About CCTV IR Illuminator
A CCTV IR illuminator is an extra infrared lamp for yards, loading areas and long driveways where the camera's built-in LEDs fade out before the view does. iComply match beam angle and range to the lens so the picture is even rather than a white hotspot.
Built-in IR is often enough for a doorway and useless across a car park. We measure the view, choose a lamp that covers it without blasting the near field, and power it from a suitable supply or PoE injector where the product allows. Aim, photocell threshold and camera exposure are set at night or with the scene darkened, not from a daytime guess. If white light is a better fit for colour recognition we say so. Installs are quoted after we see mounting height, cable route and the camera already on site.
- ●Range and beam angle matched to the lens, not a generic lamp
- ●Mount and power planned with the existing camera
- ●Night aim so the near field is not washed out
- ●White-light option discussed when colour detail matters

CCTV IR Illuminator FAQ
Why is the image bright close up and black further away?+
The camera's own LEDs are lighting the near field and exposing for that. A separate illuminator, or a change of exposure, is how we even the view out.
Do IR lamps work in heavy rain and fog?+
They help, but heavy moisture still scatters infrared. We set expectations from the site rather than quoting a brochure range.
Can you add a lamp without changing the camera?+
Often yes, if there is a mount and a safe power source. We confirm voltage and weather rating on the survey.
