FULLY FEATURED PTZ CAPABILITIES

The DCS-5230 is a wireless 802.11n PTZ network camera designed for indoor surveillance applications and remote monitoring. A built-in Wireless N module provides speeds of up to 300Mbps and a wider operational range than standard 802.11g. The camera employs a 1.3 megapixel CMOS image sensor, a built-in

IR LED for low-light capture, and a micro SD card slot for front-end storage. A WPS button allows home users to set up a wireless connection within minutes 3 .

The DCS-5230 is equipped with a PIR sensor for accurate motion detection with minimal false alarms. Using this technology, motion can be gauged by the temperature of the objects moving into the view of the detector, which automatically triggers when these objects approach the camera. The DCS-5230 offers a powerful yet affordable solution for your home or office security needs.

POWERFUL SURVEILLANCE

The DCS-5230 features a built-in infrared LED for night surveillance. The camera uses a 1.3 megapixel image sensor that is capable of 10 frames per second at full 1280 x 1024 pixel resolution, and 30 frames per second in 640 x 480 pixels VGA mode. Megapixel resolution provides extraordinary detail and clarity that is not seen in traditional analog and VGA cameras. IP cameras provide large images and greater power savings in comparison with conventional CCD systems.

HIGH-QUALITY IMAGE MONITORING FROM ANYWHERE

Designed for operation as a standalone system, the DCS-5230 includes a CPU, web server, and an advanced video/audio surveillance remote monitoring utility.

With sharp, responsive pan/tilt movements and digital zoom, the DCS-5230 can monitor from different angles and quickly orient itself to focus on any detail. It provides high quality real-time videos in MPEG-4 and JPEG compression with QVGA/VGA/XGA/SXGA resolution for smoother performance. The camera’s live feed can be accessed from a 3G cellular network through a 3G cell phone, PDA or any compatible RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) devices. Users are offered a flexible and convenient way to remotely monitor their home or office in real time from anywhere within a 3G service area.

SIMPLE & EASY TO USE

To save disk space and time, images can be recorded to a hard drive only when motion is detected. This eliminates the need for round-the-clock recording. Images can be recorded manually or using a pre-set schedule. Reviewing recordings consumes little time thanks to triggered event browsing and fast database searching.

Users can also set up automated e-mail alerts for all triggered events. D-ViewCam is included allowing users to monitor and manage 32 cameras in a single display from a central location. The camera additionally provides a Privacy Mode option which can rotate the camera and hide the camera lens when requested. The camera adheres to the Universal Plug-n-Play specification, which allows computers running on Windows XP/Vista to automatically recognize the camera and add it to the network. Administrators can sign up with one of the many free Dynamic DNS services available on the web and assign an easy-to-remember name and domain to the camera (e.g. mycamera.dlinkddns.com). This allows them to remotely access the camera without having to remember the IP address.

WHAT THIS PRODUCT DOES

D-Link’s DCS-5230 is a 802.11n (draft) wireless pan/ tilt/zoom network camera which provides a powerful yet cost-effective security solution for home and

SOHO users. The camera is equipped for real-time monitoring both day and night thanks to a built-in infrared LED and a 0.5 Lux CMOS sensor, ideal for lowlight conditions. The video feed can be monitored from anywhere using a mobile device with 3G mobile video support. Real-time video can be streamed in both

MPEG-4 and JPEG simultaneously, allowing systems to be optimized for both image quality and bandwidthefficiency. Motorized pan/tilt controls with 16x digital zoom allow you to grab close ups and take snapshots directly from a web browser. A PIR sensor allows the camera to more accurately detect motion within the camera’s field of view. The camera also includes a WPS button which simplifies setup of a secure wireless connection.

REMOTE MONITORING OPTION

DCS-5230 features 3G mobile video support, enabling users to view the camera’s live video feed on a compatible 3G mobile phone or PDA. The bundled

D-ViewCam IP video management software allows you to manage up to 32 cameras simultaneously, send automated e-mail alerts, and record video to your hard drive whenever motion is detected.
