Bullet Cameras

Bullet cameras have a long, tubular body that is clearly visible, which makes them an effective deterrent. They are usually mounted on walls, poles or brackets outdoors, and their shape suits long, narrow views such as driveways, perimeters and building elevations. This range covers IP bullet cameras with fixed, varifocal and long-zoom lenses from brands including Axis, Dahua, Bosch and Ajax.

Choosing a bullet camera

• Lens: a 2.8mm fixed lens gives a wide view; 6mm and above gives a narrower, more detailed one. Varifocal lenses can be adjusted on site, which helps when the mounting distance is not known in advance.
• Infrared range: built-in IR illuminators are quoted in metres on the datasheet. Pick a range that comfortably covers the distance to the target area.
• Weather rating: IP66 or IP67 is designed for outdoor use. Check the operating temperature range for exposed sites.
• Analytics: some models include deep-learning or AI classification for people and vehicles. Check which events your recorder can use.
• Specialist models: ANPR and explosion-protected bullets are included where listed.

Most bullets here are PoE, so a single network cable carries power and video to a PoE NVR or DVR recorder or PoE switch. To compare other camera styles, browse all CCTV cameras.

Each listing shows the manufacturer part number so you can match the specification to your design.
