Overview
VIVOTEK CC8130 is a compact cube camera especially designed for retail and indoor surveil-
lance. The unique design makes it the best choice for boutique, department or convenience
stores. The ability to view at a wide angle at 180 degrees provides complete video security with

Camera View Coverage
The camera is designed to capture human activities in a near-hemispheric field of view, at a
place such as a cashier or bank counter. Due to the optical characteristics of wide-angle lens,
image quality decreases as distance from an object increases. It is therefore recommended
to install the camera within 3 meters or closer to the objects of your interest. The focus center
should also be aligned with objects of importance, say, human faces.

■ Secondary HTTP port: 8080
■ RTSP port: 554
■ RTP port for audio: 5558
■ RTCP port for audio: 5559
■ RTP port for video: 5556
■ RTCP port for video: 5557
If you have changed the port numbers on the Network page, please open the ports
accordingly on your router. For information on how to forward ports on the router, please refer
to your router’s documentation.
3. Find out the public IP address of your router provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
