IP Security Camera
An IP Security Camera transmits remote images over a packet-switched network to a central router or switch over a transmission medium. This approach is superseding analog security and monitoring cameras due to enhanced quality of image delivery, as well as networking capabilities for the cameras. In some cases, the transmission medium is an Ethernet cable such as CAT5. In addition to data flow to and from the camera over the data transmission wires, dc power can also be injected, eliminating the need for additional power wiring or connection to a local power outlet using an ac/dc adapter.
