VA-GIP-H265-8MP-20GC-P, 8 Megapixel CMOS Image Sensor, Industrial IP Camera, ONVIF

The VA-GIP-H265-8MP-20GC-P is an 8MP industrial IP camera developed for network-based industrial imaging, OEM equipment and machine integration. It combines 4K imaging, remote network access, ONVIF compatibility and Power over Ethernet in a compact housing.

Its C/CS-mount provides flexibility when selecting optics for different working distances and fields of view.

Why choose this industrial IP camera?

• Extended product lifecycle: At least five years of availability for long-term OEM and industrial projects.
• Remote network access: View and configure the camera through its built-in web interface.
• Standard IP protocols: Supports established protocols such as RTSP, HTTP, HTTPS, TCP/IP and RTP.
• ONVIF compatible: Integrates with compatible third-party video-management systems.
• Easy installation: PoE combines power and network communication in one cable, while mounting points support mechanical integration.
• Compact OEM design: The 35 × 35 × 30 mm housing fits into machines and equipment with limited installation space.

Extended product lifecycle

The VA-GIP-H265-8MP-20GC-P is designed with an extended product lifecycle of at least five years. This supports long-term integration into industrial equipment, OEM products and automation systems where continued camera availability is important.

Remote access and ONVIF integration

The built-in web interface allows the camera to be accessed and configured remotely through a network connection. The Windows-based IP Manager can also be used to discover and configure cameras within the network.

ONVIF compatibility simplifies integration with compatible third-party video-management systems. Supported network protocols include HTTP, HTTPS, TCP/IP, UDP, RTP, RTCP, RTSP, FTP, NTP, DHCP, DNS, DDNS, SSL/TLS, UPnP and PPPoE.

Easy integration with Power over Ethernet

The VA-GIP-H265-8MP-20GC-P supports IEEE 802.3af/at Power over Ethernet. Power and network communication can therefore share one Ethernet connection, reducing the amount of cabling required inside machines and distributed imaging systems.

The camera can alternatively be powered using 12 V DC and has a specified power consumption of only 2.5 W. Mounting points on the housing support mechanical integration into OEM equipment and industrial systems.

Compact industrial design

The camera measures only 35 × 35 × 30 mm and weighs 102 g, making it suitable for systems where installation space is limited.

The product is rated IP3x. This means it has basic protection against accidental contact and foreign objects larger than 2.5mm. You should not assume it is protected against water, rain, splashes, or washdown

Industrial IP camera with 8MP resolution

The camera uses an 8.29 MP, 1/2.8" CMOS rolling-shutter sensor with 1.45 µm pixels. It produces colour images at a maximum resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels.

At its maximum resolution, the camera supports frame rates from 1 to 20 fps. When a higher frame rate is required, it can deliver up to 30 fps at 2880 × 1620, 2560 × 1440 or 1920 × 1080.

Efficient simultaneous video streaming

Dual simultaneous video streams are supported, allowing different resolutions, frame rates or compressed video streams to be used within the same network-based imaging system.

The camera supports H.265+, H.265, H.264 and MJPEG compression. These formats help reduce the bandwidth and storage required for high-resolution video transmission.

Flexible C/CS-mount optics

Unlike an IP camera with integrated optics, the VA-GIP-H265-8MP-20GC-P features a CS-mount and includes a 5 mm C-mount extension ring, allowing both CS-mount and C-mount lenses to be used. This enables the lens to be selected according to the required field of view, working distance and resolution.

The selected C/CS-mount lens should provide an image circle suitable for at least the camera’s 1/2.8" sensor format. 

Advanced imaging controls

The camera sensor provides ≥100 dB Wide Dynamic Range together with 2D and 3D noise reduction, helping maintain usable image detail under challenging lighting conditions.

Exposure and gain can be controlled automatically or manually. Additional controls include automatic and manual white balance, adjustable white-balance scene and style settings, image mirroring and image flipping.
