3 Description Alliance-mx dome cameras provide exceptional image quality in the most demanding indoor/outdoor environments. With support for up to 5MP resolution, the Alliance-mx uses Main profile H.264 to deliver exceptional high-definition clarity at up to 30 frames-per-second. Simultaneous H.264 and MJPEG video streaming offers flexibility to optimize live viewing and recording while providing access to video for other applications.
6 Mounting Options The Alliance-mx camera is designed to be used in one of the following configurations. NOTE: If the Alliance-mx is to be installed on a hard surface that prohibits direct access to cabling, the optional IQM-BOX, which includes the IQA-CAB, must be used. If the surface allows running cables directly to the camera dome, such as a drop ceiling, the optional IQA-CAB only can be used for the audio in/out, I/O relay, and analog video output if needed.
