1.3 Features and Benefits

Thank you for purchasing the SkyIPCam1620 PoE MPEG4 3GPP Network Camera, a standalone system that can be connected directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network.

With MPEG4 image compression technology, you can record streaming video that utilizes high quality images to your hard drive, enable motion detection and set up automated e-mail alerts for security. The built-in microphone and audio ports provide you with the extensive 2-Way Audio function, allowing you to “listen” and “talk” to the area monitored by the camera. The camera can be managed remotely, so that you can use a web browser to access and control it from any desktop/notebook computer or 3G smart phone over the Intranet or Internet.

The simple installation procedures and web-based interface allow you to integrate it into your network easily. The camera features Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology; by connecting it to a PoE switch with a RJ45 network cable, it allows you to install and use the camera in an environment where power supply is not available. With comprehensive applications supported, the camera is your best solution for demanding surveillance and remote monitoring applications.

￿MPEG4/MJPEG Dual-codec Supported

The camera provides you with excellent images by the MPEG4/ MJPEG dual-codec selectable technology, allowing you to adjust image size and quality, and bit rate according to the networking environment.

￿Flexible 2-Way Audio Capability

The camera allows you to connect an external microphone to receive on-the-spot audio via the Internet, allowing you to monitor the on-site voice. In addition, you can connect an external active speaker to the camera to speak through the camera (supporting mono audio only).

￿Supports RTSP

The camera supports RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol), which is a technology that allows you to view streaming media via the network. You can view the real-time video with the Quick Time player or RealPlayer. To view the real-time streaming image on your computer, open the RTSP supported player and enter the link:

rtsp://(IP address of the camera)/mpeg4.

￿I/O Connectors and RS-485 Provided

The I/O connectors (IN/OUT) of the camera provide the physical interface to send and receive digital signals to a variety of external alarm devices (such as motion detection, event triggering, alarm notification, and a variety of external control functions). The pins TX+ & TX- of the I/O connectors are used for RS-485 data transmission, which allow you to connect a special featured device (such as an external camera stand with Pan/Tilt function), configure the settings and control the device from the GPIO Trigger window of Web Configuration.

￿Remote Control Supported

By using a standard Web browser or the complimentary UltraView software application, the administrator can easily change the configuration of the camera via Intranet or Internet. In addition, the camera can be upgraded remotely when a new firmware is available. The users are also allowed to monitor the image and take snapshots via the network.

￿Multiple Profiles Supported

The camera supports multiple profiles simultaneously, so that you can separately set up different image settings (such as image quality and frame rate) for the three video types of the camera: MPEG4, MJPEG, and 3GPP.

￿Multiple Platforms Supported

The camera supports multiple network protocols, including TCP/IP, SMTP e-mail, HTTP, and other Internet related protocols. Therefore, you can use the camera in a mixed operating system environment, such as Windows 7 / Vista / XP.
