    About the Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera

    The Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera is a rugged outdoor-grade bullet form factor designed to withstand exposure to weather, vandalism, and direct sunlight. 1080p Full HD remains the most widely deployed CCTV resolution in 2026 — it balances bandwidth, storage, and detail well, supporting facial identification up to roughly 12 meters in good light. 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. A standard 50–80° horizontal FOV mimics how a person sees a scene and works well for general-purpose monitoring of rooms, parking spaces, and perimeter walls without distortion. Super Low Light technology pulls usable color out of scenes lit by little more than a streetlight or moonlight, eliminating the need to drop into B/W mode in most night conditions.

    Best use cases for this camera

    Entrance, lobby & vestibule

    Low-light sensitivity preserves face detail even when interior lighting is dimmed for energy savings. Useful for capturing visitors as they enter and leave.

    Strengths

    • Super Low Light sensor maintains color detail in near-darkness

    Considerations

    • No built-in IR — requires external illumination for night use

    Coverage geometry & DORI distances

    At a 5-metre standoff the Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera covers about 8.2 m of scene width; at 10 m that grows to 16.5 m, and at 20 m to 33.0 m. Translating those numbers through EN 62676-4 pixel-density thresholds, the camera can detect a person up to 47 m, observe up to 19 m, recognise up to 9 m, and produce identification-grade detail (the ≥250 px/m bar used by Polish and EU courts as evidentiary) up to 5 m. Effective range above the identify threshold relies on supplementary lighting or a longer-focal-length optic — the geometry above assumes the 3.3-10mm lens declared by the manufacturer.

    Power & cabling

    The Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera 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 bullet 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 bullet 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 2024-2025 pricing — actual quotes vary by region, mounting height, and site conditions. Excludes hardware, transport, permits, and VAT.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is the Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera suitable for outdoor installation?

    Yes for the IP66/IP67-rated variant of this model. Bullet and dome bodies in the Genie CCTV 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 Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera?

    The camera draws roughly 5.5 W in steady-state operation, requiring a 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.

    How much storage does the Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera consume per day?

    At 2.1MP (1920×1080) resolution, 15 fps H.265 continuous recording, the Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera produces approximately 8 GB per day — about 240 GB per month. Motion-only or event-triggered recording typically cuts that by 40–70 % depending on scene activity. Plan NVR HDD capacity for the longest retention period required by your privacy policy or insurance contract.

    Up to what distance can the Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera identify a person?

    Per EN 62676-4:2025 pixel-density thresholds, this camera identifies (≥ 250 px/m on the target) up to about 5 m, recognises a person up to 9 m, observes general activity up to 19 m, and detects motion up to 47 m. Identification distance assumes daylight or full IR illumination on the target — at the limits of the IR cone the effective identify distance shrinks roughly 30 %.

    What network bandwidth does Genie CCTV Genie True Daynight Hd Sdi 1 3mp Bullet Style Ir Camera use?

    Typical ingest is 3 Mbps for the main stream (H.265, medium scene complexity, 15 fps) plus ~0.5 Mbps for a low-resolution sub-stream used by mobile clients. For a 16-camera installation of this class, plan a 50–100 Mbps NVR uplink and a dedicated VLAN for camera traffic.
