monitoring solution for your home or small office. Unlike a traditional webcam,
the camera transmits and records high quality video images and audio for 7 days

manage your camera, whether via your computer or app on your iPhone, or Android
device.
mydlink™: the easiest way to monitor your home
Connecting a camera on your network and accessing it has traditionally
required complex configuration. mydlink™ makes it easy to access your camera
from wherever you are, whenever it’s convenient for you. A step-by-step guide
has your camera up and running in a matter of minutes. Then via a simple website
you can set up a mydlink™ account allowing you to view and manage your camera
from any Internet connected computer. If you have more than one camera, you can
add it to your existing mydlink™ account and watch all your cameras from a
single location.
Accessing your cameras on the go is easy too. Just download the free mydlink™
app for your iPhone or Android and you can quickly and easily view your camera
feed from anywhere with a wireless or 3G connection. Thanks to this app, you can
monitor on-the-go even if you don’t have access to a computer.
Night vision
The Enhanced Wireless N Day/Night Home Network Camera comes with built-in
infrared LEDs that allow for monitoring even in complete darkness. The 5-metre
illumination distance makes it suitable for monitoring whatever is important to
you: whether it is your baby in the nursery or your office by night.
A complete monitoring system
This mydlink™ camera includes a MicroSD card slot and a pre-installed 16Gb
MicroSD card to record audio and video directly onto the camera, without the
need of a computer being switched on. You can setup the camera to record only
when motion is detected, or continuously for up to 7 days via the camera’s
intuitive web interface. Once 7 days have been exceeded and the MicroSD card is
at capacity, older footage will be recorded over. The built-in PIR sensor can
detect motion and trigger email alerts. All these features can be easily
configured via the User Interface, which makes this camera a truly comprehensive
home monitoring system.
You can also view up to 32 cameras from a Windows computer using the included
free D-ViewCam software (DCS-100). D-ViewCam has a robust set of features
including centralised alert management and video/audio recording.
Wireless N connectivity
The Enhanced Wireless N Day/Night Home Network Camera includes Wireless N
technology for wider coverage across your home. Wireless N allows you to stream
high-quality video to remote sites over the Internet. A Site Survey feature also
allows you to view and connect to nearby wireless networks with ease. The
DCS-942L also includes a standard Ethernet port for connections to traditional
wired networks.
