Bosch’s AutoDome modular camera system is a revolu-
tionary new concept in dome cameras. More than just
a series of cameras, it’s a dome platform built around
a system of intelligent, interchangeable modules that
allow you to update camera functionality quickly and
cost-effectively. Using common components lets you
install a basic camera system today and migrate to a
more advanced version tomorrow – without having to
replace the entire dome, thus protecting your initial in-
vestment.
Interchangeable modules
The entire AutoDome system is based on five inter-
changeable modules: the CPU, camera, housing, com-
munications, and power supply. Simply swap one of
AutoDome’s interchangeable modules and quickly up-
grade from analog to IP, color to day/night, or add mo-
tion detection, image stabilization, and AutoTrack.
Never before have you had the ability to adapt a secur-
ity system to your changing needs this quickly or inex-
pensively.
By using the same housing components, all installa-
tions have a consistent look, and observers have no
idea which type of camera (if any) is watching over
them. This unique, modular design also gives you the
flexibility to move cameras between different housings
when special coverage is needed, or as site plan re-
quirements change. For example, an 18x PTZ camera
over a specific area could easily be “hot-swapped” to a
26x or 36x day/night without removing the power. Au-
toDome’s Ethernet communications module allows you
to add IP functionality while maintaining connectivity
to existing analog inputs and outputs.
500i Series highlights
AutoDome 500i Series adds real intelligence to your
video surveillance applications. Equipped with Auto-
Track II the latest version of Bosch’s award-winning
motion tracking software, built-in image stabilization,
motion detection, and a sophisticated alarm handling
“rules” engine, the AutoDome 500i Series incorporates
advanced, intelligent video features unmatched by any
other camera system.
The AutoDome 500i Series supports a variety of stand-
ard and optional video and data transmission meth-
ods, including Bilinx (over coax and UTP), fiber, and
even TCP/IP over Ethernet. Remote control, configura-
tion, and firmware updates can also be performed over
these cables, offering you unparalleled control of your
cameras. Cable compensation provides extended co-
