VIVOTEK  
Overview  
VIVOTEK FD8133V(Wired)/34V(PoE) is an easy-to-use fixed dome network camera specifically  
designed for indoor/outdoor security applications with a compact, stylish vandal-proof exterior.  
Equipped with a 1MP sensor enabling viewing resolution of 1280x800 at 30 fps, users need look  
no further for an all-in-one camera capable of capturing high quality, high resolution video.  
The FD8133V/34V supports the industry-standard H.264 compression technology, drastically  
reducing file sizes and conserving valuable network bandwidth. With MPEG-4 and MJPEG  
compatibility also included, video streams can also be transmitted in any of these formats  
for versatile applications. The streams can also be individually configured to meet different  
constraints, thereby further reducing bandwidth and storage requirements. Users can thus  
receive multiple streams simultaneously in different resolutions, frame rates, and image qualities  
for viewing on different platforms.  
Its IP66-rated housing protects the camera body against rain and dust and ensures operation  
under poor weather conditions. Furthermore, the metal vandal-proof housing effectively provides  
robust protection from vandalism. Also included are a number of advanced features standard  
on VIVOTEK cameras, including tamper detection, MicroSD/SDHC card slot, 802.3af compliant  
PoE (FD8134V), removable IR-cut filter and built-in IR illuminators, and VIVOTEK’s 32-channel  
recording software. With all of these capabilities, the FD8133V/34V presents the best value in IP  
surveillance for indoor/outdoor applications.
