Verdict
Bosch DINION 7100i IR NBE-7703-ALX captures more pixel detail (4.1 MP vs 3.7 MP), useful for license-plate or face identification at distance. Axis AXIS Q1786-LE-29 reaches further (80 m vs 60 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots.
Frequently asked questions
Is Axis AXIS Q1786-LE-29 better than Bosch DINION 7100i IR NBE-7703-ALX?
Bosch DINION 7100i IR NBE-7703-ALX captures more pixel detail (4.1 MP vs 3.7 MP), useful for license-plate or face identification at distance. Axis AXIS Q1786-LE-29 reaches further (80 m vs 60 m) — better for perimeter and parking-lot wide shots. For installation-specific advice — mounting height, tilt, obstacle shadowing, BOM and PoE budget — drop both cameras into CCTVplanner and the FOV cones, DORI rings (per EN 62676-4) and cable schedule render in real time on a satellite map or imported floor plan.
What is the field of view of Axis AXIS Q1786-LE-29 vs Bosch DINION 7100i IR NBE-7703-ALX?
Axis AXIS Q1786-LE-29 has a 33° horizontal FOV at 10.9-29mm. Bosch DINION 7100i IR NBE-7703-ALX has a 103° horizontal FOV at 4.7-10mm. Bosch covers a wider scene at the same distance; the FOV calculator on CCTVplanner converts these into linear meters of coverage at any chosen target distance.
Which camera has stronger IR illumination?
Bosch DINION 7100i IR NBE-7703-ALX reaches 60 m of IR illumination versus 60 m for Axis AXIS Q1786-LE-29. The further-reaching IR camera is the better fit for unlit yards, parking perimeters and warehouses without permanent lighting.
Can I plan a project mixing Axis and Bosch cameras?
Yes. CCTVplanner is multi-vendor by design — drop Axis and Bosch cameras on the same canvas, share the same EN 62676-4 lens math and DORI ring overlays, and consolidate them into one BOM with cable schedule and PoE budget. Vendor design tools (Axis Site Designer, Hikvision HiTools, Dahua Project Design Tool, i-PRO SDT) cannot do this because each speaks only its own catalog.
