The Compro latest CS400 and CS400P outdoor-ready network cameras can be easily and quickly installed without the need for router configuration or networking expertise. The CS400 and CS400P are loaded with an assortment of advanced surveillance features including day/night functionality, smart motion detection, SMS and Email alert message, and more.

These surveillance cameras come equipped with 30 IR LEDs plus an ambient light sensor that detects environmental lighting conditions. When in low-light conditions, the built-in IR LEDs can be automatically switched on to provide additional infrared light that help deliver clear night-time image. There is a built-in mechanical IR-cut filter placed in front of the image sensor to filter out infrared light in the daytime, producing better color reproduction. At nighttime or when the built-in light sensor detects low-light conditions, IR-cut filter is automatically removed to achieve better light sensitivity.

Each of both cameras utilises the cutting-edge H.264 video compression technology. Compared with the MPEG-4 format, the H.264 technology has higher compression efficiency, which means it can accomplish high image quality while reducing bandwidth requirement and saving storage cost. Unlike other network cameras, installing this camera does not require any networking expertise. Nor is any sort of router setup required - simply plug in the cable, install the camera software, and then the Compro camera is ready to be viewed and shared on the Internet.

Each camera in the series offers an exclusive and feature-rich camera viewer app that allows users to view and manage their Compro cameras on the Iphone or Android phone. The camera mobile app also allows users to securely share camera video with their friends and families on the Friends list. Each user can view the live video and manage his camera from anywhere and at anytime on his web browser. The camera's browser interface, Webvuer, is so easy to use that there is virtually no learning time required.

If any unusual events are detected and an alarm is triggered, the SMS & Email event notification feature enables the camera to send an alert message to specified recipients. The SMS notification service does not impose any monthly subscription fees, and the Email notification service supports popular webmail platforms.

The CS400P has a PoE-supported feature. It helps eliminate the need for a power outlet at the installation site, as a single Ethernet cable can be used to not only power the camera but also transport data in/out of the camera. PoE provides flexibility and convenience in installing the camera in the ideal location.

The IP66-rated weather-resistant aluminium housing protects the camera in adverse weather conditions such as dust, rain, and sun. Each of the CS-400 series network cameras is ready to be mounted outdoors out of the box, saving users installation time and cost.

The camera series offers users increased flexibility with its support for Mac OS X Snow Leopard. On the Macintosh system, users can run camera setup software and view live video feed as well as adjust camera settings using the Macintosh's built-in web browser.
