Introduction

This Chapter provides details of the ICA-500's features, components and capabilities.

Overview

As broadband communication gets more and more popular, it becomes easier to transfer video and audio through network. Traditional surveillance system is gradually evolving to be deployed in packet switching TCP/IP network. PLANET ICA- 500 provides an advanced digital solution of Internet Camera with pan and tilt capability to meet more application demands. It supports wired Ethernet networking. ICA-500 can be placed either in a LAN or an available xDSL/Cable modem connection. ICA-500 also supports DDNS. With its Plug-N-Watch capability, a network administrator or system operator can seamlessly complete network deployment in simply minutes.

Combining 1/3 inch color CCD sensor with the advanced motion JPEG video compression technology, sharp, high-quality video is digitized and delivered by the advanced microcomputer in ICA-500. The high quality of M-JPEG files brings vivid images, which are suitable for surveillance applications.

Motion detection is a powerful function enhanced in ICA-500. If a motion is detected in surveillance spot, this function will capture images, attach them in an email, and alert the system administrator via pop-up message. With bundled camera utility, centralized management (up to 16 cameras) can be fulfilled to save TOC for enterprise users.
