FOSCAM FI8910W is an integrated wireless IP Camera with a color CMOS sensor. It combines
a high quality digital video camera, with a powerful web server, to bring clear video to your
desktop from anywhere on your local network or over the Internet.
The basic function of IPCAM is transmitting remote video on the IP network. The high quality
video image can be transmitted with 30fps speed on the LAN/WAN by using MJPEG hardware
compression technology.
With flexible 300-degree pan and 120-degree tilt, FI8910W gives users more comprehensive
control over a monitored site. FI8910W supports IR-CUT, when light conditions turns poor, the IR
cut filter will be automatically removed to accept IR illumination. Meanwhile, the camera switches
itself automatically from color to black and white, assuring optimal image quality at all times.
The IPCAM is based on the TCP/IP standard. There is a WEB server inside which could support
Internet Explore. Therefore the management and maintenance of your device is simplified by
using the network to achieve the remote configuration, start-up and to upgrade the firmware.
Controlling the IPCAM and managing images is simplified by using the provided web interface
across the network utilising either wired or wireless connectivity.
FOSCAM provides Phone APPs for Android and iPhone users, please search “Foscam ip cam
viewer” and install it through APP Store, then you can view your camera directly as a computer.
