The durable housing of the DCS-6517 has also been designed to meet IK10 vandal proof specifications, meaning that it can be deployed into areas that require the peace of mind that the DCS-6517 can provide. Combined with its power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, the DCS-6517 truly is a versatile solution that be used in a wide range of applications. 

Continuous Monitoring
In low-light situations, the IR cut filter automatically slides out of the way to use all available light. The DCS-6517 also has built-in IR LED illuminators with a 20 meter range, allowing the camera to keep watch even in complete darkness. These features work together to give you a reliable surveillance camera capable of monitoring an area 24 hours a day. To maximize bandwidth efficiency and improve image quality, the DCS-6517 provides real-time video compression using the H.264, and MJPEG codecs, and supports three separate profiles for simultaneous video streaming and recording. This versatility enables a wide variety of security applications, such as monitoring public areas to detect incidents and to coordinate responses, enforcing access control to restricted areas, deterring criminal activity, or monitoring inventory.
