The CCTV Camera Enclosure with IR Night Vision is an outdoor security camera housing made for compatible box cameras. It adds a weather-resistant metal enclosure, built-in infrared LEDs, a wiper, heater blower, cooling fan, and mounting bracket for outdoor surveillance applications where a standard bullet or dome camera is not the right fit.
This enclosure is commonly used when you need a box camera protected inside an outdoor CCTV housing with long-range infrared illumination. When used with an infrared-sensitive box camera, the built-in IR LEDs can provide up to 328 ft of night vision in complete darkness.
Camera not included. The box camera shown in product images and video is for reference only and must be purchased separately. For best results, use this enclosure with an infrared-sensitive box camera such as the Avalonix Premium Series 2K IP box camera.
The enclosure requires 24V AC power to operate the built-in IR, heater blower, fan, and wiper. A 24VAC 72W power supply is included. The camera connection depends on the box camera being used. For an IP box camera, Ethernet connects to the camera, while the enclosure's 24V AC power connection powers the housing features.
There is a built-in heating element to help keep the camera warm in cold weather, and an internal fan to circulate air in hot weather. The housing is designed for outdoor use with an operating temperature range up to 140°F.
Please note that most box cameras are not infrared sensitive. A camera with a Day & Night feature does not always mean it can see infrared light. To see in darkness with this IR enclosure, the box camera must be sensitive to IR LED light.
At CCTV Camera World we carry specific infrared-sensitive box cameras that can be used with this enclosure. When using the IP4MPBX 4MP IP box camera, the wiper and IR LEDs can be controlled through the camera's built-in web interface when the enclosure connections are tied to the camera's RS485 port.
Video: How the CCTV Enclosure and Box Camera Connect
Watch the video below to see how the enclosure is prepared, how the compatible box camera fits inside, how the wall bracket connects to the housing, and how the power and Ethernet connections are routed.
Important Setup Notes from the Video
- If the enclosure is shipped with a box camera installed, foam may be placed between the lens and front glass to prevent damage during transit.
- Remove the foam packing material before using the camera.
- Be careful not to pull or damage the pre-wired connections inside the housing.
- Push the box camera all the way forward when reinstalling it inside the enclosure.
- The mounting bracket connects to the base of the housing using the enclosure bolts.
- Run the power and Ethernet connections through the bottom of the housing and bracket area as shown in the video.
- Ethernet connects to the IP box camera. The 24V AC power connection powers the enclosure's IR, heater blower, fan, and wiper.
- Keep all wiring weather resistant to avoid shorts or damage to the camera or housing.
- Do not use a drill on the housing screws or cover bolts because it can strip the screw heads.
