The LevelOne WCS-6020 / WCS-6050 is a quality yet cost-effective surveillance solution for the home and office. It is designed for easy and flexible installation, provides a choice of either a 150Mbps wireless or wired connection and a WPS (Wi-Fi protected setup) button to secure the wireless connection with just the push of a button, and the motorized Pan and Tilt provides a viewing angle of ±355° pan and ±135° tilt. Equipped with a 2/5-Megap ixel sensor and built-in IR cut filter/IR illuminator LEDs, the camera provides high resolution quality and sharp sensitivity – ideal for security applications both day and night.
