Network Cameras are essentially a combination of a digital camera and a
computer.
Each camera has a unique IP address and an Ethernet (RJ45) connection. They
connect directly to a computer network. A network could be as simple as one
camera connected to one computer or literally a 1000 cameras spread across the
world connected together using ISDN, DSL, WiFi, 3G, copper or fibre optics.
Superior Image Quality
IP Network Cameras offer much
higher resolution than conventional CCTV systems.
The latest generation IP cameras offer full mega pixel resolution (1280 x 960
lines), providing up to 12 times more detail than 95% of current CCTV systems.
Mega pixel resolution provides a much clearer image when it comes to
identifying items like vehicle number plates and facial recognition, making IP
cameras a superior choice for many security applications.
Much More Than Just a Camera
IP Network Cameras not
only provide vastly improved image quality, they incorporate a host of
intelligent features that set them apart from previous generation camera
technology, including:
- PoE (Power over Ethernet) wiring
- Event based storage - not using bandwidth when there is actually nothing to
send
- Exposure compensation configured individually for each camera for optimal
image quality
- Efficient video compression for very low network load
- Built-in microphones and loudspeakers for live bi-directional audio and
integration with VoIP Telephony
- No software installation required and low set-up costs
- Remote online access through any web browser Built in PIR movement
detectors
