Verkada CD53-E Outdoor Dome Camera, 5MP, Zoom Lens, 1TB of Storage

The CD53-E dome camera provides precise 5MP coverage in a range of outdoor environments. With a 1 / 2.8" progressive CMOS image sensor, varifocal lens with 2.86x optical zoom, and 30 meters / 98 feet of IR range, the CD53-E offers consistent image quality in inclement weather and varying lighting conditions. The CD53-E includes an onboard CV75S Ambarella processor to support advanced analytics like AI-powered search, Occupancy Trends, line crossing, loitering, and Person of Interest (POI) alerts. The CD53-E excels at covering large outdoor areas such as busy intersections, public courtyards, outdoor transit hubs, and exposed subway platforms -- serving as a dependable camera for enterprise deployments where detailed people and vehicle capture at distance is critical to expedite investigations.

Engineered for challenging outdoor environments, the CD53-E’s IP66/67 weather and IK10 impact ratings enable the device to withstand harsh conditions. Its in-house design promotes a seamless installation experience, featuring captive screws that remain attached to the mounting plate, a latch-based cable gland for easy PoE threading, a three-LED status light indicator, and a built-in bubble level to help ensure precise alignment.
