CHAPTER 4 – Camera Housing and Mounting

What is the purpose of camera housings?

• To house indoor cameras

• To conceal the camera's viewing direction

• To protect surveillance cameras from environmental influences

• To provide an intelligent algorithm

What does IP stand for in the context of enclosures for surveillance cameras?

• Ingress Protection

• Ingress Protocol

• Ingress Perimeter

• Ingress Performance

What does the first digit of the IP code represent?

• Protection against ingress of dusk

• Protection against ingress of liquids

• Protection against ingress of solid objects

• Protection against ingress of glass

What does the second digit of the IP code represent?

• Protection against ingress of dust

• Protection against ingress of liquids

• Protection against ingress of solid objects

• Protection against ingress of glass

How does the ingress protection rating system classifies the level of protection for surveillance cameras enclosures?

• Through digits in IP code

• Through letters in IP code

• Through symbols in IP code

• Through algorithms in IP code

What are the two main types of coverings?

• Plastic and silicon

• Rubber and glass

• Metal and plastic

• Transparent and smoked

What is the purpose of having a smoked cover?

• To conceal their viewing direction

• To improve emergency preparedness

• To protect the surveillance cameras from environmental influences

• To detect and alert users of a change in a camera’s operating conditions

What type of housing is used for outdoor cameras?

• Vandal-resistant and humidity-resistant

• Vandal-resistant and vibration-resistant

• Vandal-resistant and weather-resistant

• Dust-resistant and weather-resistant

What is the purpose of a vandal-resistant housing?

• To resist violent attacks

• To protect against water

• To protect against dust

• To resist against low volume

What type of weather-resistant housing is needed for cameras to be used in extremely warm or cold environments?

• A housing with a built-in humidifier

• A housing with a built-in heater and fan

• A housing with a built-in air conditioner

• A housing with a built-in humidifier
