LevelOne GEMINI PTZ IP Network Camera, 2-Megapixel, 20X Optical Zoom, Indoor/Outdoor, IR LEDs, two-way audio, 802.3at PoE

The LevelOne GEMINI FCS-4051 is a 2‑megapixel PTZ IP surveillance camera designed for outdoor and indoor monitoring. It provides 1920 x 1080 resolution at up to 60 fps, 20X optical zoom and motorised pan/tilt control to cover wide areas and zoom in on details. The camera supports H.264 and MJPEG compression, has built-in IR LEDs for night vision up to 100 m, a Micro SD/SDHC slot for local storage and dual power options including 12V DC and PoE (IEEE 802.3at). Its IP66-rated weatherproof housing enables reliable operation in rain, dust, snow and humidity.

Advantages

High-definition 2MP image quality (1920 x 1080) with a 20X optical zoom and motorised pan/tilt movement provides flexible and detailed coverage. The device supports H.264 and MJPEG video compression for efficient recording and streaming, while onboard IR LEDs extend monitoring capability at night up to 100 m. Local recording is possible via the built-in Micro SD/SDHC card slot. Dual power support (12V DC and PoE IEEE 802.3at) and a Fast Ethernet wired connection simplify installation and cabling. The IP66-rated housing ensures weather resistance for outdoor placements.

Suitable for

• Perimeter and outdoor site surveillance
• Large-area monitoring where pan/tilt/zoom is required (car parks, campuses, warehouses)
• Locations requiring night vision and long-range IR coverage
• Installations benefiting from Power over Ethernet (PoE) for simplified wiring

How to use

Mount the camera according to the selected mounting type (ceiling or appropriate outdoor bracket) and connect it to your network via a Cat‑5/6 cable. For simplified installation use PoE (IEEE 802.3at) to supply power and data over the same cable, or connect a 12V DC power source if PoE is not available. Configure the camera using the manufacturer’s setup utility or web interface: set resolution and frame rate, select H.264 or MJPEG compression, and configure motion detection or preset PTZ positions as needed. Insert a Micro SD/SDHC card into the onboard slot for local recording if required.

Recommendations

For reliable outdoor performance, install the camera under a protective overhang if possible and ensure cable connections are weather-sealed. Use PoE switches compliant with IEEE 802.3at for stable power delivery when employing long cable runs, and schedule periodic lens and housing inspections to maintain image clarity and IR performance.
