ZyXEL unveils cloud-enabled, IP cameras for home surveillance and small businesses

ZyXEL Communications, a provider of secure broadband
networking, Internet connectivity, home entertainment and routing products, has
launched its cloud enabled series of web cameras, the IPC3605N and IPC4605N.

 

The ZyXEL’s IPC3605N and IPC4605N have built-in,
cloud-based technology that eliminates traditional installation processes and
access difficulties inherent in previous generations of these devices.

 

The IPC3605N and IPC4605N incorporate the latest 802.11n
wireless technology to enable uninterrupted surveillance in any condition.

 

“Previously, IP cameras demanded complicated
configurations, requiring users to make significant changes to their router.
These configurations included port forwarding to a specific port that was
popular among developers, so the port was often already dedicated to another
application. Or, the solutions relied on UPnP, which was often disabled by the
service operators,” said Steven Joe, executive vice president of channel
business for Americas at ZyXEL.

 

The units offer h.264 video encoding to save bandwidth
without compromising video quality. Additionally, clear audio monitoring and
720p video provides enhanced visual clarity over traditional 640×480 network
cameras.

 

ZyXEL’s webcams deliver an array of Infrared LEDs that
automatically illuminate dark areas, providing perfect vision up to 15 feet.

 

ZyXEL offers a free suite of apps for PCs and mobile
devices running Apple’s iOS or Android for fast and easy remote access. Users
simply register their cameras online and download the app, and can instantly access
video feeds via a connected device.

 

The IPC3605N and IPC4605N will be available in February
and priced at $99 and $185 respectively.

 

Recently,
ZyXEL Communications launched its VFG Series of firewall / VPN gateways created
exclusively for small businesses and home offices.

 

The compact VFG6005 and VFG6005N provide this crucial
separation, delivering the power, protection and rich features of ZyXEL’s
award-winning USG firewalls, including remote and Internet access, at an
affordable price.
