Introduction
AV2100, AV3100 and AV3130 are mega-pixel resolution IP cameras capable of delivering crisp, low-
noise images at a video frame rate.
AV2100 is a 2-megapixel resolution camera having maximum resolution of 1600 by 1200 and achieving a
maximum frame rate of 24.
AV3100 is a 3-megapixel resolution camera. Its maximum resolution is 2048 by 1536. AV3100 is typically
viewed at 1920 by 1200 resolution with the frame rate up to 20 FPS.
AV3130 is a dual-sensor, day-night camera featuring a 3-megapixel color sensor paired with a 1.3-
megapixel grayscale sensor. The 3-megapixel sensor has a maximum resolution of 2048 by 1536. The
camera is typically viewed at a resolution of 1920 by 1200 with the maximum frame rate of 20 FPS. The
1.3-megapixel sensor has a resolution of 1280 by 1024. The color high-resolution sensor is used at times
when illumination is plentiful, such as daytime. The lower resolution grayscale sensor is used at low
illuminations, for example during night time. The sensor is sensitive to near infrared.
All cameras are equipped with LAN connector and can deliver image data at a maximum data rate of up to
45 Mbps. Images are sent over the network in a compressed Motion JPEG format using TFTP protocol.
All cameras feature:
•
Automatic exposure
•
Automatic multi-matrix white balance
•
50/60Hz flicker avoidance
•
Programmable brightness, saturation, gamma, sharpness, windowing and decimation
•
Simultaneous delivery of full-field view and zoomed images at video frame rate
•
Instantaneous electronic zoom, pan and tilt
•
Electronic image rotation by 180 degrees
Connectors
AV2100, AV3100 and AV3130 have the following connectors on the back:
•
LAN connector, accepting a network UTP or ScTP cable carrying 100 Base-T. The LAN
connector also accepts power-over-Ethernet
•
DC jack, accepting 9V-12V DC supply
•
Optionally, a DC auto-iris connector. AV3130 does not support auto-iris and does not have this
connector
Power
Power for AV2100, AV3100 and AV3130 can be supplied as follows:
•
Via DC jack, 9V-12V. A UL-certified, isolated power supply must be used. For power ratings see
below. The center contact in the power connector is positive
•
Via LAN connector, 48V DC over spare wires or over data pairs. The polarity is arbitrary. A list of
recommended PoE switches includes
•
PowerDsine PD-6001/AC (PoE single port hub)
•
TRENDnet TPE-S88 (POE switch/hub with 8 POE ports and 8 non-POE ports)
•
D-Link Web Smart DES-1316 (POE switch/hub with 8 POE ports and 8 non-POE ports)
Power consumption is varies depending on mode of operation. The maximum power consumption takes
place when the camera is polled at full frame rate and runs at full resolution. The consumption is
approximately 4 Watts for AV2100 and AV3100 and 4.5 Watts for AV3130.
