The Viewtron IP-B8 is a 4K resolution IP bullet camera with floodlight and IR night vision. This 4K IP camera is enclosed in a IP67 rated weatherproof bullet housing so that it can be used for indoor and outdoor installations. The built-in IR LEDs provide infrared illumination up to 120 feet. The fixed 2.8mm lens captures provides a 110 degree field of view. The tri-axis mount allows installers to ceiling mount or wall mount the camera and angle the lens in any direction. This IP camera is ONVIF protocol compliant so that it can be used with any ONVIF compatible NVR (3rd party manufacturer DVRs supported).
This new generation IP-B8 now has a built-in audio surveillance microphone, dual LEDs (IR night vision & visible white alarm light / floodlight), and AI software functions.
Viewtron dual LED security cameras can run in 3 modes: IR night vision only, white light / alarm light only, both. Watch this video to learn more and see how the camera's white alarm light automatically switches when a human is detected entering an intrusion zone.
The AI software built into this security camera supports human detection, car detection, and motor-vehicle detection (bicycles, scooters). This AI camera DOES NOT support face detection / facial recognition. Please refer to these
face recognition camera models if you need automated facial recognition.

Camera Dimensions
The above image shows the dimensions of the IP-B8 in millimeters. For reference 217.7mm = 8.57 inches. 80.5mm = 3.17 inches.
Junction Box Mount Option
The
VT-J302 security camera junction box is an optional installation mount for the IP-B8. There is a bottom and side cable inlet and the cable leads from your camera can neatly be concealed inside this weatherproof enclosure. When the bottom inlet is used, the inlet plug can be moved to the size inlet. This junction box can be used for ceiling or wall mount installations.
This security camera has dual LEDs: 2 infrared LEDs for night vision and 1 white light LED for alarm intrusion. The white LED acts as a floodlight. The infrared LEDs allow this camera to capture video surveillance in low-light and zero light. The IR night vision automatically engages when the light level falls below a certain level. The white LED acts as an alarm light and is optional to use. The alarm light can automatically turn on when a human or automobile enters an intrusion zone or crosses a virtual trip wire. Please note that the white alarm light is optional to use. The camera supports 3 LED light modes.
- IR Night Vision Only - Camera automatically switches to black and white IR night vision mode in low light.
- White Alarm Light Only - Camera does not switch to IR Night Vision mode. Stays color. White alarm light automatically turns on upon human detection and / or vehicle detection.
- Dual Mode - Camera switched to IR night vision mode in low light. When human or vehicle object detection occurs, IR night vision is turned off, white alarm light turns on, camera captures video surveillance in color. When object is no longer detection, IR night vision mode is re-engaged.
This camera will appeal to customers looking for a security camera with motion detection light, motion detection security light, and motion detection flood light.
Watch this video to see how the dual LEDs of this security camera work. Mike installed one of these cameras on his security camera system and setup the camera in dual LED mode. In the video, you will learn how to configure the LED mode from a Viewtron NVR, setup the intrusion zone for human detection, and see the camera switch between IR night vision and alarm light modes.
Watch this video to see how easy installation is with the camera's tri-axis ball and socket joint style mount. Simply loosen the set ring at the base of the camera to point the camera lens in any direction. When you are done adjusting the angle, tighten the set ring. The camera is very sturdy and the set position will not move.

Watch this video demo that shows the 4K video surveillance footage recorded using the IP-B8 installed outside of CCTV Camera Pros office.
The following images were captured with the IP-B8 installed outdoors at CCTV Camera Pros warehouse. The IP-B8 was connected to a
Viewtron IP Camera NVR with built-in PoE. Please click on the images to see the full 4K UHD surveillance image.
The 3.6mm lens provides a nice wide angle of view. This bullet IP camera does a great job providing security to this area of our parking lot.
Night Time Surveillance
Our parking lot has a good amount of lights that are on at night. As you can see, the camera does not switch to IR night vision mode at this location. It is fairly typical for parking lots to have lighting like you see here.
For reference, the sidewalk in front of our office building is 62 feet wide.
Outdoor Installation
Here are some pictures of the outdoor installation of the IP-B8 on CCTV Camera Pros office building / warehouse.
Here is a close-up. The optional junction box helps make this a very neat installation job.
Mobile App Viewing
This is the IP-B8 camera remote view from the Viewtron iPhone app. The iPhone app is included for free and lets users connect directly to their IP camera without using a DVR. The app can also connect to Viewtron DVRs / NVRs to view many cameras. The Android mobile app looks and acts exactly the same as the iPhone app.
Here is a snapshot of the digital zoom feature of the mobile app. Images can be zoomed in / out of using by pinching and stretching the screen on iPhone and Android.
