Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the DCS-900W Internet Camera!
The DCS-900W
is
a versatile and unique solution for your small office or home.
Unlike a PC Camera,
the DCS-900W is a stand-alone system with a built-in CPU and Web server that trans-
mits high quality video images for monitoring. The DCS-900W can be accessed re-
motely, and controlled from any PC/Notebook over the Intranet or Internet via a web
browser. The simple installation procedure and intuitive web-based interface offer easy
integration with your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet or 802.11b wireless network. The DCS-
900W also comes with remote monitoring capability for a complete and cost-effective
home security solution.
Features & Benefits
Simple to Use
The DCS-900W is a stand-alone system with a built-in CPU, requiring no special hardware
or software such as PC frame grabber cards. The DCS-900W supports both ActiveX
mode for Internet Explorer and Java mode for Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator.
All that is required is a computer with current Web browser software.
Supports a Variety of Platforms
Supporting TCP/IP networking, HTTP, and other Internet related protocols, the DCS-
900W can be utilized in a mixed operating system environment such as Windows, Unix,
and Macintosh. It can also be integrated easily into other Internet/Intranet applications
because of its standards-based features.
802.11b Wireless or Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Support
The DCS-900W offers both 802.11b wireless and Ethernet/Fast Ethernet connectivity,
making the DCS-900W easy to integrate into your existing network environment. The
DCS-900W works with a 10Mbps Ethernet based network or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet
based network for traditional wired environments and works with 802.11b routers or access
points for added flexibility.
