Synology BC510 AI 5MP PoE Bullet IP Security Camera

Wide-Angle AI Surveillance for Indoor and Outdoor Areas The Synology BC510 is a 5 MP PoE bullet IP security camera designed for reliable indoor and outdoor video surveillance. It combines detailed 2880 × 1620 HDR video, a wide 110° horizontal field of view, camera-based AI analytics and infrared night vision reaching up to 30 m. Its weather-resistant bullet design is suitable for monitoring entrances, building perimeters, offices, retail premises, warehouses and other exposed locations. The BC510 supports Synology Surveillance Station, Surveillance365, BeeStation Plus and compatible third-party ONVIF systems. Highlights Detailed Wide-Angle Monitoring 5 MP video at up to 2880 × 1620 and 30 FPS Wide 110° horizontal field of view Multi-exposure HDR for high-contrast scenes F1.8 aperture for improved low-light performance Camera-Based AI Analytics People and vehicle detection Intrusion, loitering and crowd detection People and vehicle counting Supported search and tracking functions for faster investigation Reliable Outdoor Protection IP66 and IP67 weather resistance Infrared night vision up to 30 m Suitable for indoor and outdoor installation NDAA and TAA compliance Flexible System Deployment IEEE 802.3af PoE connectivity Alternative 12 V DC power support MicroSD edge recording Synology and third-party ONVIF integration Key Features Detailed 5 MP HDR Video The BC510 records at up to 2880 × 1620 resolution and 30 frames per second. Its 110° horizontal field of view helps monitor larger areas, while multi-exposure HDR retains useful detail in scenes containing bright highlights and dark shadows. Camera-Based AI Detection Built-in AI distinguishes people and vehicles from other movement and supports analytics such as intrusion, loitering, crowd detection and counting. These functions help security teams focus on relevant activity and reduce unnecessary event reviews. Available analytics, Instant Search and Auto Tracking capabilities depend on the selected management platform. Infrared Monitoring up to 30 Metres High-power infrared illumination provides night vision at distances of up to 30 m. The automatically removable infrared-cut filter allows the camera to switch between colour daytime monitoring and infrared night surveillance. Simplified PoE Installation IEEE 802.3af PoE carries network connectivity and electrical power through one Ethernet cable, simplifying installation and reducing separate power cabling. The camera can alternatively use a compatible 12 V DC, 1 A power adapter. A PoE switch, PoE injector and DC power adapter are not included and must be purchased separately. IP66 and IP67 Weather Resistance The BC510’s bullet enclosure carries IP66 and IP67 ratings for protection against dust and water exposure. This supports installation in sheltered or exposed indoor and outdoor monitoring areas within the camera’s supported operating conditions. The BC510 does not have an IK vandal-resistance rating. The camera should therefore be positioned carefully where physical impact or deliberate interference is a concern. Flexible Surveillance Management The camera integrates with Surveillance Station on compatible Synology NAS and DVA systems for local video management and recording. A Surveillance Device Licence is required, so buyers should confirm that sufficient licences are available. It also supports Synology Surveillance365 for cloud-native management, BeeStation Plus through the BeeCamera application and compatible third-party NVR or VMS platforms through ONVIF. Edge Recording and Audio Capture A built-in microSD card slot supports edge recording and failover storage when the network connection is interrupted. The microSD card is not included. The integrated microphone records audio with the video feed. The BC510 does not include a speaker and therefore does not provide two-way audio. Summary The Synology BC510 is a weather-resistant 5 MP AI PoE bullet IP camera combining wide-angle HDR video, intelligent detection and 30 m night vision. It is suitable for professional indoor and outdoor surveillance using Synology’s local or cloud platforms or a compatible ONVIF system.
