Best For: Building corners, entrances, corridors and loading areas where two separate views need coverage from a single camera position.
Vivotek MA9311-EHTV Dual-Directional Panoramic AI Camera
The Vivotek MA9311-EHTV combines two adjustable 5MP camera views in one outdoor housing. Its motorised lenses let an installer frame two areas independently, making it a practical option for watching an entrance and approach, or two directions along a passage.
Key Features
-
5MP per channel at up to 30fps for detailed footage from both views.
-
Two 2.8–12mm motorised P-iris lenses with remote focus.
-
Smart Motion Detection and Smart VCA for configurable alerts.
-
20m infrared illumination for night monitoring.
-
Built-in microphone to add audio context.
-
IP66/IP67, IK10 and NEMA 4X protection for outdoor installation.
Frame Two Areas from One Installation Point
Each lens can be positioned independently during installation, then zoomed and focused remotely. This flexibility helps you choose the coverage needed on each side of a doorway, corner or access route.
Plan the camera position around both views. The two channels provide separate 5MP images, rather than one stitched 10MP image. Confirm support for both streams and any recording or software licence requirements when selecting your recorder.
Use AI Alerts to Focus on Relevant Activity
People and vehicle detection helps focus monitoring on relevant movement. Smart VCA supports rules such as line crossing, intrusion and loitering, while Vision Object Analytics provides object attributes for supported management software.
Attribute search depends on compatible software and its licensing. Running, parking violation and restricted zone analytics require the appropriate Smart VCA Group 3 licence. Face detection identifies a face in the scene; it does not identify a person.
Night Coverage, Audio and PoE+
Smart IR supports night imaging up to 20 metres, with WDR Pro helping balance high-contrast scenes. Infrared illumination distance does not guarantee identification at that distance; lens settings, placement and lighting still matter.
The built-in microphone records audio. Two-way audio, external microphone/line connections and alarm I/O require the optional AO-015 cable and suitable external equipment. Supply the camera from a compatible 802.3at PoE+ port or injector with sufficient power available.
