Description
 

Please Note: The AHD-BL6 is no longer manufactured. Please refer to the AHD bullet camera page for a replacement.

The AHD-BL6 is an Infrared AHD CCTV camera featuring a 2.8 ~ 12mm varifocal lens and a 1/3" Sony Progressive Scan CMOS image sensor. The AHD-BL6 is a weatherproof bullet-style security camera that is capable of supporting 720P (1280 x 720) resolution over RG59 coaxial cable. The varifocal lens allows installers to adjust the angle of view / zoom level of the camera with simple to use zoom level and focus knobs located in the back of the camera. Please note that AHD cameras must be used with an AHD compatible DVR.

This AHD-BL6 has built-in infrared illuminators, which allow the camera to continue capturing video in low or no light environments. The Smart IR technology enables the camera to automatically adjust the intensity of the infrared illumination based on the distance objects are located from the camera. You can see sample normal light and zero light surveillance images captured with this camera here. You can also watch video footage captured with the AHD-BL6 here.

The housing on the AHD-BL6 features an IP68 rating and protects the vital components of the camera from harsh weather, water, humidity, dust, and impact. This camera is designed for outdoor video surveillance installations.

An OSD (On Screen Display) menu allows the user to adjust the camera's settings using a joystick located on the camera. Digital Noise Reduction produces better image quality by removing graininess, this feature is especially useful in black & white mode when the IR LEDs are active. This camera can be powered by either 12V-DC or 24V-AC.

For environments with challenging lighting conditions, such as bright or dark backlighting, the AHD-BL6 security camera uses Digital WDR Enhancement. Digital WDR Enhancement works by combining the brightest part of the image with the darkest part to create one highly detailed image.

If you would like to connect this camera directly to an HDMI compliant TV / Monitor, please refer to the AHD-CV7 AHD to HDMI converter, or select it from the drop-down above.

HD Surveillance Video

The above videos were captured using an AHD-BL6 connected to a hybrid iDVR-PRO surveillance DVR.


HD Surveillance Images

HD CCTV Camera 720p

The above image was captured using the AHD-BL6 in normal lighting conditions.

Infrared HD Security Camera 720p

This image was captured using the AHD-BL6 with zero light in the room. The camera's infrared LEDs provide enough illumination to see this entire room clearly. This room is 29 feet by 30 feet. Although this camera is typically used for outdoor video surveillance because it is weatherproof, it also works great indoors and we needed to create a zero light environment for testing. There are street lights everywhere at our location, so it is difficult to test with zero light outdoors.
