BB-HCM581 Description

High-end network camera with Pan/Tilt/21x optical zoom and MPEG-4/JPEG monitoring

You can use the zoom function to get a close, detailed look at certain parts of the image while you are monitoring. The 42x zoom is especially convenient for monitoring areas that have considerable depth.

The camera can move its lens in extra-wide range (horizontal 350° and vertical maximum 120°). It allows you to check whole area in a room with one camera.

Power is supplied through the Ethernet cable, so the network camera can be easily installed and added to the ceiling, since no additional work is required for a power outlet. (compatible with IEEE802.3af ) Power can also be supplied by an optional AC adaptor.

Camera simultaneously sends MPEG-4 images in three resolutions (VGA, QVGA, and SCIF), and JPEG images in the same three resolutions in favour motion, standard, and favour clarity image-quality types. MPEG-4 is recommended for viewing smooth motion images, and JPEG is recommended for recording higher quality images.

A large number of images can be saved onto an SD/SDHC Memory Card inserted into the camera. The images on the card can be checked over the Internet, or if no network is being used, monitoring is possible using only the camera by simply storing the images onto the card.

Simultaneous MPEG-4 and JPEG

Cameras simultaneously send MPEG-4 images in three resolutions (VGA*, QVGA, and SCIF), and JPEG images in the same three resolutions in favour motion, standard, and favour clarity image-quality types. MPEG-4 is recommended for viewing smooth motion images, and JPEG is recommended for recording higher quality images.

42x Zoom (21x Optical & 2x Digital) Function

You can use the zoom function to get a close, detailed look at certain parts of the image while you are monitoring. The 42x zoom is especially convenient for monitoring areas that have considerable depth.

Analogue Video Output

By connecting a cable directly to the camera's video output terminal, you can use your existing TV or video recorder for monitoring. When using analogue video output, the camera automatically switches to interlace scanning to suppress flicker in motion images.

Colour Night View Mode (0.09 lux) & CCD Sensor

When the subject darkens, the camera automatically adjusts When the brightness to show you the image. A CCD image sensor and smooth motion capture at 30 frames/sec combine to let you see down to a minimum of 0.09 lux. You see clear, easy-to-view images even in the dark.

Audio 2-way Communication (The BB-HCM581 only)

By using a separately purchased microphone and speaker, you can speak to someone near the camera while monitoring. This gives you more precise communication to lessen the inconvenience of being in a distant location.

SD Memory Card Recording

A large number of images can be saved onto an SD Memory Card inserted into the camera. The images on the card can be checked over the Internet, or if no network is being used, monitoring is possible using only the camera by simply storing the images onto the card

Image Transfer Function

In accordance with preset settings, the camera will automatically transfer images and a data log by e-mail to an e-mail address or by FTP to a server. This allows you to check images only when necessary, and also prevents you from forgetting to check them.

Remote Pan and Tilt Control

You can use a PC or cell phone directly to change the direction that the camera is facing while monitoring the image. This lets you monitor a large area with a single camera.
