Key Features
    Crisp Video, Night and Day
    5 MP sensor with wide-angle lens, recording at 30 FPS, and high-power IR LED for 30 metres of night vision.
    Edge AI Detection and Search
    On-camera AI powers people and vehicle detection, intrusion detection, and Instant Search.
    No Device Licence Required
    Camera requires no Surveillance Station Device Licence or activation.
    Failover Edge Recording
    Supports failover recording onto microSD, in case of network failure.
    Security and Compliance
    Suitable for sensitive applications thanks to HTTPS/ SRTP support and US NDAA/TAA compliance.

Capture quality
Highly detailed, wide-angle coverage helps secure large areas, night or day.
    High resolution of 5 MP (2880×1620) 16:9 provides clear and detailed videos.
    110° wide horizontal viewing angle captures large areas at once and reduces the need for multiple cameras.
    Large aperture of F1.8 and multi-exposure HDR provide good low-light performance without overexposing lighter areas.
    High power infrared LED provides clear night vision up to 30 metres.

Video intelligence
Camera-based AI capabilities empower your surveillance with smart analytics.
    People and Vehicle Detection distinguishes people and vehicles from other moving objects with high accuracy.
    Intrusion Detection identifies people and vehicles, and issues alerts when a virtual border is crossed from a designated direction.
    Instant Search allows for quick investigations with the ability to search for people, vehicles, and motion in an area in the past.
    Pair with Synology DVA models (see accessories tab) for more intelligent analytics, such as face recognition, licence plate recognition, and people counting.

Streamlining and integration
Integration with Surveillance Station streamlines deployment and maintenance.
    Quick and simple single camera or batch installation process through Surveillance Station or the DS cam app speeds up deployment.
    No Surveillance Device Licence purchase or activation required.
    Camera settings adjustment and maintenance features are available directly in Surveillance Station or DS cam.
    Continuous firmware updates provide new features and security enhancements, and can be applied in batch, with or without internet.
    Failover edge storage increases system reliability by automatically switching to microSD recording in case of network failure.

Security and privacy
From recording to archiving, protect your footage with Synology’s integrated safeguards.
    HTTPS & SRTP support enable encrypted network and video transfer, authentication, and integrity protection.
    Storage on Synology devices gives users full ownership over recordings.
    Privacy masks can be irreversibly embedded into footage or applied to live view to cover sensitive areas.
    View a list of connected devices per camera and maintain security by disconnecting or blocking unrecognised devices.
