3.WPA-PSK: Use WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) pre-shared key.

More secure than WEP, the Wi-Fi Alliance developed WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) in 2003 to address WEP’s weaknesses. Improvements included TKIP, which changes the encryption key for each data transmission.

Algorithm: Choose one of the following algorithms for WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK modes.

TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol): A security protocol used in IEEE 802.11 wireless networks.

TKIP is a “wrapper” that goes around the existing WEP encryption. TKIP is comprised of the same encryption engine and RC4 algorithm defined for WEP; however, the key used for encryption in TKIP is 128 bits long. This solves the first problem of WEP: a short key length. (From Wikipedia)

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard): In cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), also known as Rijndael, is a block cipher adopted as an encryption standard by the U.S. government.

As of 2006, AES is one of the most popular algorithms used in symmetric key cryptography. (From Wikipedia)

Pre-shared Key: Enter a key in ASCII format. The length of the key can be between 8 to 63 characters.

4.WPA2-PSK: Use WPA2 pre-shared key.

This advanced protocol, certified through Wi-Fi Alliance’s WPA2 program, implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In particular, it introduces a new AES-based algorithm, CCMP, that is considered fully secure. From March 13, 2006, WPA2 certification is mandatory for all new devices wishing to be certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance as “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED.” (From Wikipedia)

NOTE

After wireless configurations are completed, click Save and the camera will reboot. Wait for the live image ito be reloaded to your browser. For VIVOTEK 7000-series cameras, you have to unplug the power and Ethernet cables from the camera; then re-plug the power cable to the camera. The camera will switch to wireless mode.

Some invalid settings may cause the system to fail to respond. Change the configuration settings only if necessary and consult with your network supervisor or experienced users for correct settings. Once the system has lost contact, please refer to Maintenance on page 77 for reset and restore procedures.

IP7138, IP7139 specifications

Vivotek has made its mark in the field of network cameras with the launch of its IP7139 and IP7138 models, which cater to the increasing demand for high-quality surveillance cameras. These two models offer a range of features and advanced technologies that make them suitable for a variety of applications, including home security, commercial monitoring, and even industrial environments.

The Vivotek IP7139 is equipped with a 1/4" CMOS sensor that provides a resolution of 1280x1024 pixels, enabling clear and sharp images. Its ability to capture video at 30 frames per second ensures smooth recordings, which is crucial for monitoring fast-moving objects or individuals. The camera also boasts a built-in infrared filter and infrared LED illumination, allowing for exceptional performance in low-light conditions. This functionality ensures that surveillance can continue around the clock, providing peace of mind at all hours.

On the other hand, the IP7138 model offers similar high-quality imaging capabilities with a slightly different focus. It also utilizes a 1/4" CMOS sensor and supports video resolutions up to 1280x1024 pixels. However, the IP7138 is designed more for indoor applications, making it an ideal choice for small businesses or residential settings. Its compact design ensures it can seamlessly blend into a variety of environments.

Both models feature Vivotek's Smart Stream technology, which optimizes bandwidth usage by efficiently managing data streams. This feature is particularly beneficial in scenarios where network resources are limited, as it allows for the efficient transmission of critical video data while minimizing unnecessary load.

In terms of installation and usability, both the IP7139 and IP7138 are remarkably user-friendly. They support Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, which simplifies the installation process by enabling power and data to be transmitted over a single Ethernet cable. This streamlines installation and reduces the need for additional cabling.

Further enhancing their adaptability, the cameras come equipped with a built-in web server, allowing users to manage settings and access video feeds remotely via a web browser. Additionally, the IP7139 and IP7138 support various cloud services, making it easier for users to store and access recordings from anywhere.

In conclusion, Vivotek's IP7139 and IP7138 network cameras are packed with advanced features and technologies designed to meet the diverse needs of surveillance users. With high resolution, low-light performance, bandwidth optimization, and ease of installation, these models stand out as reliable choices in the competitive landscape of IP cameras.
