Wireless LAN Connection Available

The IP207W is designed to not only work with your existing wired network but also with standard
wireless devices, allowing the flexibility to operate the IP207W wirelessly. The IP207W utilizes SSID filtering,
powerful 64/128 bit WEP and new security standard WPA encryption to protect you from illegal intrusion.

High-Speed MPEG4

The IP207W features MPEG 4 compression which compresses the video to make transmission -faster and

more efficient. The MPEG 4 image can be transmitted with a bit rate of 2048kbps at 30 frames per second.

Infrared Night Vision

The camera utilizes 30 infrared LED to provide high light in darks environment. When the environment is
dark, the LED will be opened automatically due to a photosensitive component, and the moving images will
be changed to Black and White. Users can monitor clearly the things within 12 meters distance. Users also
can select open or close the infrared LED manually, and select whether change the images to black and
white or color automatically.

Multi-Client Access

The IP207W allows up to 16 users to view the MPEG 4 image simultaneously. Please note that it is possible
that as the number of simultaneously connected users to IP207W increases, the overall motion performance
will decrease.
