Summary
LILIN’s IRS1204/8 & 1304/8 series feature day/night 2MP H PTZ dome IR IP cameras. These cameras adopt
the latest compression technologies, which allow four simultaneous 1080p streams (Quadruple Streaming) in
H.264 or MJPEG formats in different resolutions. LILIN’s multiple compression technology allows transmission
of high-quality videos in various resolutions such as 2MP, 1, and CIF to suit both high and low bandwidth
network environments.
Our dome IR IP cameras are equipped with an intelligent video analytics engine that features sound detection
and motion detection, which can send advanced alarm information that is compatible with other software and
hardware. Moreover, the cameras provide two-way audio, S card recording, mobile device live access, email
notification with JPEG snapshots, and JPEG-to-FTP upload. Other features include progressive-scan, H.264
high-quality compressed video, and ONVIF compliancy.
LILIN’s IRS1204/8 & 1304/8 series also supports LILIN Navigator, a video management application that
maximizes the capabilities of the cameras and provides you with a comprehensive video management solution.
