Description
The TP-LINK VIGI C440 represents a significant leap in accessible professional surveillance, offering 4MP resolution and 24-hour full-color monitoring. By utilizing a high-sensitivity sensor and integrated spotlights, it eliminates the grainy black-and-white footage typical of traditional night vision. Its compact turret design and robust smart detection features make it a versatile choice for securing both indoor and outdoor commercial spaces.
This product is for:
- Small Business Owners: Monitor retail floors or offices with high-definition clarity and real-time alerts.
- Warehouse Managers: Secure large storage areas using line-crossing and area intrusion detection to prevent unauthorized access.
- Residential Users: Enhance home security with a camera that provides color evidence of intruders even at night.
- Property Managers: Oversee multiple locations remotely via the VIGI app with centralized management.
- IT Installers: Benefit from flexible deployment with PoE support, reducing the need for separate power cables.
Detailed specifications:
- Resolution: 4MP (2560 x 1440) at up to 30fps.
- Sensor: 1/3” Progressive Scan CMOS with F1.6 large aperture.
- Lens: 4mm fixed lens with a 79° horizontal field of view.
- Night Vision: 30m IR and Full-Color LED illumination.
- Compression: H.265+ / H.265 / H.264+ / H.264 for optimized storage and bandwidth.
- Power: PoE (802.3af/at) or 12V DC.
Setting up the VIGI C440 is streamlined through the VIGI app, allowing for rapid configuration and remote viewing. The 4MP sensor captures sharp details, such as facial features and license plates, which are often lost in lower-resolution systems. The smart detection suite—including human detection and lens masking—significantly reduces false alarms, ensuring that notifications sent to your smartphone are relevant and actionable.
While the VIGI C440-W offers Wi-Fi flexibility, the standard C440 model is preferred for professional installations where stability is paramount. The inclusion of Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows for a single-cable solution for both data and power, making it more reliable for long-distance runs compared to wireless alternatives. Both models share the same high-quality 4MP sensor and full-color night vision capabilities.
