Equipped with 24 Platinum Elite SMT LEDs, the silver VARIO2 PoE w8-1 Long-Range White-Light PoE Illuminator from Raytec provides up to 591' of visible light to help cameras produce color video in otherwise dark environments. The unit's interchangeable lens system with HRT is designed to deliver even illumination without causing overexposed white spots. Three lenses are included, a 10 x 10° circular, a 35 x 10°, and a 60 x 25° elliptical lens.

PoE technology simplifies installation by enabling data and power to travel via a single cable. Suitable for outdoor use, the illuminator is housed in an IP66-rated weather-resistant enclosure.

Visible Illumination for Cameras    3727 Lumens, 6000K, up to 591' Range    Three Interchangeable Lenses    10 x 10°, 35 x 10° 60 x 25°    24 x Platinum Elite SMT LEDs    Hot-Spot Reduction Technology    Runs on PoE    U-Bracket Included for Installation    IP66 Rated for Outdoor Use

The VARIO2 PoE illuminator can be plugged into network infrastructure to simplify installation.

The angle of illumination can be quickly and precisely adjusted by changing the VARIO holographic lens insert to match your camera's field of view.

Hot-Spot Reduction Technology (HRT) produces a highly diffused elliptical beam to deliver more light where it is needed, maximizing illumination range and minimizing light wastage. HRT also prevents overexposure of foreground objects.

An LED status indicator is built into the illuminator for quick feedback on status and performance.

The VARIO2 pairs Platinum Elite SMT LED technology with the Cool Running thermal management system for flexible and reliable performance.

The programming inputs on both the VARIO remote control (available separately) and the VARIO2 illuminator can be disabled if required. Additionally, the remote control can be given a PIN code to lock-in settings and limit access.

Green features including power adjustment and telemetry control make for energy savings. The optional remote control offers timer functionality.

• Power adjustment from 20 to 100%
• Built-in photocell for automatic on/off
• Photocell sensitivity adjustment
• LED status indicator can be switched on/off

• Timer function (up to 30 minutes)
• Remote dimming
• Restore factory default settings
• Optional PIN to lock in settings and limit access
• Remote control can be disabled for improved security

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this work for a camera with these requirements Per camera: Hi-PoE: 42.5 VDC to 57 VDC, max. 38W/0.9 A?

A: This is passive poe. it most likely is not going to work with a surveillance camera

Q: 2. would it work with UniFi 6 Long-Range Access Point?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks U-POE-af PoE Adapter BH #UPOEAF will power the Ubiquiti Networks U6-LR UniFi 6 AX3000 Long-Range Access Point BH #UBU6LRUS.

Q: 3. I have the 4D Controller and the old AV-1081 (RS232 in only) if I buy this AV-1281 (RS232 in/out) can I control both Cameras?

A: Yes, the Avipas 4D controller supports - IP & Serial RS-232/422/485 Communication. Yes it should allow you to control IP Network cameras and RS-232 cameras simultaneously.

Q: 4. As this camera has PoE, is it possible for a single ethernet CAT6 cable to power the camera, receive video data with IP streaming into a software such as OBS, as well as receive camera control data from a joystick controller like the AV-3102, which would be plugged into another port on the ethernet switch? Is that the correct set up and can a single Cat6 cable handle all 3 of those functions? Thanks!

A: yes a single cat cable can handle this as long as you are using IP video. you will need a POE switch to provide power to the camera.

Q: 5. Can the camera's IP address be set manually to fit our network?

A: Yes, that should be possible.

Q: 6. How far away can the subject be?

A: At 10X, we recommend 40ft or less.

Q: 7. Will This power Cloud Key Plus, UCK-G2-PLUS?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks U-POE-af PoE Adapter BH #UPOEAF will work with the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Cloud Key Gen2 Plus BH #UBUCKG2PLUS which requires Standard 802.3af PoE

Q: 8. I plan to connect and control this camera with single ethernet cable using PoE. Can I use a 24V PoE injector with this camera or do I need a switch capable to 802.11af PoE?

A: Hi, you can either use a PoE switch or use an injector such as this: TP-Link TL-POE150S Power Over Ethernet Injector BH #TPTLPOE150S • MFR #TL-POE150S - https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/885633-REG/TP_Link_TL_POE150S_Power_Over_Ethernet.html.

Q: 9. Will this work with the Ubiquiti U6-LR

A: The Ubiquiti Networks POE-24-30W-G-WH PoE Injector (24 VDC, 30W, White) BH #UBPOE2430WGW will not support the Ubiquiti Networks U6-LR UniFi 6 AX3000 Long-Range Access Point BH #UBU6LRUS which requires higher voltage (DC Input Power - 44 57 VDC Power Consumption - 16.5 W). The Ubiquiti Networks 48V PoE Adapter with Gigabit LAN Port B&H # UBPOE4824WG is recommended.

Q: 10. Is this a POE+ (at) compatible unit?

A: This is not POE+, this is 24V.
