Description
The Reolink RLC-823A is a Smart PTZ PoE Security Camera with 16X Optical Zoom. Zooming is now even easier and faster with 3D Zoom, focusing on the specific area that you selected on the screen. Your viewing is detailed and clear, even at a distance.
360° Coverage: Experience complete surveillance with 360° pan and 90° tilt capabilities, complemented by adjustable motor speeds for precise control. Effortlessly monitor your front yard, porch, driveway, and the sides of your home with no blind spots.
Smart Patrol: Define your most commonly viewed areas as points of interest so the camera can patrol by moving its view between your preset positions with a single touch.
Auto Tracking: Once a person/vehicle/animal is detected, the camera will follow and keep it in sight for however it remains within the area, so you won't miss anything important.
4K Colourful Videos, Day & Night: Rest easy and enjoy a crisper, more vivid picture that's 4x sharper than HD. When the night falls, choose the perfect lighting mode tailored to your needs: full-colour night vision with its spotlights always on, or IR black & white vision offering visibility up to 80m.
Sound Alarm for the Unwelcome: Notice something suspicious? No worries. A remotely-enabled siren is always ready to keep uninvited guests off your premises. Stifle any crime in the cradle.
Be There Without Being There: The built-in mic and speaker allow you to talk to your family members, provide instructions for deliveries, or deter intruders with a voice message from anywhere.
