Does this camera have a Web Interface? |
2022-12-29 |
On PC you can use the Amcrest Easy Viewer from the Chrome store. On PC & Android you can also download the Amcrest Surveillance Pro App/software. These options would all be for Live viewing, not recording. I cant speak for anything Apple related. |

No, this is hardwired only. Also, it only gets it power from a data cable. |

You can't. This is a hard-wired POE camera.
You can access it via WiFi, assuming you have a WiFi router. |

What is the use for the 12v Jack? |
2022-12-11 |
The 12V Jack is to provide power to the camera if POE is not available. |

2022-12-11 |
If you do not use power over ethernet then you need the 12v jack to power the camera. |

Whats means 8 megapixel poe adonde 4k ultra hd ? what the correct resolution? |
2023-02-21 |
4K surveillance cameras offer high resolution 3840*2160 with over 8 million pixels, the 8 million pixels is why a 4K camera is also considered or called an 8MP security camera.
Honestly, I just googled it. 🙂 |

Can this camera be installed sideways and still provide upright video? I have to install the cameras on the side of a building vs. the eaves. |
2022-09-20 |
Yes it can be mounted sideways. I have mine like this and have no problems. |

2022-12-18 |
Sure. Doesn't matter how you install it. The only thing you really have to worry about is how close the camera is to anything on the side because of the possibility of infrared glare at night. |

2022-12-18 |
If you mean physically, then yes, but only sheltered from rain. If you mean from a video usage perspective, then yes. I am fairly certain (going on my recollection) there was a feature to rotate the image. Failing that, whatever software you use to manage the video stream should be able to rotate the image. |

2022-12-22 |
Lots of options. 1 use a POE injector. 2 poe powered video recorder 3 use a POE switch.
If one camera use the injector. If multiple cameras use the switch. Assuming you are using the SD card for memory. |

Can you use this camera as a standalone unit? |
2023-02-22 |
Yes. It can use a memory card to record the videos. But you still need a computer connected to the ethernet to the camera to set up the device and view any video files.
The memory card is not readily accessible.
You're best off plugging it into a dvr, network, wifi. |

Can you use this camera as a standalone unit? |
2023-02-22 |
Yup, if you mount an SD card (found inside the cam compartment) and it will record to it. Just provide PoE and it will do the rest. Picture is okay for daylight use, not so much for nights, unless you are in a well lit zone. |

Install the Amcrest View Pro app is a good start, then it would depend on if you want to just connect to a single camera or NVR. If you want to connect to a Amcrest NVR with this camera attached then you'll need the serial number and login info. If just a single camera you can use the software's built in device manager to scan the QR directly from the camera to set it up. |

The description says it can be used with a flash-based browser like safari. flash is very insecure, can it be used with safari without flash? |
2022-12-18 |
The instructions provide you with a camera address for your private network. You should be able to enter that into most any browser. I use a CLI application called "motion" to record security video footage on motion, and it has nothing to do with "flash." I'm using the Brave browser now, and I can view live video from the camera. |

Are all 8 pins used on the rj45 connection? Or can i split off and existing ethernet and use only 4 pins? Has anyone tested this? |
2023-02-24 |
i haven’t tested. but it links as 10/100 so that means only 2 pair (4 wires). |

5mp or 8mp? The pictures in the listing shows both. I don't trust a seller that has conflicting information. |

How is the close up 4-5ft range video? (our trendnet has good close up video no audio, our hikvision 2.8 mm, audio but blurry closeup video) |
2022-11-05 |
It has excellent close-ups video quality. In all directions. Anything 35 ft and further starts to pixelate. |

Is there an amcrest I can hardwire to porch light ?
Is there ceiling adapter ? Is there a motion light ? |
2022-12-04 |
You might want to look into their floodlight. Amcrest does lack support on updates. Eufy is a slightly better choice imo. Or even Lorex |
