance applications, or a housing that allows for camera operation in hazardous areas. The camera has an

input for an external synchronization signal if needed. Video signals from the cameras can be transmitted either by

hardwire or fiber optic media. The following is a list of the camera lenses and output cables that may be selected:

(a) Camera Lenses: 3.5mm, 5.7mm, 6.0mm, 9.0mm, 12.0mm, 16.0mm, 28.0mm, 35.0mm, 50.0mm, 70.0mm

(b) Camera Output Cables:

1. 1/2 inch coaxial output

2. 1/2 inch fiber optic output

3. 2/3 inch coaxial output

4. 2/3 inch fiber optic output

(6) Camera Supports. For cameras mounted in interior locations, with or without interior enclosures, the camera can be

wall or ceiling mounted. The camera mount has an adjustable head for mounting the camera and is of sufficient length

to allow for free and full adjustment of the camera.

For cameras mounted in exterior environments, the camera and lens contained in an environmentally sealed enclosure

can be mounted on several types of supports depending on location and usage.

(a) Cantilevered camera support. The camera mounting support is a straight (not hinged) or hinged,

cantilever aluminum pole with counterweights and mounting base. All fittings are stainless steel. The

pole is capable of supporting 50 pounds and is rated for a wind load of 100 miles per hour. The camera

mounting plate locates the camera 180 inches vertically from the base and 105 inches horizontally from

the centerline of the pole to the centerline of the camera.

(b) Straight Camera support. The camera mounting support is either a straight (not hinged) aluminum

pole or a hinged and counterweighted straight aluminum pole and mounting base with stainless steel

fitting. The pole is capable of supporting 50 pounds and is rated for a wind load of 100 miles per hour.

The camera mounting plate locates the camera 180 inches vertically from the base and 20 inches

horizontally from the centerline of the pole to the centerline of the camera.

(c) Wall mount. The wall mount camera support has an adjustable head for mounting the camera and it

is sufficient length to allow for free and full adjustment of the camera. The wall mount and head is

capable of supporting not less than 80 pounds. The wall mount and head is constructed of aluminum

stainless steel or steel with a corrosion resistant finish.

(7) Video Synchronization Generator. The video synchronization generator generates horizontal drive, vertical drive,

blanking and synchronization signals for transmission to the video cameras when synchronization is required.
