Overview
The LevelOne WCS-6020 / WCS-6050 is a quality yet cost-effective surveillance
solution for the home and office. It is designed for easy and flexible installation,
provides a choice of either a 150Mbps wireless or wired connection and a WPS
(Wi-Fi protected setup) button to secure the wireless connection with just the
push of a button, and the motorized Pan and Tilt provides a viewing angle of
±355°pan and ±135°tilt. Equipped with a 2/5-Megap ixel sensor and built-in IR
cut filter/IR illuminator LEDs, the camera provides high resolution quality and
sharp sensitivity – ideal for security applications both day and night.
The WCS-6020 is equipped with many advanced features such as Level1DNS™
Service, DI/DO for external alarm and sensor, a SD/SDHC card slot and USB
interface for local storage, built-in microphone and external speaker for 2-way
audio communications. Moreover, users can also set up 16 motion-detection
regions with the camera, each with adjustable size and sensitivity. When motion
is detected at the specified regions, the system can send an E-mail alert or send
captured images via FTP upload to a designated storage server. The WCS-6020
is indisputably the top choice for reliable and high performance surveillance.

Camera is not only a high-performance web-ready camera but also can be part
