About the Bosch NTE-3502-F02L
The Bosch NTE-3502-F02L is a rugged outdoor-grade bullet form factor designed to withstand exposure to weather, vandalism, and direct sunlight. Sub-megapixel resolution is suitable only for general overview footage. It is useful for movement detection but insufficient for facial recognition or license-plate reading. There is no built-in IR illuminator on this model, so it depends entirely on ambient light. In dark environments, pair it with external IR floods or white-light illuminators. An ultra-wide angle (>120°) captures nearly an entire scene from one position, but pixels per meter drops sharply at the edges, so identification at the periphery is limited.
Best use cases for this camera
Entrance, lobby & vestibule
The 132° field of view captures the entire entrance and surrounding waiting area from a single ceiling mount. Useful for capturing visitors as they enter and leave.
Strengths
- •132° wide field of view reduces the number of cameras needed per area
Considerations
- •No built-in IR, so it needs external illumination for night use
- •Edge distortion and reduced peripheral pixel density limit identification at the corners of the frame

Field of View Visualization
Night Vision Performance
Daytime
Full N/A resolution at 132° field of view. Effective identification range up to 0m in good lighting conditions.
Nighttime (IR)
No built-in IR: at night it needs ambient light or an external illuminator. Switches to B/W mode for clear night footage.
Installation tips for the NTE-3502-F02L
Position so the most important subject (entrance, cash register, gate) is in the center third of the frame, because peripheral pixel density drops with wide angles.
Coverage geometry & DORI distances
At a 5-metre standoff the Bosch NTE-3502-F02L covers about 22.5 m of scene width; at 10 m that grows to 44.9 m, and at 20 m to 89.8 m. Translating those numbers through EN 62676-4 pixel-density thresholds, the camera can detect a person up to 17 m, observe up to 7 m, recognise up to 3 m, and produce Identify-level detail (250 px/m in the EN 62676-4 DORI scale) up to 2 m. Effective range above the identify threshold relies on supplementary lighting or a longer-focal-length optic; the geometry above assumes the 2.3mm lens declared by the manufacturer.
Power & cabling
The Bosch NTE-3502-F02L draws an estimated 5.5 W under typical load (with the IR illuminator engaged where applicable), placing it in the 802.3af (Class 3, ≤15.4 W) budget. A single switch port supplies enough power without an injector. Cabling: stick to Cat6 STP for runs up to 100 m end-to-end; beyond that, add an inline PoE extender or move to fibre with a media converter at the camera end. On outdoor runs, route through ø25 PVC or PE conduit to keep the cable shielded from UV and rodents.
Privacy & legal (GDPR / RODO)
Any camera operating in a publicly accessible area falls under GDPR (RODO in Poland). Art. 13 obliges the data controller to post an information sign at every entry point with controller name, DPO contact, lawful basis (typically Art. 6(1)(f) legitimate interest for property protection), purpose, and retention period. Even a narrowly-aimed turret camera can incidentally record passers-by, so the Art. 13 sign at the entry point applies regardless of how tightly the lens is framed.
Installer time & cost (rough estimate)
A typical EU installer quotes 3-4 h of labour per turret camera of this class (approximately €135-€185 excluding hardware), broken down as bracket mounting, cable termination at both ends, on-site commissioning, and a brief operator handover. Allow extra time for high mounts (>4 m), exterior installations requiring scaffolding, or sites where cable routing demands wall penetrations or conduit work.
Indicative EU pricing at 2024-2025 rates; actual quotes vary by region, mounting height, and site conditions. Excludes hardware, transport, permits, and VAT.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Bosch NTE-3502-F02L suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes for the IP66/IP67-rated variant of this model. Bullet and dome bodies in the Bosch range survive direct rain, snow and UV; check the IP / IK rating against your environment (IP66 for rain/dust, IK10 for vandal-prone locations).
What PoE class powers the Bosch NTE-3502-F02L?
The camera draws roughly 5.5 W in steady-state operation, requiring an 802.3af (Class 3, ≤15.4 W) switch port. A single Cat6 STP cable carries both data and power up to 100 m; beyond that, add an inline extender or convert to fibre near the camera.
