The camera has 2-megapixel CMOS sensor that pr oduces clear images at ultra- high resolution.
Using multi-stream video trans mission, it can simultaneously deliver up to four video/ima

g

e streams. Because
it allows video/image compression format, resolution, and other image conditions to be set as desired for
each stream, you can choose the optimal v ideo/image for your applic ation.

Installation of the HDMI option board (sold separate ly ) on the camera enables you to monitor surveillance
video in full hi-vision.

You can freely control camera lens orien tat ion with your PC mouse.
With a 10× built-in optical zoom lens, the camera offers a zoom magnification of up to 160× in conjunction

with the electronic zoom function.
By installing an SD memory card or external hard disk (sold separately), surveillance video can be recorded

on the camera side.
The camera's motion sensor fu nc tion can work in conjunction with any external ala rm dev ic e, facilitating the

construction of a high-lev el security syste m.

Installing associated software applications on your PC further extends the capabilities of your surveillance system.
