1. Introduction

PLANET has announced a 2 Mega-Pixel PoE Cube IP camera, ICA-HM101, for meeting the feedback from worldwide market. The ICA-HM101 with built-in high performance 2 Mega-Pixel CMOS sensor delivers high quality image at maximum UXGA (1600x1200) resolutions. Integrated the next generation video compression technology – H.264, the ICA-HM101 can compress the video size to smaller one for users to transfer the Mega-Pixel image on Internet easily. Multi-profile stands for video stream simultaneously. The ICA-HM 101 ca n generate H.2 64 / MPEG-4 and M-JPEG streaming to different users at the same time. It allows up to 20 users to access the ICA-HM101 simultaneously. With this state-of-the-art design, the ICA-HM101 is considerable to fit in various network environments.
The ICA-HM101 features 0.5 lux illumination. 12 white LEDs built around the lens bring the clearest vision at night. The ICA-HM101 offers color pictures both in the day and night with built-in CMOS sensor supporting up to 10 meters. It also uses new High-Light LED to provide greater performance in the dark and longer life of LED.
Supports Store-to-NAS function, the ICA-HM101 can work alone and save the video file to a NAS directly, which can save the PC resource and keep monitoring the environment with motion detection at 7/24. The ICA-HM101’s PIR motion sensor detects motion, images and voices are transmitted. The ICA-HM101 takes surveillance using 2-Way audio. The administrator can speak to anyone at ICA-HM101 remote site with a speaker connected. Compliant with IEEE 802.3af PoE interface, the ICA-HM101 can be located in places where there are no power outlets.
The ICA-HM101 can be managed by PLANET Cam Viewer Three, the professional management software for multi-camera video surveillance application, to provide monitoring, recording and event management functions. The Cam Viewer Plus enables you to setup a comprehensive and effective surveillance system quickly and easily. With the ICA-HM101 managed by the Cam Viewer Three, it provides an enhanced professional security environment to protect your property and life.
