This product has been discontinued. An alternative model is the Sony ANC-RS46P network camera.

The Sony SNC-RS44P is an indoor fast dome PTZ network camera with an 18x optical zoom. With advanced image processing the camera can cope with difficult, high-contrast lighting conditions allowing you to see details and objects in bright and shaded areas simultaneously.

With DEPA intelligent video and audio analytics the Sony SNC-RS44P can accurately detect events with minimal false alarms using Intelligent Motion Detection (IMD) where motion can be filtered on size with post filters allowing you to only trigger alarms if that object crossed a predefined line. Also audio detection is based on ambient noise levels and frequency instead of a fixed threshold to improve accuracy.

Easy to install the Sony SNC-RS44P can be powered by high Power over Ethernet meaning only one cable run for both power and data. Like all IP cameras available from Network Webcams, the Sony SNC-RS44P IP security camera has a built-in web server and can be viewed over a Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN) or via the Internet as a streaming IP webcam.

Important: This camera does not include a power supply unless you have selected one from the options above.
