VERKADA HARDWARE Bullet Series CB62-TE network surveillance camera — 8 MP 3840×2160, outdoor vandal- and weather-resistant, H.264, PoE+ Class 2, 90-day onboard storage

The VERKADA HARDWARE Bullet Series CB62-TE is an outdoor network surveillance camera delivering 8 MP (3840×2160) resolution with color day/night imaging. Built for exposed installations, the CB62-TE combines high-resolution capture, vandal- and weather-resistant housing, and onboard retention to support continuous local recording for up to 90 days. It supports H.264 compression, 10/100 LAN connectivity and Power over Ethernet (PoE+ Class 2), and is available with telephoto focal lengths suitable for perimeter and long-range monitoring.

Advantages

The camera offers 8 MP image quality for detailed scene capture and a weatherproof, IK10-rated exterior that resists impact and environmental elements. Its onboard 90-day storage provides local retention without immediate cloud dependency, while H.264 compression reduces network bandwidth usage. PoE+ Class 2 simplifies installation by combining power and data over a single cable, and multiple focal length options allow adaptation to different surveillance ranges.

Suitable for

• Perimeter and fence-line surveillance where long-range detail is required
• Outdoor entrances, parking lots and facility exteriors subject to vandal risk
• Public-space monitoring that requires continuous local retention
• Sites with PoE infrastructure seeking simplified cabling and installation

When it may not be suitable

This model uses H.264 encoding; environments that require the most efficient modern codecs (for example H.265/HEVC) for reduced storage and bandwidth may find the CB62-TE less optimal. Likewise, locations that need integrated advanced analytics or extreme low-light performance beyond standard color day/night imaging should verify that the camera’s feature set meets their specific requirements.

• Network: 10/100 LAN connectivity
• Power: Power over Ethernet (PoE+ Class 2)
• Construction: Weather-resistant and vandal-resistant housing (outdoor-rated)
• Onboard storage: 90 days of local retention
• Focal length: Available in multiple telephoto focal lengths suitable for long-range viewing

How to use

Install the camera at a stable mounting point ensuring the lens is aimed at the intended coverage area and the housing seals are properly tightened for outdoor use. Connect to the network using the 10/100 LAN port and supply power via a PoE+ Class 2-enabled switch or injector to deliver both network connectivity and power through a single cable. Configure basic settings — resolution, compression, retention period — through the manufacturer’s management interface, and verify recording to the onboard storage. Adjust focal length or zoom as required for target coverage and focus the lens according to the provided installation guide.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm required focal length and field of view for your coverage distances
• Verify PoE+ Class 2 availability on your network switch or plan for an injector
• Evaluate whether H.264 compression meets your bandwidth and storage needs
• Ensure mounting location provides appropriate protection and cable routing for outdoor installation

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, mount the camera at an appropriate height to reduce tampering risk, use shielded outdoor-rated Ethernet cabling, and perform periodic firmware updates and lens cleaning. Test recording and playback from onboard storage after installation and adjust exposure settings to balance image detail across day and night conditions.
