Dome Hawk DOME HAWK

Dome Hawk is based around a highly sensitive dome camera that offers a powerful 76x zoom capability coupled with excellent low light characteristics.

The camera is a colour/mono x-wave module with the ability to switch into frame integration for ultra low light conditions.

  • Totally portable, battery or mains powered
  • Built in Video Transmitter and Telemetry Receiver
  • 6.4" LCD TFT screen, mini VCR with video receiver and joystick controller - housed in a rugged receiver case
  • Over 1 kilometre range
  • Video encryption option available
  • High specification Wavelet 20 GB HD video recorder
  • Hard disk recorder functions controlled by radio


Pre-sets and tours are catered for as a standard and privacy zone functions can be provided upon request.
All of the radio frequency components are contained within the camera enclosure, making it very quick and easy to install on any flat surface or pole.

Dome Hawk is also available with an on board DVR to provide local storage of video footage within the camera head, particularly useful for occasions where remote monitoring and recording is not possible.

The camera is supplied complete with all antennae and connecting cables.

Dome Hawk battery tube HAWK BATTERY TUBES

Whilst Dome Hawk can be powered directly from a 240v a.c. mains supply, there are occasions when this is not available. The illustrated battery tube means the camera can be deployed and operated for between 12 and 96 hours, this ensures that Dome Hawk can be utilised virtually anywhere.

For long term deployments can be interconnected to provide extended running times.


Dome Hawk controller case DOME HAWK CONTROLLER CASE

To facilitate mobile monitoring, cameras can be controlled from a briefcase style controller. This compact controller contains all of the RF components required for video monitoring and camera telementry. With the integral monitor, battery supply and recording medium, it provides a completely mobile control centre for up to eight deployed cameras.


Street Hawk Control Room Keyboard DOME HAWK CONTROL ROOM KEYBOARD

For fixed control room applications or joint operation with mobile units, a keyboard can be utilised. This gives the ability to integrate rapid deployment cameras into existing control rooms or any other permanent monitoring position.
The keyboard can control up to 8 Hawks and provides a spot monitor output to view the camera under control.


Video receiver / telemetry transmitter VIDEO RECEIVER / TELEMETRY TRANSMITTER

When setting up a more permanent monitoring location it is advisable to fit video and telemetry transmitters and receivers outside at roof level. The units (right) are fully weatherproof and can be installed to provide a more permanent control location.
The range for standard transmitters and receivers is 1 kilometre line of site but can be increased by selecting high gain antennae.


On-board hard disc video recorder ON-BOARD HARD DISC VIDEO RECORDER

The last 24 hours of video will always be available on board the Hawk cameras with their integral 20Gb wavelet hard drive recorder which will store video images within the camera housing irrespective of operator status.
If comms are lost for any reason or manpower resources do not allow for continuous monitoring then the Hawk can record locally in either time lapse or real time modes.


Image lock video scrambling IMAGE LOCK VIDEO SCRAMBLING

Using the Imagelock from MEL, all video transmissions are fully scrambled using Cut and Rotate Encryption methods this preventing unauthorised interception of sensitive video images by the public. The image shown on the right is the scrambled view of the picture above, this demonstrates the security that is integral to Hawk.


LONG RANGE ANTENNAE

A variety of alternative antennae can be utilised to improve range and performance of the video and data transmitters allowing operation of the cameras from up to several kilometres away. The range includes omnidirectional, high gain arrays and automatic diversity switches.
