Wired PTZ camera
Easily connect with just one cable per camera.
Thanks to Power over Ethernet (PoE), you can connect each camera using a single UTP cable. This cable transmits the footage to the recorder and directly supplies the camera with power. As a result, a separate power socket near the camera is no longer required.
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.
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 4K 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 50 metres in complete darkness.
Fully controllable: 360° rotation and 25x zoom
This high-performance camera features a fast, rugged PTZ mechanism. You can rotate it a full 360 degrees and tilt it over 90 degrees, ensuring no area is left unmonitored. Thanks to its powerful zoom lens, even distant details remain clearly visible – giving you an impressive range of view.
If you plan to actively control your cameras, a PTZ model is an excellent option. However, if you're considering a PTZ camera simply to monitor multiple angles but don't intend to steer it regularly, you're often better off installing two or more fixed cameras. This ensures all angles are continuously recorded, so you don’t risk missing anything.
There are several ways to control a PTZ camera: directly via the recorder using a monitor and mouse, from a laptop or desktop computer, or through the Bascom smartphone app.
Thanks to its optical zoom, image quality remains consistently sharp when zooming in or out. Unlike digital zoom – which enlarges the image electronically and often results in pixelation – optical zoom uses the physical movement of the lens to bring objects closer. This means even at full zoom, the image stays clear, sharp, and highly detailed.
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
Secure the cameras to a wall or ceiling. You can then take your time to position them precisely. The lens can be rotated in any direction, so even if the camera is mounted at an angle or upside down, the image will still appear level. You can route the cable out the side or straight through the wall behind the camera, leaving nothing visible.
Step 2. Connect the cameras to the recorder
Thanks to Power over Ethernet (PoE), each camera requires only a single cable to connect to the recorder. This cable transmits video from the camera while simultaneously delivering power from the recorder – no power socket is needed near the camera. The recorder starts recording immediately and no configuration is required. If you like, you can now connect a monitor or TV to the recorder and control it using a mouse.
Step 3. Connect the recorder to the internet (optional)
Want to view your footage remotely via smartphone or computer? Simply connect the recorder to your internet – either directly using the included Ethernet cable to your modem or router, or wirelessly using our Wi-Fi antenna. Once connected, download the Bascom app, scan the QR code on the recorder, and you're ready to view live images.

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 (without bracket)
Height: 270 mm
Diameter: 160 mm
Image quality
Image resolution: Ultra HD (4K)
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 the 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 the camera images and removes noise. This results in cleaner and sharper images in the dark.
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 100 meters ?This is the maximum distance the camera can capture clearly in complete absence of light.
PTZ mechanism
25x optical zoom (horizontal field of view from 56.9° to 2.9°) ?Optical zoom uses the physical movement of lens elements to zoom, maintaining image quality. This is in contrast to digital zoom, where sharpness is lost.
360° rotation angle
-10° to 90° tilt range
255 presets (user-defined camera positions to easily and quickly switch between)
1 patrol scan (a function where the camera automatically switches between different presets according to a sequence set by you)
4 pattern scans (a function where the camera automatically follows a pre-programmed motion pattern)
Autotracking (a feature that allows the camera to automatically track moving objects, such as people and vehicles)
3D positioning (allows users to quickly and accurately aim the camera by simply clicking on a specific point in the video image)
