Overview
VIVOTEK IP7161 is a high-end 2-megapixel network camera with true day and night functions, ideally suited for wide open spaces such as building entrances and airports, or applications requiring accurate identification, such as human faces in banks or vehicle license plates in parking lots� With advanced 2-megapixel (1600 x 1200) resolution, the IP7161 can not only deliver extremely clear and detailed images, but also capture much larger areas of scenes that CCTV cameras cannot� Consequently, users
can signicantly reduce deployment costs by using a megapixel camera instead of multiple VGA models.
To consistently maintain superior image quality during 24-hour surveillance, the IP7161 comes with a
built-in removable IR-cut lter for the acceptance of IR illumination and auto-iris lens for frequent light
changes� For safe and secure monitoring, the IP7161 also supports tamper detection so that security staff can be alerted immediately if the camera is blocked, redirected, defocused, or spray-painted� The exceptional time-shift streaming feature stores pre- and post-event images temporarily on a buffer memory in the camera, giving the user a view of events leading up to and after incidents�
Additionally, the IP7161 camera incorporates an adjustment ring to improve the lens compatibility for either C- or CS-mount lens, with a design that provides system integrators with more flexibility and simpler installation for different applications� In order to facilitate convenient on-board storage and data portability, the camera also provides an SD/SDHC card slot for temporary recording and data storage�
The IP7161 includes other advanced features such as simultaneous dual streams, 802�3af compliant PoE, two-way audio via SIP protocol and HTTPS encrypted data transmission�
Read Before Use
The use of surveillance devices may be prohibited by law in your country� The Network Camera is not
only a high-performance web-ready camera but can also be part of a exible surveillance system. It is
the user’s responsibility to ensure that the operation of such devices is legal before installing this unit for its intended use�
It is important to rst verify that all contents received are complete according to the Package Contents
listed below� Take note of the warnings in the Quick Installation Guide before the Network Camera is installed; then carefully read and follow the instructions in the Installation chapter to avoid damage due to faulty assembly and installation� This also ensures the product is used properly as intended�
The Network Camera is a network device and its use should be straightforward for those who have basic networking knowledge� It is designed for various applications including video sharing, general security/ surveillance, etc� The Configuration chapter suggests ways to best utilize the Network Camera and ensure proper operations� For creative and professional developers, the URL Commands of the Network Camera section serves as a helpful reference to customizing existing homepages or integrating with the current web server�

MPEG-4 Media Options
Select to stream video or audio data or both� This is enabled only when the video mode is set to MPEG-4�
MPEG-4 Protocol Options
Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of MPEG-4 streaming:
UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams� However, network
packets may be lost due to network burst trafc and images may be broken. Activate UDP connection
when occasions require time-sensitive responses and the video quality is less important� Note that each unicast client connecting to the server takes up additional bandwidth and the Network Camera allows up to ten simultaneous accesses�
UDP multicast: This protocol allows multicast-enabled routers to forward network packets to all clients requesting streaming media� This helps to reduce the network transmission load of the Network Camera while serving multiple clients at the same time� Note that to utilize this feature, the Network Camera must be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time� For more information, please refer to RTSP Streaming on page 46�
TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video quality� The downside of this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of the UDP protocol�
HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol without needing to open specic ports for streaming under some network environments� Users inside a firewall can utilize this protocol to allow streaming data through�
