Smartec announced STC-3630 outdoor camera with high resolution and IR illumination
New Smartec STC-3630 ULTIMATE outdoor camera provides round-the-clock video surveillance in outdoor conditions with low illumination. Due to Sony Super HAD II CCD, DSP processor, IR illumination and varifocal lens with AI, this outdoor camera generates a crisp image with 600 TVL resolution in Color and 700 TVL resolution in B/W modes. Due to the metal housing with IP66 rating and built-in heater, the camera can operate at temperatures ranging from -40 ° to +50 ° C. STC-3630 voltage supply is 12 V DC or 24 V AC.
1/3” camera features new Sony Super HAD II CCD with high sensitivity, improved dynamic range and noise reduction. This modern CCD provides outdoor camera operation at up to 0.15 lux in Color and up to 0.001 lux in B/W modes (IR illumination off). Due to DSP processor STC-3630 supports digital noise reduction (SSNR III) that improves image quality in low light conditions.
This outdoor model generates high-resolution images with 600/700 TVL resolution in Color and B/W modes respectively, ensuring the highest possible degree of image detail. To prevent sporadic switching between Color and B/W modes, outdoor camera allows installer to adjust delay time for Day/Night switching – from 5 to 60 seconds. Also, camera menu can be used for configuring camera switching between Day and Night modes.
In the absence of street lighting on the object the camera activates the built-in infrared illuminator with high light output, by adjusting power infrared illuminator, you can avoid the effect of “smearing” of the camera image when observing closely spaced street objects.
In case of lighting absence STC-3630 ULTIMATE activates 40 IR LEDs which provides up to 40 m of working range. When monitoring close objects installer can avoid “smearing” effect by adjusting the power of IR illumination. Smartec outdoor camera also allows installer to set the light level at which IR illumination will turn on automatically.
Due to the latest DSP processor, this outdoor camera supports digital noise reduction (SSNR III) that improves image quality in low light conditions. In addition, SSNR III function allows installer to save up to 70% of DVR disk space while recording video.
STC-3630 ULTIMATE features different functions that improve image quality. Thus, digital image stabilization (DIS) is used to eliminate image flicker, resulting from gusts of wind or other sources of vibrations. Due to the high light compensation (HLC) of the bright image areas, the adjacent areas of the image can be viewed more clearly. High dynamic range (SSDR) function enables installer to utilize STC-3630 camera on the applications with contrast lighting, suppressing extremely bright image areas and adding contrast to the image areas with a low light.
If necessary, STC-3630 allows installer to specify up to 8 motion detection areas with adjustable parameters (size, position, sensitivity). In addition, outdoor camera can configure up to 12 private masking zones on the image to block its view by the operator.
New outdoor camera allows installer to adjust camera lens and configure picture settings without full opening of the casing. Using camera hinged cover installer can get access to lens adjustment panel and on-screen menu navigation buttons. In addition, this outdoor model features compact size (83×82x166 mm) and is supplied with a feedthrough bracket.
New Smartec STС-3630 outdoor cameras are offered from stock by Smartec dealers. For more information about STС-3630 and other Smartec equipment, please, send your request to info@smartec-security.eu or contact your Smartec dealers directly.

An important advantage of STC-3620 ULTIMATE is its built-in IR illuminator, which helps outdoor video camera to generate detailed B/W image even in complete darkness. Due to 20 IR LEDs with high luminous efficiency new outdoor model reduces costs for surveillance system installation, excluding additional light sources for monitoring zone illumination.
