What’s included and what’s sold separately
Set the framing around a gate or lane
The ACTi Z412 is a wired outdoor camera. Start wide to include the approach, then narrow the optical view if one area needs more of the frame. Check autofocus and the night image at the chosen setting.
The 2.8–12mm lens provides 4.3x optical zoom and installation autofocus. The horizontal view ranges from 103.6° wide to 33.4° narrow. Video reaches 1080p at 30 fps. Review the full specifications.
What will I see at night?
Adaptive infrared illuminates up to 197 ft (60 m) under suitable conditions for black-and-white video. Test the scene at the zoom setting you will use. Illumination reach and identification distance are different. Check the view at the subject distance you need.
Plan power and recording
Use IEEE 802.3af PoE for power and data on Ethernet, or supply compatible 12V DC power separately and use Ethernet for data. The camera is rated at 7 W over PoE. For recording at the camera, use a compatible Kingston or SanDisk microSD card up to 512 GB. For a central system, check the recorder or VMS and its storage. Profile G edge-recording integration depends on the exact software and version. Compare the optional recorders and setup requirements.
What comes with the camera?
One camera, two documents, one printed card, one cable-accessory pack, one screw pack, and one drilling template. Supply compatible power, Ethernet, storage and optional equipment separately.
Choose the right mounting parts
ACTi PMAX-0729 Sold separately. Use the junction box to house the camera’s cable connection at the mounting point.
ACTi PMAX-0538 Sold separately. Pair it with one PMAX-0729 per camera for a supported 2.64–5-inch vertical pole.

WHY THIS CAMERA
Set the framing around a gate or lane
Start wide to include the approach, then narrow the optical view if one area needs more of the frame. Check autofocus and the night image at the chosen setting.
Plan for daylight and after dark
120 dB wide dynamic range helps with bright and shaded areas. Adaptive infrared is rated up to 60 m (about 197 ft) under suitable conditions. Infrared produces black-and-white video in darkness. Provide suitable scene lighting if you need color after dark.
Review the events that matter
Person and vehicle detection, tamper detection, object motion and line-crossing, and intrusion detection. A compatible recorder must support any events you want it to receive.
OUTDOOR APPLICATIONS
Three places to use this camera
Start with the area you want to see and the equipment you already own.
ENTRANCES
Frame an entrance or approach
Start wide at a gate or driveway, then use the installation zoom to give a specific entrance more of the frame.
Installation concept illustration.
SERVICE AREAS
Plan exterior wall or pole coverage
For a supported 2.64–5-inch vertical pole, use one PMAX-0538 pole mount and one PMAX-0729 junction box per camera. Both are sold separately. Protect the cable connections and check the mounting surface before drilling.
Installation concept illustration.
WIRED SYSTEMS
Extend an existing wired system
Use an available channel on a compatible recorder or VMS. Check Ethernet reach, the PoE budget, and how the recorder handles the selected streams and events.
Installation concept illustration.
POWER, NETWORK AND RECORDING
Plan power, recording and playback
Run Ethernet to the camera, choose power, then confirm where video will be recorded and how you will review it.
- Camera Captures 2MP video and one-way microphone audio.
- Network and power Use an IEEE 802.3af PoE switch or injector, or a suitable 12V DC source with Ethernet. The camera is rated at 7 W over PoE.
- Recorder or storage Choose a compatible recorder, VMS, or an applicable storage path below.
- Playback Review footage in the playback tools for your configured recording system.
Match the stream to your recorder
Choose from H.265, H.264, and MJPEG. The camera supports simultaneous dual streams. Check which resolution, frame rate, and format your recorder can save.
Decide what should trigger an event
Person and vehicle detection, tamper detection, object motion and line-crossing, and intrusion detection. Test which events your receiving system can record or notify on.
Add one-way sound when appropriate
The built-in microphone supplies G.711 audio to a compatible system. Enable it only where appropriate for your site.
Protect network access
Use a strong password and HTTPS where supported by your setup. Plan user access and test any privacy masks before recording.
INSTALLATION GUIDANCE
Plan the Z412 view, power and mounting point
Choose the scene, mounting surface and cable path before drilling. Allow room for the connectors and protect the outdoor cable connection.
-
CLEARVERO GUIDANCE
Choose the camera position
Set the zoom and autofocus during installation. The wide end takes in the approach, while the narrow end puts more of the frame on one target area. Avoid obstructions and verify the area during daylight and after dark.
-
CLEARVERO GUIDANCE
Provide power and Ethernet
Use an IEEE 802.3af PoE switch or injector, or a suitable 12V DC source with Ethernet. The camera is rated at 7 W over PoE. Keep connectors accessible for installation and service.

CLEARVERO GUIDANCE
Test recordings and events
The camera supports ONVIF Profiles S, G, and T. Verify the recorder’s supported profile, stream format, resolution, audio and event functions before installation. Test day and night recordings before leaving the site.
PUT IT TO WORK
Build around the equipment you already have
Check your site and existing equipment before buying mounting parts or storage.
You already have a recorder
Check available camera channels and confirm your recorder can accept the camera’s stream settings. Test playback on the recorder you intend to use.
You are starting a wired system
Plan camera power, a compatible recorder or VMS, and storage before choosing retention settings.
Lighting and cable protection
Adaptive infrared is rated up to 60 m (about 197 ft) under suitable conditions. Infrared produces black-and-white video in darkness. Provide suitable scene lighting if you need color after dark. Keep the illuminators clear of nearby reflective surfaces and protect exposed connections.
VIEW AND PLACEMENT
