1. Introduction
The 1.3 Mega Pixel Indoor/Outdoor Mini Dome IP Camera is capable of serving
real-time streaming video to various devices. It can be viewed at home or over
the Internet on a PC, OmniTouch 5.7e, OmniTouch 10p, or handheld mobile
device, such as PDA, Smartphone, or other device running Windows®Mobile
operating system, using LEVITON Snap-Link Mobile (1120M) or LEVITON WL3
(1112). Additionally, it can be viewed on an iPhoneTM without any additional
software.
Since each Mini Dome IP Camera has a built-in web server and network
interface, it may not require additional hardware, software, or programming
(besides configuring its network settings) to view live video transmissions.
After configuring its network settings, it can be accessed from anywhere with an
Internet connection.
In addition to MJPEG real time streaming, the Mini Dome IP Camera employs
an H.264 main profile codec for a high resolution digital broadcast.
With the Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) feature, there is no need for power
outlets, which significantly reduces the cost of cabling and installation.
Additionally, its light weight and compact size offer a quick and simple
installation on the ceilings or walls inside or outside of houses and buildings.
