Network IP Cameras - 6 Megapixel, Fixed, Wired
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.

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.
