Specifications
About the Truen TX-P5N340N20R
The Truen TX-P5N340N20R is a long-distance bullet body that mounts cleanly under eaves, on poles, or along fencelines. 4MP resolution delivers a noticeable detail upgrade over 1080p — facial identification extends to roughly 18 meters, and digital zoom on recorded footage stays usable. An IR reach above 80 m is unusual for the format and is intended for highway monitoring, large industrial sites, and airport perimeters where conventional cameras would simply lose the target after dark. 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.
Best use cases for this camera
Outdoor perimeter & fenceline
With 350m IR reach and 3.0MP (2304×1296) resolution, this camera covers fences, yards, and approach roads in complete darkness. Mount on poles or eaves at 4–6 m height angled slightly downward.
Strengths
- •350m IR range eliminates the need for external night-time illuminators
Considerations
- •No notable limitations for the intended class of installations

Field of View Visualization
Night Vision Performance
Daytime
Full 3.0MP (2304×1296) resolution at 56° field of view. Effective identification range up to 350m in good lighting conditions.
Nighttime (IR)
Built-in IR LEDs illuminate up to 350m in complete darkness. Switches to B/W mode for clear night footage.
Installation tips for the TX-P5N340N20R
Avoid mounting under direct ceiling lights or behind glass — both reflect IR back into the lens and create severe glare in the image.
Coverage geometry & DORI distances
At a 5-metre standoff the Truen TX-P5N340N20R covers about 5.3 m of scene width; at 10 m that grows to 10.6 m, and at 20 m to 21.3 m. Translating those numbers through EN 62676-4 pixel-density thresholds, the camera can detect a person up to 87 m, observe up to 35 m, recognise up to 17 m, and produce identification-grade detail (the ≥250 px/m bar used by Polish and EU courts as evidentiary) up to 9 m. Effective range above the identify threshold relies on supplementary lighting or a longer-focal-length optic — the geometry above assumes the fixed lens declared by the manufacturer.
Power & cabling
The Truen TX-P5N340N20R draws an estimated 12.0 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 Truen TX-P5N340N20R suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes for the IP66/IP67-rated variant of this model. Bullet and dome bodies in the Truen 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 Truen TX-P5N340N20R?
The camera draws roughly 12.0 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 Truen TX-P5N340N20R consume per day?
At 3.0MP (2304×1296) resolution, 15 fps H.265 continuous recording, the TX-P5N340N20R produces approximately 12 GB per day — about 360 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 Truen TX-P5N340N20R identify a person?
Per EN 62676-4:2025 pixel-density thresholds, this camera identifies (≥ 250 px/m on the target) up to about 9 m, recognises a person up to 17 m, observes general activity up to 35 m, and detects motion up to 87 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 Truen TX-P5N340N20R use?
Typical ingest is 5 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.
