Sharx Security VIPcella-IR SCNC2700WP Wired PoE IP network camera with MicroSD DVR and True Day/Night vision









Product Description

New PoE (Power over Ethernet) version of the popular Sharx SCNC2700 IP camera. Excellent daytime colors and built in infrared LEDs for true day/night vision. No wireless, requires 10/100 Ethernet with Cat5e wiring. Using a PoE network switch such as Netgear FS108P it can be powered over the same network cable. Multiple viewers can see video or snapshots in any of the supported formats including MPEG4, MJPEG, 3GPP and JPEG. Both HTTP and RTSP streaming protocols are supported for use with browsers or media players on Windows or Mac computers as well as iPhone, Droid, Blackberry or other web enabled cell phones. Multiple streams with 3 separate choices of image quality are available simultaneously. Video can be adjusted from near DVD quality with audio and full motion (2048K, 640 x 480, 30 fps) all the way down to a bandwidth saving mobile stream (20K, 176 x 144, 5 fps). With an optional MicroSD memory card the camera functions as a standalone DVR for motion detection or continuous video. Recording time ranges from 1 hour/GB to almost 100 hours/GB based on selected video quality. The camera can automatically upload recorded video files to an FTP server or standalone network drive with FTP feature. The included desktop stand can be used as wall or ceiling mounting bracket. Power is supplied by PoE or the included international 100-240V AC adapter. This camera can see up to 30 ft in absolute darkness with its built in infrared LEDs. A router with available LAN network jack is required for operation. Access from outside the home network requires internet service. Automatic setup for remote viewing requires a recent model router with the UPnP feature. Older routers, networks with multiple routers, or Apple Airport require manual configuration. Step by step instructions included for current version of Airport Extreme or Time Capsule. Includes 30 days unlimited free email tech support and up to 30 minutes of free telephone support during the first 30 days after purchase.

5Great Cam, Fabulous Support
By ANWaudio
A friend recommended the the Sharx line of cams; I was impressed with the picture quality and very pleased with the comprehensive web-enabled features. All I'd need to monitor vacant property remotely over the 'net would be the cam, router, and modem -- no local host computer was required. What really amazed me has been the speed and quality of Sharx support. I needed more than the average user -- not because of the cam, but because of my admittedly ancient router. When a lot of companies would have said, "sorry, we aren't going to waste our time, YOU, customer, have to buy new equipment," Sharx stepped up and helped me get all the functionality: streaming, motion sensing triggers, email alerts, clip record and immediate export to another remote system. Doubly amazing is that I often got a support email reply back from them in 15 minutes or less. More than once they offered to call with voice support on their dime, but I felt guilty about using so much of their time so I kept it to email. Good cam, great folks.

5Sharx Security VIPcella-IR SCNC2700WP
By J. Springer
We installed the SCNC2700WP this weekend at a remote location. We have a motion sensor installed and will get a message saying that it is sensing occupancy. With this camera we can see what is going on versus driving several hours to investigate. We considered several other models made by Panasonic, Imogen and Belkin; and after reading reviews on Amazon decided to buy this camera – the night vision and the excellent product support really sold us. The picture quality is amazing for both day and night. The daytime picture is color and the night is black and white using infrared. We are able to see what is going on inside and on the deck 24 hours a day. We also tested the camera during the daytime by placing it in a window looking outside and were able to see clearly as if we were standing at the window. The picture is so clear you can identify the types of birds at the bird feeder. If somebody is walking in the camera viewing area, they are blurry until they stop moving. We initially installed the camera looking over a white counter-top but the bright white surface washes out the picture, especially at night.The instruction manual is comprehensive but hard to follow. It mixes windows, android and apple instructions together and it is not always clear which one is which. It would have been much easier to use if each operating system was separate. If you are a savvy computer geek those instruction are probably clear, but we are not. This unit is not wireless and requires both a Cat 5 cable and a power cable to operate. To use POE (power over Ethernet) you need a special router or an attachment for the router to use; the POE allows you to eliminate the power cable. In hindsight, the wireless one would have been easier to install. It installed easily for viewing over the local IP network but we had trouble viewing using the external IP address. We contacted the company via e-mail and got excellent support and are now able to view externally. Their pledge is “We pledge that we will not let you fail. Contact us with any questions, no matter how simple or how complicated.” So far their pledge is true to form. We will be setting up some other web applications later this week and will update this product review.

5Love that POE!!!
By Faja4X
Sharx make great cameras if you are interested in getting a great picture. I have installed probably over 35 of their cameras for smaller firms looking for an inexpensive solution for their security. I have also installed Foscams, Lofteks, Panasonics...you name it and my personal preference are the Sharx units. I just installed this POE unit in my home so that I can monitor when I am away. And speaking of that, I have to give a shout out to a great little iPhone app named IP Cam Viewer...it makes monitoring you cameras as easy as pie and also provides sound. While many of the cameras I have installed depend on wireless, I really prefer Ethernet when possible and the Power Over Ethernet feature of this camera makes this installation that much easier. I have also found that powerline Ethernet adapters work wonderfully to extend the reach of a home or office network. The Sharx cameras come with free software to enable viewing up to 4 cameras at once...a really nice interface that allows you to view all cameras or switch easily between them. You will find that Sharx cameras cost more than the opening price point Foscams and Lofteks, but in my view, they are worth it.
