- 4MP Super-High Definition: The VIGI C240I camera comes with 4MP — more than enough pixels to pick up some of the more discrete details.
- Human & Vehicle Classification: Distinguishes humans and vehicles from other objects, so you receive more accurate event notifications.
- Smart Detection: Receive notifications and check feeds when someone crosses a boundary, enters an area you’ve set, obstructs the camera, or removes/abandons objects.
- IK10 Vandal-Proof & IP67 Waterproof: With vandal-resistant, rugged housing and waterproof design, this VIGI dome camera is built tough to withstand vandalism and harsh environments with rain and dust for constant security anywhere and anytime.
- H.265+: Without using any extra bandwidth, your cameras transmit compressed crystal-clear video to save disk space, ease network loads, and reduce monitoring costs without sacrificing image quality.
- Smart Video Enhancement: VIGI’s professional technologies process videos to greatly improve their quality that is vital to your monitoring, including Smart IR, WDR, 3D DNR, and Night Vision.
- PoE/12V DC: Two types of power supply not only give you more convenience but also make your wiring remarkably easy.
- 2.8/4 mm Lens: Whether you need a wide-angle lens to cover enclosed spaces or a higher millimeter lens for longer distances in open spaces, C240I comes with two different lens types to better suit your security needs.
- Flexible Management: Take full control over your security via four management methods: the web UI, NVR UI, VIGI app, and VIGI Security Manager.
