The XHM2110C-ABF delivers 4250 m person detection via a 110 mm ABF lens and 0.001 lux sensitivity as a bare OEM module, designed for custom housing integration in border and infrastructure surveillance platforms.
Several surveillance system integrators awarded contracts under recent national border modernisation programmes have encountered a common procurement constraint: the tender specifies long-range passive optical capability at 4000 m or greater, but the platform housing, gimbal assembly, and environmental enclosure must be designed by the integrator to meet site-specific installation requirements. Off-the-shelf complete camera systems rarely match the mechanical envelope, interface standard, or environmental rating demanded by custom installations at remote or hardened sites, pushing integrators toward modular sensor procurement where only the optical and electronic core is sourced externally.
Long-Range OEM Module for Custom Surveillance Integration
The XHM2110C-ABF is designed for precisely that procurement model, providing a 110 mm auto-back-focus lens paired with a starlight-class CMOS sensor rated to 0.001 lux at 10 fps as a bare module for integration into custom housings and gimbal assemblies. Person detection reaches 4250 m and vehicle detection extends to 9600 m, matching the detection geometry of complete long-range surveillance systems at the optical core level while leaving mechanical integration, environmental sealing, and interface design to the system integrator. Auto-back-focus compensation maintains sharpness across the thermal cycling experienced by outdoor fixed installations without requiring manual focus correction during overnight temperature drops or daytime heating cycles.
Integration into Custom Border and Infrastructure Platforms
The XHM2110C-ABF is suited to integration programmes where the surveillance platform must meet non-standard mechanical constraints, such as hardened tower mounts at border crossings, concealed installation positions at critical infrastructure sites, or vehicle-mounted pan-tilt assemblies where the camera module mass and envelope must be minimised. Integrators receive the optical and sensor core without the external housing, allowing the module to be installed into custom-fabricated enclosures rated for the specific environmental conditions of the deployment site, whether that involves salt spray resistance for coastal installations or extreme cold ratings for arctic border posts.
ABF Calibration and Long-Term Operational Reliability
At 110 mm focal length, auto-back-focus is a practical necessity rather than a convenience feature for fixed outdoor installations. Manual focus drift over a twelve-month operational cycle at a remote site translates directly into degraded detection performance at the outer range band, often without operator awareness until a detection failure is reported. The ABF mechanism in the XHM2110C-ABF eliminates that maintenance dependency, making it a fit for unattended long-range surveillance nodes where periodic focus adjustment is not operationally feasible. System integrators building platforms for programmes with three-to-five-year maintenance intervals benefit from the reduced field service requirement the ABF architecture provides at this focal length.
