Features & Benefits:

Network Integration

Security concerns top the agenda of many organizations today leading to an increased presence of surveillance cameras in homes and businesses alike. As surveillance systems become an integral part of the network, the need to quickly integrate and monitor them along with existing networks becomes increasingly important. EnGenius Photon Series IP Cameras seamlessly integrates quickly and easily with EnGenius’ complete line of wired and wireless networking solutions.

IP Cameras - Superior Surveillance Technology

Today’s surveillance cameras are far superior to their older analog CCTV cousins, providing the highest quality digital images along with the highest frame rates for clearer faces, sharper details and smoother video. Also unlike their analog counterparts, IP cameras integrate easily into existing wired or wireless Ethernet networks and offer:

• Simplified Installation –Plug-and-play configuration is standard for IP Cameras. Provide power, network connectivity and stream video over a single CAT5/6 cable or go wireless and simply plug the camera into an electrical outlet vs. the configuration time and multiple cables needed for a single analog camera installation.
• Elimination of Unnecessary Hardware – Connect to existing network switches and store video footage directly to network connected computers or storage servers (NAS), eliminating the need for analog to digital conversion hardware such as video encoders and Digital Video Recorders (DVR).
• Affordable Scalability – Add cameras as needed, with no limits associated to your DVR’s camera connection capacity. Greater Functionality – Easily view IP camera feeds remotely via the Internet, receive automated alerts via email and integrate with feature-rich monitoring software for Intelligent Surveillance; features only previously available with expensive analog video encoder/DVR systems.
• Open Platform – Utilizing a standards-based architecture ensures IP cameras and Video Management Software is interoperable with a wider range of network devices, including Windows-based PCs, as compared to proprietary Network Video Recorders (NVRs) and DVRs.
• Improved Image Quality – On-camera digital processors optimize video, transmitting consistent, high-quality digital images without degradation, compared to lower quality analog CCTV video, which must be converted to digital by the

Wireless Cameras offer Affordability, Flexibility & Scalability in Deployment Scenarios

Choose an EnGenius Photon Series Wireless Camera for even greater flexibility in the most demanding deployments. Eliminate the need for expensive trenching or concrete cutting for CCTV cable-runs in outdoor perimeter camera placements, and cabling through walls, attics or floors. Wireless Cameras also offer a greater level of scalability and are easily added to an existing system with minimal planning.

Photon Wireless IP Cameras support fast wireless speeds up to 150 Mbps, providing high-speed performance, maximizing HD video transmissions.

Wireless IP Surveillance System

Not all surveillance challenges fit into a neat little box. Campuses, civic centers, shopping complexes, plus indoor and outdoor arenas can be crowded with buildings and other obstructions, and may be saturated with a spectrum of RF signals. EnGenius Wireless IP Surveillance System is designed to provide long-range, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint surveillance coverage for expansive venues, transmitting streaming video at stable, robust wireless speeds over great distances – up to 5 miles point-to-point in challenging environments.

Available in both Wireless N300 speeds, the 2.4 GHz IP Surveillance System (EDS8012 or EDS8022) or the 5 GHz IP Surveillance System (EDS8015 or EDS8025), is designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions and features certified IP-rated housing.

Highly Defined Resolution

All Photon Series IP Surveillance Cameras support the latest Progressive Scan CMOS sensor technology, providing crystal clear details in moving objects like car license plates or facial features making these important details less ambiguous. With High Definition quality video running 1080p at 30 frames per second, Photon IP Cameras provide superior quality and smooth video over analog CCTV with smaller file sizes, which is ideal for viewing video on mobile devices, sending via email and maximizing available storage space.

Optimize Images in Varied Lighting

With Wide Dynamic Range technology, select Photon Series IP Cameras can be fine-tuned to ensure an optimal level of configuration for customized lighting environments, providing clear images, even in highly backlit areas indoors and out.

Alarm Alerts

Intergrate IP camera with 3rd party digital alarms, sensors or other electronic devices that activate when motion detectors are triggered, serving as an added deterrent to prolonged suspicious activity.

Excellent Performance in Harsh Environments

Need to deploy surveillance cameras in harsh environments? Select Photon IP Cameras include IP66-rated dust and waterproof housing designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions. With an included cable management bracket, each device is protected and accompanying cables are hidden from damage while offering a clean aesthetic.

Place Almost Anywhere with PoE Support

Extend your camera network to maximize coverage virtually anywhere. Select the Photon IP Camera that best meets your surveillance needs including indoor, outdoor, wired or wireless network access. All cameras are 802.3af-compliant and can be powered via Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), eliminating the need for a nearby electrical outlet.

Push Notification

Remotely view and monitor up to four (4) cameras simultaneously from anywhere and instantly record video with EnGenius’ EnViewer mobile App. View, record and receive triggered event alerts directly to your smartphone or tablet for instant notifications of events-in-progress with free downloadable App for Android and iOS.

24/7 Vigilance

Monitor your business during or after hours, even in low light or in complete darkness up to 85-feet, with EnGenius Day/Night IP Surveillance Cameras. Receive Motion and Audio Detection alerts (on select models) and recordings directly to your smartphone or iPad ensuring a quick response to suspicious activity.

Zone Coverage

Set precise zone coverage within designated areas to record activity or detect motion near entryways or around registers and loading docks within each camera’s field of view. Customize sensitivity in each zone for greater control and even set Motion and Audio Detection Alerts to trigger a connected audible alarm (on select models).

16-Channel Video Management Software (VMS)

Unlike proprietary NVRs and DVRs that are expensive to purchase, maintain and upgrade, EnGenius’ Video Management Software comes free with all Photon Series IP Surveillance Cameras, further enhancing the line’s affordability and lower total cost of ownership.

• Optional split-screen camera view
• Monitor up to 16 cameras simultaneously
• View live monitoring, record video and playback options
• Quick search of archived video via time bar

Enterprise Viewing Capacity

EnGenius VMS Software allows personnel to easily monitor the entire camera network, whether in a multi-building environment or at an entirely separate location. View feeds from up to 16 cameras concurrently, in real-time, and plan for future expansion to 32 or 64-channel capacities with future software upgrades, available via www.engeniustech.com. Conduct basic configuration and initiate firmware upgrades right from your desktop and import your office building’s floor plan to create a camera location map through eMap. Schedule recordings based on time or date, such as after hours or when shipments are due to arrive. Setup and configuration is streamlined with VMS’ Discovery Tool, which quickly locates EnGenius IP Cameras.
