Network IP Cameras
IP cameras deliver clear video, smart detection, and easy app access over your home network. To get sharp detail, choose 4K resolution for faces and plates, or stick with 1080p for general coverage. For smarter alerts that cut down on false notifications, look for AI analytics (people/vehicle detection). Outdoor installs benefit from weather-resistant and vandal-resistant housings, while tricky lighting is handled by wide dynamic range (WDR). If you need microphones or sirens, select models with audio. For broad compatibility, choose ONVIF-compliant cameras so they work smoothly with most NVRs.
Power and connect your cameras with a single Ethernet cable using PoE—pair them with an PoE switch and record to an NVR. Expanding to a detached garage or gate? Add network extenders/PoE devices to reach longer distances.
Featured IP Camera Manufacturers
- $10,750.00SKU: EXTE2-VF36-E0AB0
Pelco EXTE2-VF36-E0AB0 Network IP ExSite Enhanced 2 Fixed Thermal Camera with 36mm Lens, 30Hz
- VGA thermal sensor; 36mm fixed focal length; 30Hz frame rate; ExSite Enhanced 2 explosion-proof housing; ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 / Class I Division 1 certified
- 36mm thermal focal length: the narrowest (most telephoto) standard focal length in the ExSite Enhanced 2 thermal lineup — provides the longest detection range per thermal pixel by concentrating the sensor's resolution on a smaller angular area; correct for detecting intruders or objects at the maximum distance from the camera mounting position
- Fixed thermal camera for continuous, no-moving-parts long-range thermal monitoring of a defined corridor, access road, or perimeter segment at extended range
- 30Hz full-motion frame rate for accurate motion detection at the longer-range narrow FOV
$10,750.00Low Price Guarantee - $17,000.00SKU: EXRE2-VF09-E0AB0-1
Pelco EXRE2-VF09-E0AB0-1 Network IP ExSite Enhanced 2 VGA Thermal Camera with 9.2mm Lens, 9Hz
- VGA (640×480) thermal sensor; 9.2mm fixed focal length; 9Hz frame rate (vs. 30Hz of the EXRE2-VF09-E0AB0); ExSite Enhanced 2 explosion-proof housing; ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 / Class I Division 1 certified
- 9Hz vs. 30Hz: the 9Hz variant outputs approximately 9 frames per second rather than 30 — sufficient for slow-moving perimeter intrusion detection where subjects traverse the thermal field of view slowly, but not ideal for fast-moving targets; typically priced lower than the 30Hz variant
$17,000.00Low Price Guarantee - $17,500.00SKU: EXRE2-VF09-E0AB0
Pelco EXRE2-VF09-E0AB0 Network IP ExSite Enhanced 2 VGA Thermal Camera with 9.2mm Lens, 30Hz

$18,000.00Low Price Guarantee - $37,392.00SKU: EXBE2230VF24M1N0B
Pelco EXBE2230VF24M1N0B 2 Megapixel Network IP ExSite Enhanced PTZ Camera with 30X Lens + Thermal 640 X 512 24mm Lens
- Dual payload in single housing: 2MP 30× optical zoom PTZ visible camera + 640×512 thermal sensor with 24mm fixed focal lens; outdoor ruggedized ExSite Enhanced housing; explosion-proof rated for hazardous area (Zone 1/Division 1) deployment
- 640×512 thermal sensor: the highest resolution thermal sensor in Pelco's ExSite lineup — provides substantially more thermal image detail than VGA (640×480) for longer-range threat detection and improved classification capability at the thermal image level
- 24mm thermal focal length provides a narrower, longer-range thermal field of view — correct for extended-perimeter surveillance where the thermal sensor must detect threats at greater distances than shorter focal length thermal optics can achieve
- ExSite Enhanced housing: ATEX/IECEx certified for explosive atmospheres
$37,392.00Low Price Guarantee - $16,264.00SKU: ESCE1-2X40V18-RLU

Network IP Frequently Asked Questions
What is an IP camera?
An IP camera is a digital video camera that transmits data over a network, allowing for remote viewing and recording. Unlike traditional analog cameras, IP cameras can connect to a local area network (LAN) or the internet, enabling users to monitor their property from anywhere using a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
How does night vision work in IP cameras?
Night vision in IP cameras is typically achieved through infrared (IR) technology, which uses IR LEDs to illuminate the area in low light conditions. This allows the camera to capture clear images in darkness, often up to a specified distance, ensuring effective surveillance at all times.
Can I access my IP camera remotely?
Yes, most IP cameras offer remote access through a web browser or mobile app. This feature allows homeowners to monitor live feeds, receive alerts, and review recorded footage from anywhere with an internet connection, providing enhanced security and convenience.
What is the difference between H.264 and H.265 video compression?
H.264 and H.265 are video compression standards used in IP cameras to reduce file sizes while maintaining quality. H.265, also known as HEVC, offers better compression efficiency than H.264, allowing for higher quality video at lower bit rates, which is beneficial for bandwidth and storage management.
Are IP cameras weatherproof?
Many IP cameras are designed with weatherproof enclosures, rated with an IP (Ingress Protection) rating. This rating indicates their resistance to dust and water, ensuring reliable performance in outdoor environments. It's important to check the specific IP rating to ensure the camera can withstand local weather conditions.
