1.3 Features and Benefits

MPEG4/MJPEG Dual-codec Supported
The camera provides you with excellent images by the MPEG4/MJPEG dual-codec selectable technology, allowing you to adjust image size and quality, and bit rate according to the networking environment.
2-way Audio Capability
The built-in microphone of the camera provides on-the-spot audio via the Internet, allowing you to monitor the on-site voice. In addition, you can connect an external speaker to the camera to speak through the camera; the camera is embedded with an echo cancellation processor to provide a better sound quality.
Day & Night Surveillance Supported
The six Infrared LEDs around the standard lens assembly enable the camera to capture crystal clear images in the dark environment or at night. When the Light Sensor detects the environmental light level becomes low, the camera captures the images in black & white mode using these infrared LEDs.
Supports Multiple Profiles
The camera supports multiple profiles simultaneously, so that you can separately set up different image settings (such as image quality and frame rate) for the three video types of the camera: MPEG4, MJPEG, and 3GPP.
Supports RTSP
The camera supports RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol), which is a technology that allows you to view streaming media via the network. You can view the real-time video with the Quick Time player or RealPlayer. To view the real-time streaming image on your computer, open the Web browser and enter the RTSP link:
