Panasonic BB-HCM580A - Overview

The Panasonic BB-HCM580A IP camera is a controllable pan, tilt and 21x optical zoom network camera with internal SD memory card recording and powerful alarm management features.

Having remote 350° pan control allows the Panasonic BB-HCM580A to cover a much larger area than a conventional IP camera. Suitable for any indoor or outdoor location the camera delivers video up to a resolution of 640x480 pixels at a frame rate of up to 30fps across a Local Area Network (LAN) or the Internet. The camera’s Color Night View Mode automatically optimizes the image for the best light resulting in usable color images in lighting conditions as low as 0.09 lux. Advanced features allow images to be transferred by email or FTP based on events such as motion detection, external alarm input or based on a timed schedule. With a SD memory card slot the camera can also record images internally without the need to be connected to any network. With software supplied to help installation and setup the Panasonic BB-HCM580A is easy to configure and use every day. Like all IP cameras offered on www.networkwebcams.com, the Panasonic BB-HCM580A has a built-in web server and can be viewed over a Local Area Network (LAN), Wide Area Network (WAN) or via the Internet as a streaming IP webcam.
