Raytec have released their new VARIO2 IP Hybrid Illuminators. The CCTV lighting product company says that the range combine four technologies into a single package as a smart and connected illuminator for the security market. Each illuminator combines Infra-Red, White-Light, IP connectivity and PoE (power over Ethernet) into a single networked package.
VARIO2 IP Hybrid uses Raytec’s latest PLATINUM Elite twin-core SMT LEDs which are individually over 200pc more powerful than previous generation LEDs, the company says. This allows it to integrate all the performance of two full size illuminators (one Infra-Red and one White-Light) into one smaller hybrid. A user gets the performance of two illuminators from a single package while reducing capital outlay, infrastructure and running costs, the makers say.
Fully IP addressable, VARIO2 IP Hybrid allows you to stay connected with your site at all times. Operated remotely via a GUI, you can take control of your lighting at any time to respond to live events or make remote adjustments. The hybrid can also be fully integrated with your video management or building software, or other third party devices, and you can automate it to respond to an incident, even if your site is unmanned.
David Lambert, Raytec’s Managing Director (Joint), says: “We are exceptionally proud of VARIO2 IP Hybrid. It represents all of the best Raytec technology in a single platform that can deliver the right amount of light, and the right type of light, where and when the situation demands. Whether the goal is covert Infra-Red, close range facial recognition or white-light as a visual deterrent, one illuminator can now do it all. We believe that Hybrid IP is the future of lighting in the security market. No longer will security professionals have to choose between Infra-Red or White-light, they will choose Hybrid IP lighting that can be easily integrated into the wider security system and deliver any light that is required.”
The firm adds that the IP Hybrid represents an evolution of its VARIO IP range. Visit www.rayteccctv.com.
