The Roughneck® V-CELL high-security camera is an integrated housing, camera, lens and IR
illuminators system specifically designed for use in custodial suites and prison cells. It is available in
an analog version and IP version that is fully compatible with all ViconNet® systems; its ONVIF
certification provides an open-platform for integration into other video management systems.
The housing is designed to fit into a corner; once installed, the base plate should be permanently
sealed to the wall so that the housing is ligature proof. The housing consists of a two part stainless
steel assembly, a fixed base plate and a removable front plate, that allows ease of installation and
servicing. The front plate is secured with security screws and has two polycarbonate windows to
protect the camera and IR illuminators. The alarm input and alarm output can be used to connect
various third party devices, such as door sensors and alarm bells.
