PRODUCT DATA
Wireless-G Internet Home Monitoring
Camera
The Linksys Wireless-G Internet Home Monitoring Camera sends live video through the
Internet to a web browser anywhere in the world! This compact, self-contained unit
lets you keep track of your home, your kids, your workplace—whatever’s important to
you.
Unlike standard“web cams”that require an attached PC, the Internet Home Monitoring
Camera contains its own web server, so it can connect directly to a network, either
over Wireless-G (802.11g) networking, or over 10/100 Ethernet cable. Choose either
MPEG-4 or Motion JPEG video compression for a high-quality, high-frame rate, up to
640x480 video stream.
The Compact Internet Home Monitoring Camera’s unique form-factor and wireless
connectivity allows you to mount it on a wall nearly anywhere, or slip it into its
included stand for desktop use. Once it’s connected to your home network, you can
“see what it sees”from any PC in the house, while the video stream is secured from
the outside world, hidden behind your Router. If you want the video to be visible
from outside your home network, you can open an appropriate port on the Router,
and then create password-protected accounts to manage access to the camera, or
leave it wide open for the world to see. The TZO domain service (one-year trial sign-up
included) lets you access your camera using an easy-to-remember “name”, even if your
home Internet connection uses a dynamic IP address.
You can also turn on Security Mode, which tells the camera to send a message with a
short video attached to up to three E-mail addresses whenever it detects motion in its
eld of view. You can then log onto the live video stream if the situation warrants. The
included Viewer & Recorder utility lets you record the audio/video stream to your local
hard drive, “live” or on a predetermined schedule.
Let the Linksys Compact Wireless-G Internet Home Monitoring Camera help you keep
tabs on your world.
