PREFACE
Thank you for purchasing the TV-IP322P SecurView™ Outdoor PoE Megapixel Day/Night Internet Camera, a standalone system that can be connected directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network.
The camera is equipped with a 2-megapixel CMOS sensor, allowing you to capture high quality image with the resolution of up to 1280 x 1024. Additionally, the camera features the IR (Infrared) LEDs and ICR function (IR Cut Filter). The ICR function enables the camera to capture the clear image under sunlight and increase the amount of light for IR LEDs in the dark by changing the filter automatically. The camera also provides the audio and microphone ports, allowing you to transfer sound from/to the camera.
Compared to the conventional PC Camera, this camera features a built-in CPU and web-based solutions that can provide a cost-effective solution to transmit the real-time high-quality video images and sounds synchronously for monitoring. The camera can be managed remotely, so that you can use a web browser to access and control it from any desktop/notebook computer over the Intranet or Internet.
Compliant with IEEE802.3af PoE (Power over Ethernet) standard, the camera provides you with more flexibility of camera installation according to your application. The camera can be powered by the Ethernet, so that you can place the camera anywhere without a power outlet supported.
The trouble-free installation procedures and web-based interface allow you to integrate it into your network fast and easy. With comprehensive applications supported, the Internet camera is your best solution for remote monitor, high quality, and high performance video images.
