Verkada CH52-E Multisensor Camera
Overview
- Verkada’s CH52-E multisensor camera features four camera heads, providing unrivaled coverage from a single install point. The four 5MP sensors collectively capture 20MP of resolution. Each camera head can be repositioned and each lens can be zoomed up to 2.5x, allowing for comprehensive coverage while maintaining image detail. Each camera head is powered by a dedicated computer vision processor to provide the image quality, stability and analytics performance of four independent cameras.
- The CH52-E is built to withstand extreme conditions. Sealed interior components have full IP66 rated protection against dust particles and heavy rain. The robust exterior housing provides IK10 rated protection against direct impacts from vandals, hail and flying debris. Like all Verkada cameras, the CH52-E works out–of –the–box without any additional configurations. The CH52-E only requires a single PoE++ network port, making it the most efficient choice for scaling coverage while minimizing cable runs and port use.

The amount of high quality video stored on the camera will depend on the amount of motion detected by the camera over time.
