Panasonic BL-C160A Network Camera

The Panasonic BL-C160A Network Camera can be placed virtually anywhere inside the home. The included Power Transfer Unit supplies the camera the power through the LAN cable. The splash-resistant body also lets you install the camera outside, like on house or garage eaves. And dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 protocol prepares it for IPv6 services.

Do you sometimes worry about things at home while you're at work or on vacation? Panasonic network cameras let you monitor your room over the Internet from wherever you are. They even let you pan, tilt and zoom the cameras by remote control. And you can choose the video format to match the Internet connection and your viewing needs. Let Panasonic network cameras keep an eye on things -- anytime, anywhere -- so you can relax and enjoy yourself.

Panasonic BL-C160A Key Features

Outdoor Ready
The splash-resistant body (IPX4 equivalent splash-resistance) expands the scope of applications by letting you install the camera outside, like on house or garage eaves. Resists temperaures from as low as -4 degrees Fahrenheit to as high as 122 degrees Fahrenheit.
Built-in LED Light
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
The included Power Transfer Unit supplies the camera the power through the LAN cable. It allows you to install the camera anywhere, like on the ceiling where no power outlet is.*

* Use a LAN cable that is no more than 30 m (98.4 feet) long to connect the camera and the power transfer unit. Use a LAN cable that is no more than 100 m (328.1 feet) long to connect the camera and the router.
Human Detection Heat and Motion Sensors
The combination of a built-in human detection sensor that responds to heat and a motion detection function that responds to a preset camera threshold or sensitivity detects even slight motions. Captured images can be stored temporarily in the camera* or sent to you by e-mail** or FTP data transfer***.

The frame rate may decrease depending on the network environment, PC performance, and image quality.
** For MPEG-4 only. Not applicable to JPEG.
*** The maximum number of frames changes depending on the resolution and image quality.

10x Digital Zoom
Equipped with a 10x digital zoom function, the camera lets you zoom in and out to view objects that are close or far away.
Panasonic BL-C160A Network Camera
MPEG4 Video
Provides smooth motion images even with limited network speeds or a smaller volume of image data.
Motion JPEG Video
Motion JPEG is recommended for recording higher quality images.
Simultaneous MPEG-4 and JPEG
Camera simultaneously sends MPEG-4 images and JPEG images. MPEG-4 is recommended for viewing smooth motion images, and JPEG is recommended for recording higher quality images.
3 Lux Color Night View Mode
When the subject darkens, the camera automatically adjusts the brightness to show you the image. The Color Night View Mode brings the minimum light requirement down to 3 lux, letting you capture images even in dimly lit places.
HTTPS Data Encryption Deters Electronic Eavesdropping
IPv4 / IPv6 Dual-Stack
Panasonic's new network cameras allow the use of a virtually unlimited number of IP addresses by supporting IPv6, a next-generation protocol. The IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack feature enables you to use IPv4 at the present and switch over to IPv6 in the future.
Ethernet (10Base-T/100Base-TX) Network Interface
30 Frames Per Second Maximum 640 x 480 Video
Cell Phone Monitoring
Still images from the camera can be checked on a cell phone that is capable of normal web access and JPEG viewing.
