WV-NP472: Broadband Capable: One Network Camera
for 24-Hour Surveillance
New from Panasonic, the WV-NP472 directly connects to
either digital or analog devices. Simply set an IP address and
connect it to an Ethernet terminal for monitoring and control
from a personal computer. Or use
the analog video out to connect
to conventional monitoring
systems using coaxial cable.
Super Dynamic
The WV-NP472 camera utilizes Panasonic’s Super Dynamic
II function to capture natural images at entryways, near
windows, and in other locations with harsh contrasts between
light and dark.
Motion Detection
It automatically stores images in repose to
inputs from motion detectors and external sensor alarms and
can send images automatically as e-mail attachments. In
addition, this color camera can also control external devices,
turning on lighting or starting a surveillance recorder working.
Day/Night Camera
It operates with only 0.8 lx (0.08 fc) of available light in color
mode and a mere 0.1 lx (0.01 fc) in black and white. Its Day/
Night switching function automatically switches to black-andwhite
recording when available light is low. Thus, this single
security camera can deliver 24-hour surveillance.
Networking
The WV-NP472 is designed for monitoring over a WAN or
over the Internet a snap. Its sophisticated surveillance
functions make this the network security camera of choice for
a wide range of settings, including banks, office buildings,
and franchise outlets.
