Powerline dome camera PRO
A professional CCTV system when cabling isn’t an option.
In an existing building, running new cables is often impractical. Wi-Fi seems the obvious alternative, but it weakens with every metre, every wall and every extra wireless device. With the Bascom® POWER system, you use the cables already in place: your mains wiring. Connect each camera to the nearest socket and it links straight to the recorder, even at the other end of the building. No chasing walls, just the stability of a wired connection.
Yes. As long as the barn, garage or warehouse is powered from the main building, every socket there becomes a connection point too. This works with cable runs of up to 500 metres.
Yes. The signal travels between circuits and, with a three-phase supply, between phases. So you can connect the cameras and the recorder to any socket.
That’s what the Bascom® POWER Outdoor Adapter is for. This version has no plug and connects directly to the mains cable, both indoors and outdoors. You can order the adapter separately, by phone or email.
Discreet dome model: Thanks to its circular design, it blends into its surroundings and conceals the exact viewing direction. Suitable for wall or ceiling mounting.
Industrial build quality for years of reliability.
A professional CCTV system is a long-term investment. That is why Bascom exclusively designs security cameras built to withstand extreme weather conditions and vandalism:
Solid aluminium housing with a rust and UV-resistant coating.
Impact-resistant dome that is 250 times stronger than glass.
IP67-rated for 100% water and dust resistance.
Flawless performance in temperatures ranging from -30 °C to 55 °C.
The system that always works. Even without the internet.
CCTV should never rely on a patchy internet connection or external servers. That is why this system is built around a physical recorder that runs continuously, day and night. If the internet goes down, recording continues uninterrupted. You won't miss a single moment.
Yes. Although the system records completely independently, you can easily connect the recorder to your internet. This allows you to watch live securely from anywhere in the world via the app for your smartphone and tablet, or the software for your computer. Find out more about this further down the page.
As standard, the system stores several weeks of footage. Would you like to keep recordings for longer? The storage capacity can easily be expanded. Once the storage is full, the oldest footage is automatically overwritten. This means you never have to free up space yourself.
No. You purchase the CCTV system with a one-off payment and instantly become the full owner. Because the footage is stored locally on the recorder, you do not need a subscription. Furthermore, the app and all features are included as standard. There are absolutely no hidden monthly fees.
Your recordings belong to you. Not to a tech giant.
Many modern systems continuously send your private footage to third parties for analysis and storage. Bascom is committed to absolute privacy. The cameras are equipped with AI chips that perform all analyses independently, and the recorder stores your footage locally. This ensures that everything remains securely within your own premises.
No, Bascom does not have access to your CCTV system. Your footage only leaves the recorder when you explicitly choose to do so.
Yes, you can. You can easily connect the system to your Dropbox, Google Drive, or your own (S)FTP server.
Yes, local storage provides the perfect foundation for this: after all, your footage does not end up with a third party. Furthermore, the system includes all the features required to comply with regulations. You decide who has access, how long recordings are kept, and you can obscure specific parts of the image using privacy masking.
Crystal-clear evidence you can actually use.
A camera is useless if strong backlighting makes a face unrecognisable or if the image turns into grainy noise in the dark. That is why Bascom's hardware guarantees clear footage, even under the most challenging conditions:
True Full HD resolution with smooth, stutter-free footage.
Light-sensitive image sensors with active noise reduction.
Backlight compensation to prevent under- and overexposure.
Powerful infrared night vision up to 30 metres in complete darkness.
Capture exactly what matters.
Because no two situations are the same, the zoom lens allows you to determine the ideal viewing angle yourself. Opt for a wide angle for a complete overview of a site, or zoom in on a specific detail such as a door, till, or driveway. This ensures you always capture what matters most to you in crystal-clear detail.
No. Many cheaper cameras use digital zoom, just like a smartphone. This simply enlarges the image, quickly resulting in blocky pixels. The PRO and PLUS cameras feature an optical zoom lens. This involves the glass lenses physically moving inside the camera to bring the image closer. You get a larger view of the detail without losing any sharpness whatsoever.
Absolutely. No two locations are the same. A standard camera has a fixed viewing angle, meaning you often miss a small section or end up unnecessarily filming a blank wall. A zoom lens allows you to tailor the image exactly to your situation. You eliminate redundant edges, ensuring the camera focuses its maximum sharpness purely on the area that is important to you.
