Dual Connectivity (PoE Wired / WIFI)
Flexibility in connectivity is a key advantage of this camera. It can be hardwired using the built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE) port for the most stable connection, or it can operate wirelessly via standard 2.4 Ghz 802.11b/g/n WiFi networks for ease of installation and placement. This dual connectivity ensures users are not restricted by infrastructure limitations. Once you have the camera configured to connect to a wireless network, you can plug the camera into a power source anywhere the WIFI signal is available and it will automatically connect.
IR Night Vision
The camera excels in low-light conditions and zero light conditions, automatically switching to infrared (IR) night vision when ambient light levels drop. This ensures continuous surveillance capability. The IR night vision is effective up to 10 meters (approximately 30 feet), making it suitable for various indoor environments. The above snapshot was captured in the CCTV Camera Pros tech support room with all of the lights off. Please note that there is ambient light from the TV monitors in the room. This is a low light surveillance example. The Viewtron IP-C4 does also work great in zero light.
Integrated Audio Surveillance & 2-Way Audio Speaker
The IP-C4 features a built-in audio surveillance microphone and speaker, supporting two-way audio communication. This feature allows users to interact with individuals or pets remotely via the mobile app for iPhone and Android. Whether providing instructions, checking on pets, or issuing warnings, the two-way audio adds significant value to surveillance activities.
Advanced Alarm Sound and Voice Warnings
The camera includes built-in passive infrared (PIR) motion detectors, which can trigger predefined audio alarms or custom voice recordings when motion is detected. These alarms can be manually triggered via the mobile app or set to activate automatically, enhancing security through proactive measures.
ONVIF Compliance and Compatibility
The Viewtron IP-C4 is ONVIF compliant, ensuring broad compatibility with third-party Network Video Recorders (NVRs). While the camera is optimized for use with Viewtron NVRs, this compliance provides flexibility for users to integrate it with existing surveillance systems.
Indoor Use with Versatile Mounting Options
Designed for indoor use, the camera can be wall-mounted or placed on a desktop, making it adaptable to different surveillance needs. This versatility allows it to serve various roles, such as monitoring pets, elderly family members, or acting as a temporary nanny cam.
Standalone Operation with Local Storage
The IP-C4 features a built-in microSD slot supporting up to 256GB, allowing for standalone operation without the need for an NVR. This local storage capability is ideal for users who prefer not to use an NVR. This is a good option for single camera use. For systems with multiple security cameras, CCTV Camera Pros highly recommends a Viewtron IP camera NVR.
