This robust and weatherproof camera includes an extra-long weathershield, IP66, NEMA 4X and IK10 ratings and it can withstand hurricane force winds of up to 60 m/s (134 mph). Additionally, the gray colour housing and black weathershield blends right in to any traffic environment.

  • Handle speeds of up to 130 km/h (81 mph)
  • Capture range of up to 100 m (328 ft)
