Horizontal resolution of 380 TV lines

The SSC-M188CE camera incorporates a 1/3 type IT Super HAD™ CCD with more than 290,000 effective picture elements and a horizontal resolution of 380 TV lines.

High sensitivity

Sony Super HAD™ CCD offers high sensitivity from the use of an improved microlens over each pixel of the CCD, so that a light level of only 0.06 lux at F1.2 (50 IRE, AGC ON) is required to obtain excellent picture results.

BLC (Backlight Compensation)

The SSC-M188CE camera can automatically compensate for backlight conditions by switching on the Back Light Compensation (BLC) mode, which is centre measured. The BLC mode is on/off switchable.

Turbo AGC

The SSC-M188CE camera is equipped with an advanced Turbo AGC function. This boosts the range of the camera’s AGC by up to 24 dB so that a subject under low illumination can be distinguished more clearly. The Turbo AGC is on/off switchable.

CCD IRISTM function

This function allows the use of an inexpensive manual iris lens instead of a more costly automatic iris lens. As the scene illumination level varies, this camera compensates by automatically changing the exposure time of the photo sensors. This is achieved by varying the electronic shutter speed of the CCD over a range or 1/50 to 1/100,000 of a second.

CS-mount

The camera can be used with CS-mount lenses and precise back-focus adjustment can be easily accomplished. C-Mount lenses also can be used with a C-mount adapter.

AC 220-240 volt operation

The SSC-M188CE operates on AC 220-240 volt.

Stylish and Compact Design

The new stylish compact design is lightweight and easy to integrate into almost any interior. In addition due to the compact size it is easy to fit into almost any housing.

Excellent Picture Quality

High quality images can be captured with a horizontal resolution of 380 TV lines, providing your video surveillance system the detail required for effective monitoring and recording.

Clear image acquisition under low-light conditions

The SSC-M188CE offers remarkably high image acquisition under low-light conditions resulting in greater convergence so that a light level of only 0.06 lux (F1.2, 50 IRE, AGC ON) is required for clear image acquisition.

Compensation of strong backlighting effects

The analogue Backlight Compensation function helps to overcome strong backlighting effects, which often cause the subject of the picture to be cast into a shadow. This makes the subject more easily visible, providing an improved level of object recognition in surveillance and monitoring systems.

Use of manual Iris lens instead of Auto Iris lens.

In the case that the illumination level of the scene changes slightly, the SSC-M188CE does not necessarily require a more costly auto iris lens because of the CCD IrisTM function. As the illumination changes the CCD Iris function responds by automatically reducing or increasing the exposure time of the photosensors.

Flexible choice of lens

The SSC-M188CE does not limit you in choice of lenses as it accepts both DC servo and video servo lenses, when a DC servo lens is used, the level of output signal is adjustable. In addition you have the freedom to choose between a CS-mount or a C-mount lens.
