VERKADA HARDWARE Bullet Series CB62-TE network bullet camera, outdoor, 8 MP 3840×2160, H.264, PoE+ Class 2, LAN 10/100, vandal/weather-resistant, 60-day onboard storage (1TB)

The VERKADA HARDWARE Bullet Series CB62-TE is an outdoor network bullet camera that delivers 8 MP (3840×2160) resolution for color day/night monitoring. It uses H.264 video compression, supports 10/100 Mbps LAN connectivity and PoE+ Class 2 power over Ethernet. The camera is built in a vandal- and weather-resistant housing and offers multiple focal length options plus 60 days of onboard storage (1 TB) for extended local retention. This model is intended for deployments that require durable hardware and high-resolution continuous recording at perimeters, parking areas, and facility exteriors.

Advantages

The camera provides high-resolution 8 MP imaging that improves detail capture for identification and situational awareness. H.264 compression offers a balance between image quality and bandwidth/storage efficiency. PoE+ Class 2 simplifies installation by delivering power and data over a single Ethernet cable. The vandal- and weather-resistant enclosure increases reliability in exposed outdoor environments, while the integrated 1 TB onboard storage retains up to 60 days of footage locally, reducing dependence on continuous network storage.

Suitable for

• Perimeter surveillance of industrial or commercial sites
• Parking lot and garage monitoring
• Building exterior and entrance coverage
• Remote locations where local retention is required
• Areas requiring continuous, high-resolution recording

When it may not be suitable

This camera uses H.264 compression and may not provide the efficiency or advanced features of newer codecs such as H.265 for the same quality and bandwidth. Environments that require extremely low-light performance beyond standard color day/night capability or advanced analytics beyond the camera’s onboard features may require specialized models or additional systems.

Key specifications

• Image sensor resolution: 8 MP (3840 × 2160)
• Video compression: H.264
• Network: 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
• Power: PoE+ Class 2 (Power over Ethernet)
• Housing: vandal-resistant and weather-resistant enclosure
• Onboard storage: 1 TB, approximately 60 days retention (dependent on settings)
• Form factor: outdoor bullet camera with telephoto/focal length options

How to use

Mount the CB62-TE on a stable surface with appropriate brackets and aim the lens to cover the desired field of view. Connect the camera to your network switch or PoE injector using a Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernet cable to provide both power and data. Configure network settings and recording parameters through the compatible management platform; adjust resolution, frame rate, and compression settings to balance image quality and storage use. Regularly check the enclosure seals and mounts to ensure continued weather and vandal resistance.

What to consider before purchase

• Compatibility with your existing network infrastructure and management platform
• Available PoE+ power on switches or need for PoE injectors
• Required retention period and whether 1 TB/60 days meets your policy
• Environmental conditions and mounting options for outdoor installation
• Desired focal length or telephoto option for required coverage distance

Usage recommendations

For reliable outdoor operation, install the camera with a clear line of sight and protect cable entry points from water ingress. Use network switches that support PoE+ Class 2 to ensure stable power delivery. Configure recording resolution and frame rate according to scene activity to optimize the onboard 1 TB storage; reduce frame rate or enable motion-based recording if extended retention is needed.
