Extend the IR Range of your UniFi Video Camera with Ubiquiti’s latest detachable LED Ring!

Improve your night vision on your Unifi G3-Bullet video camera with up to 25m by simply attaching Ubiquiti’s latest LED Ring (UVC-G3-LED) to the front of the camera! 

How does it work?

The LED Ring houses six high-intensity infrared LEDs for extended night vision range. It is powered and controlled by the UVC-G3 bullet camera via a connector.

 

WARNING: Do not connect any device to the accessory port on the UVC-G3. Damage to the device may occur. The accessory port is designed for use with the UVC-G3-LED accessory only.

How easy is it to deploy?

There are two phases to the installation process: attaching it to the camera and configuring it via the Ubiquiti GUI interface. 

Hardware Installation

  1. Pull out the sun visor and remove it. Then remove the accessory port cover located on the bottom of the UVC-G3.
  2. Orient the UVC-G3-LED with the Accessory Connector at the bottom. Place the LED Ring over the front of the UVC-G3 in place of the sun visor. Insert the LED Ring until it locks into place.
  3. Insert the Accessory Connector into the accessory port until it locks into place.
  4. Tighten the two screws located at the bottom of the LED Ring to secure it.

 

Important: Do not over-tighten the two screws. Excessive torque may damage the LED Ring and/or the UVC-G3.
