The VDO-5300W Internet Camera is an advanced security system that allows you to watch and listen remotely. This full-featured camera connects to an Ethernet network in a building or campus, to broadband Internet as well as to a wireless local area network (WLAN).

It provides you with high-quality video and audio. Equipped with built-in Web server, a micro-phone for listening, and a motor for rotation, this camera can be panned and tilted remotely, accessed and controlled from any PC/Notebook over a local network or through the Internet. With motion detected image recording, time-saving trigger event playback, alert message and powerful software for multi-camera monitoring and management, this camera provides a comprehensive system for convenient surveillance from both a local site or remotely from anywhere in the world.

This Internet Camera comes with a built-in CPU and Web server, providing a low-cost solution for security needs. Its integrated Web server eliminates the need to connect the camera to a computer. Once installed, you use the built-in IP address to gain access to the camera, view live streaming video, and make changes to camera settings.

You can install your camera at home then view the images from anywhere in the world on a computer running Internet Explorer. Directly connected to the Internet without going through any computer, this camera is simple to install and easily integrates with your network environment.

The camera is mounted on a motor for rotation to capture images from different angles. From a remote site, you can manually rotate the camera's horizontal and vertical movements. The camera movement angles can also be set up for automatic panning and tilting in rotation according a pre-set timing.

Surveillance software is included to let you view up to 16 cameras on a single computer screen at one central location. Images can be recorded to your computer's hard drive manually or according to a pre-set schedule. The camera can be connected to external alarms and sensors, and you can set up automated email alerts for sending through the Internet to alarm you instantly of all unusual happenings.

Instead of recording 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, images can also be recorded only when motions are detected. This saves disk space and eliminates the time wasted to view unnecessary images. Images can be directly archived straight to your computer hard drive or to a Network Attached Storage. Playback consumes little time with triggered event browsing and fast database searching.

The camera uses MPEG-4 Short Header Mode to stream live video at up to 30 frames per second for real-time viewing. A built-in microphone allows you to listen while watching live images. The camera can also be attached to an external, more powerful microphone and a TV in a private room, where you can monitor streaming images and listen to surveillance sound.

The camera provides a 10/100BASE-TX port for connection to an Ethernet network without going through any PC for cost-effective surveillance in and around a building. This Ethernet port can also be used to connect to a broadband Internet via a home gateway router. It also provides an 802.11b+ wireless LAN interface, allowing you to do surveillance wirelessly in and around a building from a PC without connection to a wired network.
