Advantages

The IK10-rated metal housing protects the camera from physical tampering. 5X optical zoom preserves image clarity when magnifying distant subjects. PoE (Power over Ethernet) allows a single cable to carry power and data, simplifying and lowering installation costs. Color night vision produces clear, color-rich images in low light. Built-in smart detection distinguishes person, vehicle and motion events and can trigger alerts. Configurable siren and spotlights provide a dual warning method to deter intruders. The camera supports up to 256GB microSD, plus NVR and FTP storage options for flexible recording management.
