This product has now been discontinued. An alternative camera is the Vivotek IP8364-C.

The Vivotek IP8161 is a 2-megapixel fixed network surveillance camera able to operate normally during the day and then continue to function at night in when used with infrared lighting. Designed for monitoring large areas, this camera is a good choice for environments like airports, shopping centres or warehouses.

H.264 video compression enables the camera to optimise bandwidth usage without affecting the video quality, while its support of two-way audio and built-in microphone allows the user to communicate quickly and easily with people on site.

The camera’s tamper detection function immediately sends an alert if the camera is obscured or damaged and its Power over Ethernet (PoE) facility means a single Ethernet cable can supply both power and data to the camera, simplifying installation and allowing it to be deployed in a variety of areas without a power supply nearby.

Vivotek IP8161 - Key Benefits:

• Up to 4x more detailed images than a standard IP camera can be captured
• Minimise bandwidth usage without compromising video quality using H.264 video compression
• Know immediately if the camera has been blocked or moved with integrated tamper detection
• Communicate quickly and easily with personnel on site via two-way audio
• Receive usable images in both normal and low-light conditions using the switchable infrared-cut filter (requires additional IR lighting for low-light monitoring)

Vivotek IP8161 - Key Features:

• 2-megapixel resolution footage up to 1600x1200 pixels
• Switchable infrared-cut filter provides usable images in both normal and low light conditions
• H.264 video compression optimises bandwidth usage
• Tamper detection alerts users to movement or occlusion of the camera image
• Two-way audio support allows the user to co-ordinate with colleagues on-site
• Simultaneous dual streaming of H.264, MJPEG and MPEG-4
• Automated preset touring lets viewers focus on a variety of areas automatiucally
• IEEE802.3af compliant Power-over-Ethernet, allows a single Ethernet cable to provide both power and data, simplifying installation
• Local recording of MP4 video files allow you to store video without using external hardware or software
• Backlight compensation (BLC) allows the user to adjust the brightness of the image
• Supports privacy masks, enabling the operator to obscure certain parts of the image
• 32 Channel ST7501 recording software is included

Vivotek IP8161 - Typical Applications:

• The Vivotek IP8161 is designed to be used in large areas where objects need to be indentified accurately such as car parks, bank foyers or shopping centres.
