1.1 Features and Benefits
Simple To Use
The SkyIPCam310 is a standalone system with built-in CPU requiring no special hardware or software such as PC frame grabber cards. The SkyIPCam310 supports both ActiveX mode (for Internet Explorer users) and Java mode (for Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator users). Therefore, all that is required is a web browser software such as Internet Explorer 5.0 or above or Netscape 6.0 or above. Just plug and view the picture from your SkyIPCam310 with a valid IP Address.
Next-Generation PoE Technology
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE, IEEE 802.3af standard) eliminates the need of 110/220 AC power for the wired LAN devices. With this innovative technology, the network manager can deploy these Ethernet-powered devices using only a single CAT5 Ethernet cable that carries both power and data to each device. This enables the user to build a network with greater flexibility in the Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) environments.
Support Variety of Platforms
The SkyIPCam310 supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail, HTTP and other Internet related protocols, and can be utilized in a mixed operating system environment such as Windows, Unix, and Mac. It can be integrated easily into other www/Intranet applications.
Web Configuration
Applying a standard web browser, the administrator can configure and manage the SkyIPCam310 directly from its own web page via the Intranet or Internet. Up to 32 username s and passwords are permitted with privilege setting controlled by the administrator.
RS-485 Support
The pin 1 & 2 of the I/O connectors are used for RS-485 data transmission. You can connect a special featured device (such as an external camera stand with rotation function) to meet you
