Before choosing
Who it may suit
A possible fit for a wide entrance where you can run Ethernet to the mounting point. It stitches two images into one frame, letting you check both sides from a fixed location. The advertised resolution is 7680 × 2160 at up to 20 fps. This is a 16 MP panorama, not the 7680 × 4320 television 8K format.
Panorama limits
Motion Track summarises a movement path in one image; it does not mean the camera turns to follow a subject. The vertical field of view is 55°, so check mounting height and orientation first. Colour night vision uses the built-in spotlights; infrared mode produces black-and-white images. Person, vehicle and animal detection can produce false alerts: adjust zones and sensitivity. We do not guarantee face or plate identification at a specific distance.
Installation and power
Ethernet carries data and can provide active IEEE 802.3af, 48 V PoE power. A compatible PoE switch, injector or NVR is required and not included. Alternatively, use a separate 12 V/2 A adapter for power while keeping Ethernet for data. An ordinary router without PoE cannot power it. This variant has no Wi-Fi or battery.
Recording and compatibility
Record continuously, on a schedule or on events to microSD, a compatible NVR or FTP server. The card is sold separately; current specifications and support list up to 512 GB for the Duo series. Confirm your unit’s format, card and firmware before buying. Local recording and basic detection do not require a subscription. Storage is not a backup: plan retention and backup around bitrate and usage.
Check NVR model, hardware revision and firmware. Support lists full compatibility with RLN8-410 Hw_N7MB01, RLN16-410 Hw_N6MB01, RLN36 and RLN12W. RLN8-410/RLN16-410 Hw_H3MB18, Hw_N3MB01 and Hw_N2MB02 are limited to 6 MP; Hw_H3MB16 and Hw_H3MB02 are unsupported. We do not promise every feature with arbitrary third-party recorders.
Before buying
Budget for the camera, PoE power equipment, cabling, storage and mounting. NVR and microSD are not included in this offer; confirm exact accessories at checkout. The body is IP67 rated, but connectors and mounting still need protection and sealing. Check seller, condition, warranty and delivery to your chosen destination. Observed US delivery conditions do not guarantee shipping to the Dominican Republic.
How does it compare with other options?
Choose around the area and infrastructure you have. More pixels do not replace good placement or guarantee useful detail in every light level. Compare total installed cost, not just camera price.
| Option | When it makes sense | Cost or limit to consider |
|---|---|---|
| Duo 3 PoE | Wide panorama from a location with Ethernet | Cabling and PoE equipment; up to 16 MP image |
| Duo 2 PoE | You also want a 180° horizontal view | 8 MP per manufacturer; compare current price and NVR |
| Two single-lens cameras | You need independent angles or locations | Two mounting points, cable runs and recording channels |
