Product SKU: PKC2641-Z80-IR-P
Product Overview
The Uniview PKC2641-Z80-IR-P is a high-performance 4MP ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) bullet camera engineered for vehicle identification and intelligent access control. Featuring a powerful 1/1.8″ CMOS sensor and motorised 8–32mm lens, it delivers precise license plate capture across varying distances and lane setups. With integrated IR illumination and advanced recognition algorithms, it ensures reliable performance day and night, even in challenging lighting conditions.
Why Choose the PKC2641-Z80-IR-P
This is a purpose-built ANPR camera—not just a standard CCTV unit—meaning it actively detects, reads and processes license plates in real time. It supports allowlist and blocklist functionality for automated access control, making it ideal for gates, car parks and secure facilities. Its high frame rate and intelligent image processing ensure accurate capture of moving vehicles, even at higher speeds.

Understanding ANPR Cameras
ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras are designed specifically to capture and interpret vehicle license plates using optimised imaging, infrared illumination and AI algorithms. Unlike standard CCTV cameras, they can automatically log plate numbers, trigger events and integrate with access control systems, making them essential for automated security and traffic management applications.
Ideal Use Cases
- Gated Facilities – Automate entry using license plate recognition for authorised vehicles.
- Car Parks – Track vehicle entry/exit and improve parking management.
- Industrial & Logistics Sites – Monitor vehicle movement and enhance perimeter security.
- Commercial Buildings – Integrate with boom gates and access systems for controlled entry.
FAQs
- How accurate is ANPR on this camera?
It uses a dedicated AI algorithm with high accuracy for standard license plates, especially when installed correctly for distance and angle.
- Can it capture plates at night?
Yes. The integrated IR system and optimised imaging ensure clear plate capture even in complete darkness.
- Can it trigger gates automatically?
Yes. It supports allowlists and integration with barrier systems for automated vehicle access control.
