From Standard Surveillance to Intelligent Security: Introducing the R360S, R540, and R545 Camera Series


Security teams and facilities managers have evolved beyond basic surveillance needs. Today's complex environments demand sophisticated solutions that deliver comprehensive coverage, intelligent automation, and actionable insights. Traditional camera systems that offer limited perspectives, manual configuration challenges, and reactive monitoring simply cannot meet the demands of modern security operations. Organizations need technology that anticipates threats, eliminates coverage gaps, and seamlessly integrates with existing infrastructure, while providing the intelligence necessary for proactive security management.
Elevating Security Intelligence with Advanced Camera Technology
To deliver unparalleled security coverage and intelligent automation, we are excited to introduce three camera solutions designed to transform how organizations approach security monitoring – the R360S, R540, and R545. These advanced systems represent a significant leap forward in security technology, combining cutting-edge hardware with AI-powered intelligence to create comprehensive security solutions.
R360S: Complete Situational Awareness with 360° Intelligence
The R360S revolutionizes space monitoring by delivering comprehensive 360° coverage through one powerful 12.5MP camera, eliminating blind spots that compromise traditional security deployments.
With its stereographic lens technology, the R360S provides crystal clear visibility across every angle of your space. The immersive, real-time de-warping feature with custom tile views ensures security teams maintain full situational awareness without the disorientation typically associated with 360° footage. Enhanced connectivity options include dual microSD slots for local storage and IoT sensor integration, creating a comprehensive security ecosystem that adapts to your operational needs.
R540: Intelligent Perimeter Protection for Expansive Spaces
The R540 combines high-performance surveillance with intelligent simplicity, featuring a 4K Ultra HD sensor paired with a motorized varifocal lens for optimal coverage customization.
Specifically engineered for perimeter protection in large-scale environments, the R540 leverages AI-powered threat detection to identify potential security concerns before they escalate. Zero-touch provisioning eliminates complex setup procedures, while full integration with the Rhombus platform ensures seamless deployment across your security infrastructure. Dual microSD slots provide reliable local storage options, ensuring continuous operation, even during network disruptions.
R545: Precision Monitoring for Long-Range Security Applications
The R545 delivers exceptional precision at a distance, combining a 4K Ultra HD sensor with 2.5x zoom capabilities to capture the finest details in long-range monitoring scenarios.
Powered by advanced telephoto lens technology, the R545 maintains crystal clear visibility across extended distances, making it ideal for perimeter security and license plate recognition applications. Real-time AI detections and alerts enable proactive security responses, while IoT sensor connectivity and dual microSD slots ensure comprehensive data collection and storage. This intelligent system transforms distant monitoring from reactive observation to proactive security intelligence.
Real-World Applications Across Industries
The versatility of these advanced camera systems makes them invaluable across diverse security environments. Here's how organizations are transforming their security operations:
Educational Institutions: Comprehensive Campus Security
A large university campus implements the R360S in common areas and lobbies to eliminate blind spots while using R545 cameras for parking lot monitoring and license plate recognition. This combination provides complete coverage from close-range social spaces to long-distance perimeter security, creating a unified security ecosystem that protects students and faculty.
Retailers: Multi-Level Security Intelligence
A shopping center leverages the R360S for comprehensive coverage in central areas, eliminating the need for multiple traditional cameras while reducing installation complexity. R540 cameras secure parking areas and entrances, while R545 units monitor distant parking zones and provide license plate recognition for enhanced security intelligence.
