• Fixed 19 mm Lens: Provides a 19.4° horizontal field of view, ideal for monitoring perimeter zones or specific points of interest.
• Bullet / Capocorda Form Factor: The sleek bullet shape allows easy mounting on ceilings or walls while maintaining a low profile against visual intrusion.
• White Color Option: Blends seamlessly into outdoor settings, reducing visual clutter and enhancing aesthetic integration.

Imaging Capabilities

The Q1941-E captures thermal imagery at a maximum resolution of 384 × 288 pixels, delivering clear temperature gradients across the scene. The camera supports 30 frames per second (fps), providing smooth motion capture for real‑time monitoring and recording.

Image Quality Controls

• Brightness Adjustment: Fine‑tune luminance to optimize visibility in varying thermal conditions.
• Contrast Control: Enhance temperature differences for sharper edge definition.
• Sharpness Adjustment: Improve detail clarity without introducing noise.

Connectivity and Power

• PoE (IEEE 802.3af) Support: Simplifies installation by delivering power and data over a single Ethernet cable.
• RJ‑45 Ethernet Port: One high‑speed LAN port enables reliable network communication.
• IPv4/IPv6 Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates into modern IP networks.

Video Compression and Storage

The camera offers multiple compression formats to balance bandwidth usage and image fidelity:

• H.264: Widely supported, efficient compression for long‑term storage.
• M-JPEG: Simple, lossless format suitable for quick playback.
• MPEG‑4 AVC (H.264): Advanced encoding with high compression ratios.

Internal memory of 256 MB Flash stores firmware and configuration data, while the camera supports external microSD cards (TransFlash, SDHC, SDXC) for flexible storage expansion.

Security and Network Protocols

• 802.1x RADIUS Authentication: Ensures secure network access control.
• SSL/TLS Encryption (HTTPS): Protects data transmission against eavesdropping.
• SNMP v1/v2c/v3: Enables remote monitoring and management.
• RTSP/RTP Streaming: Supports real‑time video delivery to compatible clients.
• FTP, CIFS/SMB, SFTP: Flexible file transfer options for backup and archival.
• UPnP, Bonjour: Simplifies device discovery on local networks.
