A built-in microphone adds audio context, while PoE keeps power and network data on one cable. Its compact turret design suits indoor ceilings and walls where a discreet, adjustable camera is useful. Pair it with a suitable recorder and storage to turn a live view into footage that can be reviewed when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Clearer View of Activity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2MP Full HD video with H.265+ compression.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightPro switches between IR and white-light colour viewing when configured for detected activity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUseful Event Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHuman and vehicle classification for supported motion events.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntrusion, line-crossing and region-entry\/exit detection with a built-in microphone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Planned Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIEEE 802.3af PoE and a wired 10\/100Mbps network connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose the fixed lens for the scene; storage and a suitable PoE source are separate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePut the Field of View First\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA wider view can cover more of an entrance or room, while a narrower view puts more of the scene’s pixels into a smaller area. The lens choices differ in field of view rather than providing motorised zoom. Plan the mounting height, target distance and lighting together, and use the lens specification in the table to choose the appropriate view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUse LightPro with Intent\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLightPro can switch from infrared viewing to white-light full-colour imaging when a person or vehicle is detected. This helps retain colour information around relevant activity while reducing the need for continuous white illumination. Night-vision reach is a manufacturer maximum of 30M; reflections, lighting, subject movement and the selected settings affect usable detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMake Alerts More Relevant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHuman and vehicle classification helps distinguish supported motion events from other scene movement. Intrusion, line-crossing and region-entry or exit rules can be configured around the area being monitored. Detection is an aid to review, not a guarantee that every event will be identified correctly. This camera does not provide the separate people\/vehicle analytics counting functions listed for higher-tier models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdd Audio Context without a Separate Microphone\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in microphone can capture audio alongside the video when enabled and supported by the recording setup. There is no built-in speaker or two-way talk function on this model. Configure audio and access permissions around the site’s requirements and applicable privacy obligations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGive Recording Its Own Storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a compatible VIGI recorder such as the NVR1104H-4P, or another supported recording platform. ONVIF Profiles S\/T and RTSP provide integration options, but available events and codec support depend on the receiving platform. This camera has no onboard memory-card storage, so buying a microSD card does not add local recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKeep the Mounting and Power Correct\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo IP weatherproof rating is specified for EasyCam C420 in the manufacturer’s datasheet, so plan indoor or suitably protected placement. The accessory matrix lists VJB-240 and VJB-300 for this model, rather than VJB-305. Use a suitable IEEE 802.3af source with enough available power. A PoE switch, injector, recorder, hard drive and optional bracket are separate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSummary\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EasyCam C420 suits a straightforward wired surveillance installation that needs Full HD detail, relevant event alerts and audio capture. Choose the view and mounting arrangement first, then pair the camera with suitable PoE and recording storage for a complete system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"ace-article-faq\" aria-label=\"Frequently asked questions\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"ace-form-disclosure\"\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"ace-form-title\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-title-text\"\u003eDoes this camera connect by Wi-Fi?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-toggle\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-expand\"\u003eExpand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-collapse\"\u003eCollapse\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-chevron\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"ace-form-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It uses a wired Ethernet connection and receives power through a suitable IEEE 802.3af PoE source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"ace-form-disclosure\"\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"ace-form-title\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-title-text\"\u003eWhich lens should I choose?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-toggle\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-expand\"\u003eExpand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-collapse\"\u003eCollapse\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ace-form-chevron\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"ace-form-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2.8mm lens has a wider view, while 4mm has a narrower view of the same scene.
