This product has now been discontinued and replaced by the JVC VN-H657WPBU.

The JVC VN-V686WPBU is an outdoor pan-tilt-zoom dome IP camera with an endless 360° operation and large 36x optical zoom for close up monitoring of distant objects.

True day/night functionality, the VN-V686WPBU includes an IR cut filter which eliminates infrared light during daylight hours for natural colour reproduction. At night the camera switches to black and white video and the IR cut filter automatically moves out of place to make the sensor sensitive to infrared illumination, providing 24-hour IP CCTV surveillance.

The VN-V686WPBU is an outdoor model which can work in operating conditions from -40°C to +50°C and can be placed in a wide range of outdoor locations in confidence. Advanced features include image stabilisation which improves image quality by reducing camera shake and motion based auto tracking which can be set to follow moving targets automatically. Like all network cameras the VN-V686WPBU has an integrated 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.

An indoor version is available: JVC VN-V686U indoor PTZ dome