Yes. A standard camera tries to get everything in the frame – from close up to far away – reasonably sharp. In practice, this is always a compromise. A zoom camera works more precisely: it allows you to focus the lens exactly at the distance you choose. Whether that is the gate at the front or the car at the back. As a result, the image at that one crucial focal point is always visibly crisper and sharper than with a standard camera.
Use the system your way.
Connect a monitor, or connect the recorder to the internet to watch live and review footage from anywhere in the world. The Bascom app and software connect directly to your own system. Fast and secure.
Locally via a monitor or TV
Connect your screen directly to the recorder using the included HDMI cable.
Worldwide via your smartphone
Easily watch live via the Bascom app for iOS (Apple) and Android.
Worldwide via your computer
Manage the system using the software for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Notifications that truly matter.
A security camera that sends a notification for every cat that walks by quickly loses its value. Thanks to advanced AI detection, false alarms are a thing of the past. Bascom cameras flawlessly distinguish between people, vehicles, and harmless movements. You only receive a push notification via the app when there is genuinely something going on.
Professional end result without hiring an installer.
No waiting times, no call-out charges, and no strangers on your premises. Over 95% of our customers install this system entirely themselves, even without prior experience with CCTV. And if you have a question during installation? Bascom's specialists are ready to guide you step by step.
Step 1: Mount the cameras.
Attach the cameras to the wall or ceiling. Because the lens can be rotated in all directions, you can adjust the image perfectly from any mounting angle. The connection cable can be hidden invisibly through the wall or routed through the side of the housing.
Step 2: Connect the cameras.
Supply power to the cameras. From this moment on, the system uses your building's existing electrical wiring as a data connection. The cameras transmit their footage directly over the power lines to the recorder.
Step 3: Connect the recorder.
As soon as you plug the recorder into the mains, it automatically detects the cameras. The system is immediately ready for use and starts recording straight away. If desired, connect a monitor to view the footage locally.
Step 4: Connect the app (optional).
Do you want to view the footage remotely? Simply connect the recorder to your internet. Scan the unique QR code with the Bascom app for a direct connection to your smartphone or tablet.
If you have a question while setting up the system or connecting the app, Bascom's specialists are available by phone every weekday to guide you step by step.
No anonymous call centre: You speak directly with certified Bascom technicians who know the system inside out.
No endless queues: Fast, expert help right when you need it, every weekday from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm.

Yes. The number of additional cameras you can connect depends on the available ports on your recorder. The included recorder is tailored to the size of the system by default:
1 to 4 cameras: recorder with 4 ports.
5 to 8 cameras: recorder with 8 ports.
9 to 16 cameras: recorder with 16 ports.
Are you planning a larger expansion in the future than the recorder can handle? It is always possible to equip the system with a larger recorder in advance. Please contact us to arrange this, or configure a custom system yourself.
Technical specifications
Dimensions
Height: 118 mm
Diagonal (bottom): 150 mm
Image quality
Image resolution: Full HD
Frame rate: 25 fps ?The frame rate, expressed in frames per second (fps), determines how smoothly video is displayed. A frequency of 25 fps is considered the industry standard for film and television, providing smooth motion without stuttering.
Type of image sensor: back-illuminated ?A back-illuminated image sensor has a unique structure, where the light-sensitive part is closer to the light source, improving the efficiency of light capture. This ensures that the camera performs better in low light conditions and only needs to switch to night mode later.
Image processing technologies:
High Dynamic Range (HDR) ?HDR technology significantly improves image quality by increasing the dynamic range between the brightest and darkest parts of the image. This results in images where details in very bright and very dark areas are preserved.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) ?AGC automatically amplifies the signal of the image sensor in low-light situations. This allows the camera to consistently deliver bright images, even in a dark environment.
3D Digital Noise Reduction (3D-DNR) ?Noise is the grainy structure that occurs when there is little light. 3D-DNR is an advanced algorithm that analyzes camera images and removes noise. This results in cleaner and sharper images in the dark.
Type lens: Motorized zoom lens with autofocus ?With a motorized zoom lens, you can control the zoom remotely. The autofocus ensures that the camera refocuses accurately after each zoom adjustment.
Zoom capacity: 5 times optical zoom ?Optical zoom uses the physical movement of lens elements to zoom, preserving image quality. This is in contrast to digital zoom, where sharpness is lost.
Field of view: 112° (wide angle) to 28° (zoomed in)
Color image: active from 0.002 lux ?This indicates the minimum amount of light needed for the camera to operate in color mode before switching to infrared night vision.
Infrared night vision: up to 30 meters ?This is the maximum distance the camera can capture clearly in complete absence of light.
