Does the BC510 support third-party systems? The BC510 is compatible with other NVR and VMS platforms via ONVIF support. For the best user experience and access to all advanced capabilities, using the BC510 with Synology Surveillance Station is recommended. What lens and sensor does the BC510 use? BC510 is equipped with a 2.8 mm F1.8 lens, with a 5 MP 1/2.7” sensor optimized for video surveillance, delivering 110° H, 56° V, 132° D wide-angle views. Videos are streamed at 2880x1620 (16:9) @ 30 FPS (max). The lens on the BC510 cannot be changed. How powerful are the IR LEDs on the BC510? There are four 1 W LEDs, which can deliver 30 m of night vision. Which codecs does the BC510 support? BC510 supports H.264 and H.265 for video and G.711 for audio. What type of switch can be used to power the BC510? Power over Ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af compliant switches. BC510 has a power consumption of under 5 W. Is BC510 an outdoor camera? BC510 is IP67-rated for weather resistance. It is rated to continuously operate between -22 °F and 122 °F, or between -22 °F to 104 °F when IR is turned on (5%~95% RH). What AI analytics does the BC510 support? The BC510 features built-in AI for People and Vehicle Detection, People and Vehicle Counting, and Intrusion Detection. For advanced analytics, such as License Plate Recognition, the camera must be paired with a Synology DVA series NVR. How long can the BC510 record to their microSD cards without syncing to the recording server? The BC510 camera provides edge recording support with microSD cards, which enables failover storage for enhanced system reliability during network failure. Recording autonomy depends on the bitrate (which, if set to Variable Bitrate, in turn depends on the scene) and the size of the SD card. For example: A 16 Mbps stream will generate about 179 GB per day. Thus, a 256 GB microSD card can comfortably store at least 31 hours of footage. How to configure the BC510 for the best image quality? To ensure optimal image quality, you can refer to the Synology Camera Placement and Image Optimization Guide. This user guide covers key factors and considerations for camera placement and image optimization. Does the camera support POE+? The BC510 supports the PoE (IEEE 802.3af Type 1 Class 3) standard. Since the PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) standard is backward compatible, using a PoE+ compliant switch with the BC510 is fully supported. However, if using a non-standard passive PoE switch or injector, please ensure it provides a 48V output and sufficient wattage to properly power Synology cameras.
