Introduction1/15
The camera supports network oper ation. By simply connectin g a LAN cable to it , you can construc t the most advanced network monitoring system. From the Web browser (Internet Explorer) installed on your PC, you can operate the camera via the network in an easy-to-use manner.
In addition, it is a PoE product th at can be power ed through a LAN cable, so you can install it in loc ations where there is no power outlet nearby.
The camera has 4-megapixel CMOS sensor that produces clear images at ul tra- high resolution. The camera can deliver full HD H.264 vide o thr oughout the network. Connect ing a high- definition monitor to
your PC enables full high-definit ion video monitoring. The camera supports both H.2 64 vi deo and J PEG image compression formats, which y ou c an cho os e from
depending on the network environment.
The camera offers the focus assist function that support s focus ad jus tment at megapixel image resol ution, allowing you to fine-tune the focus in optimal conditions in an easy manner.
The camera's motion sensor function can work in conjunction with any external alarm device, fac ilitating the construction of a high-le vel security syste m.
Installing associated software applica tio ns on your PC further extends the capabilities of your surveillance system.
