Authorised Milesight UK Distributor£40.40 ex VAT (£48.48 inc. VAT)
Diffuse reflective infrared sensor (940nm) for storefront passing-traffic counting
The Milesight VS361 is a diffuse-reflective infrared footfall counter with an adjustable detection distance of 1 to 9 m, set by a knob on the unit. It mounts at 0.7-1.2 m in storefront entrances and passageways and reports counts through a single NPN open-collector output to a DI device. The IP65 housing suits exposed outdoor entrances.

Specifications taken from the manufacturer datasheet.
Which version do I need?
The datasheet documents no wireless interface for the VS361: it is powered by 802.3af PoE or 12-60 V DC and reports over a wired NPN open-collector output, with the RJ45 port used for power supply only. The -868M suffix on this part number implies an 868 MHz radio variant that this datasheet does not document — confirm the ordering code with the supplier before quoting.
Typical applications for the VS361-868M
- Storefront window and doorway footfall counting
- Passageway and corridor pedestrian counting
- Outdoor store entrance counting in exposed positions
- Store entry conversion rate analysis with indoor people counters
- Foot traffic trend analysis for retail siting and staffing

VS361-868M — frequently asked questions
What is the VS361 detection range?
1 to 9 m unobstructed, adjusted with a knob on the unit. The specified installation height is 0.7 to 1.2 m, and detection uses a 940 nm infrared LED with diffuse reflection.
How does the VS361 send its counts?
Over a wired connection. The output is one NPN open-collector line on a 3.5 mm terminal block, with a maximum load of 1 mA @ 5 VDC, connected to a DI device. The RJ45 port is PoE PD for power supply only. The datasheet documents no wireless or LoRaWAN interface.
How is it powered?
By 802.3af PoE over the network cable, or 12-60 V DC on the 2-pin terminal block. Maximum power consumption is 0.9 W.
Can it be installed outdoors?
It is IP65 rated for dust and water protection, operates from -20°C to 50°C at 0-95% RH non-condensing, and has a polycarbonate (UL94 V2) enclosure with waterproof cable entries. Milesight states performance is unaffected by ambient temperature variations.
What does it pair with for retail analytics?
Milesight positions it alongside VS12X/VS13X indoor people counting sensors and UR32 DI routers to produce store entry conversion rate analysis, with direct DI device connection for counting.
