5MP RESOLUTION  The M5VD captures video up to a resolution of 5MP @ 30 FPS, which is 2592x1944 pixels. To put this in perspective, FHD (Full High Definition) is 2 megapixels, or 1920x1080 pixels. Every pixel added to your camera's picture gives you a higher image quality and more detail. So at 5MP, you're going to get a crisper, cleaner, and more detailed image than with your average camera.     NIGHT VISION IR RANGE When the sun goes down or the lights go out, this camera switches on its own onboard infrared LED lights. These lights, which are invisible to the human eye, allow the camera to continue functioning and recording video 24/7, day or night. And since its IR range covers up to 33 feet, you're not going to miss anything that happens on your camera's feeds, even if it happens in pitch-black darkness.     U.265 COMPRESSION By combining U-Code and H.265, Ultra 265 can squeeze up to 95% bandwidth and storage space. Unlike conventional video compression technologies which try to reduce storage costs by sacrificing resolution and frame rate indiscriminately, U-Code chooses to use “IRP” (Intelligent Region Perception) to detect motion in each frame. Hence, scenes containing interesting information could be preserved while the other relatively static areas such as lawns, white walls could be squeezed to save storage.     ON BOARD RECORDING This camera has a MicroSD Card slot for On board Recording. On board recording can be used as a redundant video storage with data saved even if network connection is lost.     WIDE RANGE TEMPERATURE Uniview’s cameras can function well under -40 ℃ ～ 70 ℃ , adapting to all harsh environment condition.     ONVIF® COMPATIBLE

If you want to add this camera to a security system already set up, that’s no problem. This camera complies with the protocols set by the Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF). This means, as long as your current recorder is ONVIF compatible, you’ll be able to set this camera up with your current system in no time at all.     WEATHERPROOFING IP66 RATING This camera has an Ingress Protection (IP) rating of 66. This means the camera is completely protected from dust and other solid particles (the first six). It can also withstand powerful streams of water jets from any direction (the second six). Rest assured that when you install your camera outside, it will have no problem braving the toughest of storms.     BUILT IN MICROPHONE Having audio capabilities in your video surveillance system can be an important feature. With a built-in microphone, allowing you to hear and record crisp, clear audio without running any additional cables to power a microphone.
