The Internet Camera connects directly to an Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or 802.11b (DCS-
1000W only) Network. It is different from the conventional PC Camera because the
Internet Camera is a stand-alone system with a built-in CPU and web server providing a
low cost solution that can transmit high quality video images for monitoring. The Internet
Camera can be accessed remotely, and controlled from any PC/Notebook over the Intranet
or Internet via a web browser. The simple installation procedures and web-based inter-
face offers easy integration to your network application environments coupled with many
applications such as remote monitoring for a cost-effective solution.
Simple to Use
The Internet Camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU requiring no special
hardware or software such as PC frame grabber cards. The Internet Camera supports
both ActiveX mode for Internet Explorer and Java mode for Internet Explorer and
Netscape Navigator. Therefore, all that is required is a computer with a web browser
software such as Internet Explorer 4.0 or above or Netscape 4.0 or above. Just plug
and view the picture from your Internet Camera with a valid IP Address.
Supports a Variety of Platforms
Supporting TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail, HTTP and other Internet related
protocols, the Internet Camera can be utilized in a mixed operating system environment
such as Windows, Unix, and Macintosh. It can also be integrated easily into other
Internet/Intranet applications because of its standards based features.
