ANNKE NightChroma NCPT500 3K PT PoE Security Camera
The ANNKE NCPT500 is a wired pan and tilt PoE security camera designed for wide area monitoring with full colour night imaging. Its NightChroma technology combines a fast f/1.0 lens with a 3K 3072 × 1728 image, while remote pan and tilt control helps cover larger areas from a single camera position.
Key Features
- 3K resolution: 3072 × 1728
- Pan up to 340° and tilt up to 110°
- 2.8mm f/1.0 lens with 124.9° diagonal field of view
- NightChroma full colour night vision with supplementary white light up to 30m
- Built in microphone and speaker for two way audio
- General motion detection
- H.265+ / H.265 / H.264+ / H.264 video compression
- microSD card support up to 256GB
- PoE 802.3af or 12V DC power
- IP66 weather resistant housing for indoor or outdoor use
Wide Area Pan and Tilt Coverage
With up to 340° horizontal pan and 110° tilt, the NCPT500 can be repositioned remotely to monitor a wider area than a fixed view camera. It is suitable for entrances, gardens, yards, parking areas, warehouses and other locations where flexible viewing angles are useful.
NightChroma Colour Night Vision
The f/1.0 aperture and NightChroma imaging system are designed to retain more colour and detail in low light scenes. Supplementary white light can provide illumination when required for full colour night monitoring.
Two Way Audio
A built in microphone and speaker allow live listening and two way voice communication through a compatible ANNKE system or app configuration.
Storage and Compatibility
The camera can record to a compatible NVR and supports local microSD storage up to 256GB. It uses a standard RJ45 Ethernet connection and supports PoE for power and data over one network cable.
Supplied by HawkVision Pro in the UK. Check recorder compatibility, available PoE power and network configuration before installation.
Which ANNKE NVRs work with the ANNKE NightChroma NCPT500?
The ANNKE NightChroma NCPT500 is a recommended camera option for the ANNKE NVRs listed below for standard IP video, live view and recording. The pairing should be planned around available channels, the recorder’s published resolution and bandwidth limits, PoE power budget and current firmware.
Based on HawkVision Pro’s practical installation experience and the requirements customers most often bring us, same-brand ANNKE camera and NVR combinations generally provide stronger setup harmony and more predictable day-to-day operation than mixed-brand systems.
Important compatibility definition: compatibility here means the standard video and recording path at a supported resolution. Availability of camera-side AI events, two-way audio, active deterrence, white-light control, panoramic display or PT control can depend on the exact NVR model, channel settings and firmware. Ask HawkVision Pro to confirm any essential advanced feature before ordering.
What cable should be used?
For a reliable and cost-effective PoE installation, use genuine solid-copper Cat6 Ethernet cable rather than copper-clad aluminium (CCA). A standard Ethernet channel is normally limited to 100 metres end to end; use outdoor-rated cable and weatherproof the camera connection where required.
How do non-PoE NVRs connect?
The ANNKE NNR168 and NNR3212 do not power cameras directly. Connect the ANNKE NightChroma NCPT500 to a suitable IEEE 802.3af PoE switch or injector on the same network, then add it to the NVR.
Why choose this camera?
3K video, 340° pan and 110° tilt range, F1.0 colour night imaging, two-way audio, H.265+, IP66 protection and up to 256GB microSD storage.
