Security Surveillance Lens Portfolio
Sunex Surveillance Lenses are designed to meet the unique requirements of Surveillance applications. Whether your requirement is for a plastic lens for high-volume production, or a multi-megapixel, environmentally stable glass/metal lens, Sunex has the solution. Lenses are available from narrow “Telephoto” field of view to Wide-Angle and Fisheye lenses with up to 190º FOV.
Sunex specializes in wide field of view and high-resolution imaging and with their compact size, these lenses are much more discrete than typical surveillance lenses on the market.

Key Technologies
Dual-Bandpass Filters
For many camera applications, Infrared (IR) is an unwanted component of the light spectrum and is often blocked using IR cut-off filters that block the transmission of the infrared while passing the visible (VIS). The Sunex IRC4x family of dual-bandpass filters on the other hand are specifically designed to allow the visible and a narrow IR-band to pass through simultaneously. Typical configurations are VIS+850 and VIS+940. Sunex also offers single-band IR filters, and custom filter designs.
We also offer IR cut-off filter exchanger with an integrated lens mount that allows true day/night (TDN) operation. For daytime operation, an absorptive color filter provides true color rendition. At night, an AR-coated window allows maximum light transmission.
All graphs are for illustration purposes only. The individual lens performance can be different.
Supporting Services
Sensor Module Capabilities
Depending on the need and expertise of our customers, we provide design and manufacturing services for a complete sensor module. We strive to find the best solution for your needs, from designing the schematic, creating the PCB layout, and sourcing all components to building according to your PCB design and parts consignment. At Sunex, we have the in-house expertise and capabilities for lens and sensor board design, manufacturing, and testing to deliver a fully tested sensor module.
Active Alignment Capabilities
To achieve the highest system performance when pairing a high-quality lens with a high-resolution sensor, we recommend that our customers consider an active alignment process. Applying a fully automated 6-axis active alignment in mass production increases yield, shortens cycle times, improves system performance, and lowers part-to-part variance.

Basic Thread Considerations for Lens/Holder Pairing on Board-Mount Cameras
The seemingly humble thread is much more complex than it appears; at least as it applies to lenses.

Choosing the Right Sourcing Strategy for M12 Lenses
Selecting the right lens sourcing strategy has direct, long-term consequences on image performance, supply continuity, and program economics. The market currently offers three distinct channels: internet platforms, catalog-style intermediaries, and direct OEM partnerships.

Lens Customization- What You Need to Know
One of the questions we frequently get at Sunex is some variation of, “Can I modify a standard lens, and what does this entail?”
