BB-HCM371

IPv4/v6 Audio 2-way Type

Outdoor/ Wireless Network Camera

High speed wireless LAN

IEEE 802.11g has 2 modes: 1. the 802.11g only mode, and 2. the 802.11g and 802.11b simultaneous mode. Also, the wireless LAN function can be suspended.

Splash Resistant body for indoor and outdoor use

Your Panasonic Network Camera has a splash resistant body. The splash resistant body allows the camera to be used indoors or outdoors.

Two-Way Voice Communications

Use of the built-in microphone and a separately purchased amp-equipped speaker enables two-way voice communication (transceiver system)*2 between the network camera and a PC used to monitor the camera image. Voice transmission and reception can be switched easily from the PC used to monitor the image. For example, it allows people in a head office to provide instructions or messages to people on a sales floor while observing the image on their PC.

Enhanced Image Expression

CCD Sensor

The BB-HCM371 features a CCD for sharp image expression.

Image Refreshing Speed

The image refreshing speed (maximum) has been increased to 30 images/sec* for smoother displays of moving images.

*Image Resolution: 320 x 240 or 160 x 120.

Color Night View Mode

The Color Night View Mode brings the minimum light requirement from 3 lx down to 0.2 lx, letting you capture images even in dimly lit places.

Multi-Camera Setup Supported

Simultaneous monitoring of images using up to four network cameras. Images from up to four camera units can be assigned as a group, and the monitor display can be switched to any of three image groups. This enables simultaneous display of the images from up to 12 camera units, with no audio.

Alarm-Controlled and Timer-Controlled Image Transfer Functions

The Alarm-Controlled Image Transfer function uses a commercially available external Sensor or switch and sends the image only when there is an action such as turning on the light or opening the door. The TimerControlled Image Transfer function automatically transmits images according to the set time zone and the day of the week. These convenient functions eliminate your need to constantly check the image.

*When e-mail function is used to transfer images or messages, e-mail

transmission may not be possible in some cases due to the mail server authentication system (SMTP authentication, etc.) used by your Internet service provider.

*The image transfer functions can be used only with a PC. With a cell

phone, only the e-mail transmission function can be used.

Supporting Viewnetcam.com service

Viewnetcam.com service allows you to access the camera over the Internet with your favorite domain name (e.g. bob.viewnetcam.com) instead of a global IP address. For more information on Viewnetcam.com service, Please access www.viewnetcam.com for more information.

External Output Control

This provides ON/OFF operation of an externally connected device. For example, it can be used to turn on a light when the surrounding area becomes dark or to turn on a buzzer in case of an emergency.

IPv6-Ready

Our new network cameras allow the use of a virtually unlimited number of IP addresses*3 by supporting IPv6, a next-generation protocol. The IPv4/IPv6 dualstack feature enables you to use IPv4 at the present and switch over to IPv6 in the future.

*1 This logo mark is issued by the IPv6 Ready Logo Program Committee, an IPv6 promotion group established mainly by the IPv6 Forum.

This function can be used with a PC only. It cannot be used with a cell phone. To hear the voice transmitted from the PC, a commercially available

speaker with a built-in amp must be installed. The transceiver system does not allow simultaneous transmission and reception of voices.

The BB-HCM371 may require a version upgrade to operate in the IPv6 environment.

An IP address is a unique number assigned to each user so that the user can be identified on the Internet.

IPsec is an IP security protocol for data encryption standardized by IETF, an international community devoted to the standardization of Internet

specifications.

IPsec*4 Supported

IPsec is a technology used to encrypt data packets in order to prevent eavesdropping by third parties. When combined with a conventional authentication function based on user names and passwords, IPsec offers enhanced security.

*1 This varies depending on the subject, image quality, network environment, PC performance, etc.

The image update speed may decrease when favor-motion mode is set, when images are recorded onto an SD Memory Card, and when IPsec is

used, as well as due to the network environment and PC performance.
