Product Overview

The Cisco® WVC200 Wireless-G PTZ Internet Video Camera (Figure 1) sends live video through
the Internet to a web browser anywhere in the world.

The advanced MPEG-4 video compression produces a high-quality, high-frame-rate (up to 640 by

480) video stream. MPEG-4 encoding facilitates good video quality in varying-bandwidth
environments. The Cisco WVC200 also supports MJPEG compression for video, providing good
video quality at high-bandwidth rates. Snapshots of the image (in JPEG format) can be taken and
saved. Snapshots can also be scheduled and sent to an FTP server.

Data Sheet

If you want the video to be visible from a remote location or from the Internet, you can open an
appropriate port on the router and create password-protected accounts to manage access to the
camera, or provide open access to everyone. Support for Dynamic DNS (DDNS) lets you access
your camera using an easy-to-remember name, even while using a dynamic IP address. The pan,
tilt, and digital zoom functions allow you to remotely control the camera movement and focus,
giving you maximum remote flexibility. Up to 10 simultaneous users can access the camera at any
time. Software is included for monitoring multiple cameras and recording to your hard drive, with
advanced search by time and date. Recording can be set up to start when motion is detected or
can be started manually or according to a schedule. Playback is available on Windows Media
Player, with no need for a proprietary player.

You can also enable security mode, which tells the camera to send a message with a short
attached video to up to three email addresses whenever it detects motion in its field of view. You
can then log in to the live video stream if the situation warrants.
