CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q

Overview

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q is a CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q from CP Plus, designed for professional IP surveillance in residential, commercial, and industrial environments. Built around a 1/2.9” 2MP PS CMOS Image Sensor (0.8758 centimeter), it captures 2MP(1920 × 1080) / 1.3M (1280 × 960) / 1MP(1280 × 720) / D1 (704 × 576 / 704 × 480) / VGA (640 × 480) / CIF (352 × 288 / 352 × 240) video at Main stream: 1080p@(1–25/30 fps), 1.3M@(1–25/30 fps), 720p@(1–25/30 fps) Sub stream 1: D1@(1–25/30 fps), VGA@(1–25/30 fps), CIF@(1–25/30 fps) Sub stream 2: 1080p@(1–25/30 fps),1.3M@(1–25/30 fps), 720p@(1–25/30 fps), D1@(1–25/30 fps) Sub stream 3: D1@(1– 25/30 fps), VGA@(1–25/30 fps), CIF@(1–25/30 fps) with Instastream, H.265, H.264, H.264B, H.264H, MJPEG (only supported by sub stream) encoding for bandwidth-efficient storage and streaming. The camera combines reliable performance with easy integration into CP Plus NVR systems and third-party ONVIF-compatible platforms.

Image Quality And Resolution

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q uses a 1/2.9” 2MP PS CMOS Image Sensor (0.8758 centimeter) delivering 2MP(1920 × 1080) / 1.3M (1280 × 960) / 1MP(1280 × 720) / D1 (704 × 576 / 704 × 480) / VGA (640 × 480) / CIF (352 × 288 / 352 × 240) output with a C/CS providing a wide coverage angle for effective scene monitoring. Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology balances exposure in scenes with mixed bright and dark areas, while 3D Digital Noise Reduction keeps footage clean in challenging low-light conditions. BLC, HLC, and DWDR functions ensure subjects remain visible even against strong backlight sources.

Video Compression And Streaming

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q supports Instastream, H.265, H.264, H.264B, H.264H, MJPEG (only supported by sub stream) with triple-stream capability, enabling simultaneous high-resolution recording and low-bandwidth remote viewing without extra hardware. CP Plus Instastream technology reduces storage consumption significantly compared to standard H.264 encoding. CBR and VBR bitrate control modes allow administrators to optimise storage space usage against consistent network bandwidth requirements.

Night Vision And Low Light

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q provides Off/On with Smart IR intensity control that automatically adjusts LED output based on subject distance, preventing overexposure at close range. The ICR (IR Cut filter Removable) mechanism switches automatically between colour daytime mode and monochrome night mode at configurable light thresholds. The camera achieves 0 Lux minimum illumination with IR active, ensuring usable footage in complete darkness.

Network And Connectivity

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q connects via DC 12V (±30%), AC 24V (±30%), PoE (802.3af) over a standard RJ-45 interface, supporting IPv4, IPv6, HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, UDP, RTP, RTSP, RTCP, RTMP, SMTP V3, SFTP, DHCP, DNS, DDNS, QoS, UPnP, NTP, Multicast, ICMP, IGMP, NAS, PPPoE, SNMP, Auto Connect, TLS v1.2 and v1.3, ONVIF (Profile S, Profile G, Profile T) for broad compatibility with NVR, VMS, and cloud platforms. ONVIF Profile S, G, and T compliance ensures interoperability with third-party recording and management systems without proprietary lock-in. Secure HTTPS and TLS-encrypted RTSP streams protect video data in transit across shared network infrastructure.

Security And Protection

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q implements AES 256-bit Encryption, Configuration encryption, trusted execution, Digest, Security logs, WSSE, Account lockout, Syslog, Video encryption, 802.1x, Allow list/Block list, HTTPS, Trusted upgrade, Trusted boot, Firmware encryption along with HTTPS, IP/MAC address filtering, account lockout policies, and syslog support for audit trails. Trusted boot and firmware integrity checks prevent unauthorised firmware from running on the device. The camera is certified to MTBF Certificate from STQC, ISO9001, CE, FCC and RoHS, BIS, STQC approved compliance report, confirming compliance with international safety and electromagnetic compatibility standards.

Use Cases

The CP-UNC-BE21C-VMDS-Q suits commercial retail, office buildings, warehouses, parking areas, and perimeter security installations where consistent HD video and reliable IR night vision are required. Its IP67 weatherproof rating and -30° C to +60° C operating range make it suitable for permanent outdoor installation in varied climates. PoE power delivery simplifies installation by eliminating separate power cabling to each camera location.
