This happens without any operator input - the camera follows the threat automatically until it leaves the field of view or the operator overrides manually.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this camera require Hi-PoE or can it use standard PoE?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis camera requires Hi-PoE (60W) or 24VAC power due to its high-performance motor and illumination systems. Standard PoE (15.4W) is insufficient. A Hi-PoE switch or injector, or a 24VAC power supply, is required.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many PTZ cameras are needed to cover a typical large estate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith 400m IR range and 360-degree rotation, a single DS-2DF8425IXG1-ELW can cover a very large area. For a typical residential estate, 2-4 units positioned at strategic vantage points can provide comprehensive perimeter coverage.
