AvaEye 5MP WiFi Mini Pan Tilt Zoom with 2-Way Audio, 5X Zoom, Starlight, AvaEye

Interested in getting a professional small WiFi PTZ camera with audio and alarm connections? Check out this mini PTZ camera by Avalonix (model PTZ5MP5XS), a high-performance surveillance solution. The camera features a 5X zoom lens and a 5MP image sensor, which allows for precise zooming and clear 3K Resolution image capture at a distance. The pan-tilt motor provides fine control over the camera, making it easy to point it wherever you want, whenever you want. Mounting options include wall mounts and pole mounts. The camera is made for indoor use.

This camera also has two-way audio capability. It has a built-in microphone and speaker, so you can listen to what's going on around the camera and respond if you need to. This feature can be used to talk to employees or to talk to family at home. With the two-way audio feature and the camera's alarm input and output, you can set off an audible alarm. These features are all compatible, whether you're using the camera with an AvaEye NVR or as a solo camera with the AvaEye app or AvaEye PC software.

This WiFi mini PTZ can be used wirelessly, or it can be connected by PoE when you want a more reliable wired installation. When used over PoE with a compatible AvaEye NVR, the camera can be part of a standalone local camera system that does not require internet access or monthly fees. The NVR can power the camera, record video, display the camera on a local monitor, and allow PTZ control directly from the recorder. Internet is only needed if you want remote viewing through the AvaEye app or off-site access.

The video below shows an example AvaEye PTZ camera system in action. While the demo uses a larger AvaEye PoE PTZ model, it gives a practical look at how an AvaEye PTZ camera can be viewed, recorded, and controlled through an AvaEye NVR with local monitor viewing and no monthly fees. Exact zoom range, camera size, night vision distance, power requirements, and cable distance vary by model, but the video is a helpful example of what is possible when using AvaEye PTZ cameras as part of a complete system.

With the aid of Starlight Technology, the camera can take high-quality images even with little ambient lighting. The advanced image sensor makes the camera sensitive to light. Starlight PTZ cameras excel at surveillance in low-light areas. At night, with no ambient light, the camera changes to black and white and turns on its infrared night vision, which lets it see things up to 100 feet away.

	WiFi Connectivity The camera comes with Wi-Fi connectivity, requiring a 12V DC power adapter, meaning the camera can go anywhere within the range of a 2.4GHz WiFi network. This feature allows you to view live footage and control the camera's settings from anywhere using a smartphone or tablet. It also enables you to quickly and easily share footage with others. Additionally, the camera is also equipped with PoE technology, so it can be used as a wired camera instead.
	5MP 3K Video 3K resolution in security cameras marks a notable advancement in the realm of video surveillance, offering a resolution that is substantially sharper than standard 1080p HD cameras. This enhanced clarity ensures that the footage captured is richer in detail, enabling users to identify subtle nuances in scenes, such as distinct facial characteristics or specific elements on a vehicle. Moreover, the higher pixel density allows for better digital zoom functionality, meaning users can hone in on particular points of interest in their footage without a substantial decrease in image quality. By bridging the gap between HD and ultra-HD resolutions, 5MP cameras provide a superior balance of coverage and detail clarity, making them a favored choice for many security professionals.
	Optical Zoom This mini PTZ camera has an optical zoom lens, allowing the user to zoom in and out during live viewing. Coupled with its pan and tilt capabilities, this camera stands out as a top pick for individuals keen on thorough surveillance of their home or business. The 2.7–13.5mm motorized zoom lens provides 5X zoom power. At its widest setting, 2.7mm, the camera covers an ultra-wide 106.9° view, and when fully zoomed in, it narrows down to a 30.6° angle. Beyond optical zoom, our PTZ cameras also have a digital zoom feature, great for blowing up an area for additional detail in the footage. It's essential to recognize the difference between optical and digital zoom. Optical zoom does actual magnification by physically adjusting the lens and can only alter the viewing angle in real-time. Digital zoom expands the image in real-time or during playback of recorded footage, which will result in pixelation. You can learn more about the difference between optical zoom and digital zoom in the AvaEye security camera system guide.
	Starlight Starlight video technology enhances the PTZ camera's performance in low-light conditions, providing color video even in dim lighting. Utilizing advanced image processing techniques and a specialized 0.003 Lux image sensor, the camera delivers superior image quality under minimal lighting. Starlight PTZ cameras are particularly suited for poorly-lit outdoor surveillance areas such as parking lots and alleyways.
	Night Vision Whether it's daytime or nighttime, the camera seamlessly toggles between color and black and white modes depending on ambient lighting. Starlight video will allow the camera to stay in color mode at lower levels of light than a regular camera. The camera's infrared LEDs provide night vision up to 330 feet, ensuring clear surveillance in complete darkness with black-and-white footage.
	Built-in Speaker and Mic For those interested in audio surveillance, the camera's built-in microphone ensures clear audio pickup, covering up to 30 feet in a quiet environment. On top of having a microphone, this camera also has a built-in speaker that can be used for two-way audio via the mobile app, PC software, or to sound out alarms. Additionally, it has audio detection that makes sure recording starts, and an alert can be sent if the camera hears an unexpected noise based on the parameters you set.
	Smart Camera We understand that your security needs are unique. This smart camera features specialized video analytics for dependable human and vehicle detection with fewer false alarms: Enter/Leave Area, Line Crossing and Intrusion Box. Plus, if you use an add-on microphone connected to the audio input, with audio detection, the camera can initiate recording and alert you when unexpected sounds occur within your set parameters.
	Power over Ethernet Connectivity Gone are the days of running multiple cables for pan-tilt-zoom cameras. Thanks to Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, you can now transfer power, data, and control commands using just one Ethernet cable, reaching up to 300 feet from your NVR or PoE switch.
	Many Ways to Control and Record You can use our free AvaEye mobile app, the AvaEye PC software, or one of our AvaEye network video recorders (NVRs) to watch and control the camera while away. Avaeye cameras offer versatile storage options. You can choose to save recordings to an AvaEye NVR, utilize the AvaEye software on your PC/Mac, or rely on an internal MicroSD card with a capacity of up to 256GB.
	NDAA Compliant Looking for NDAA-compliant cameras? The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) has, in recent times, set restrictions on the utilization of certain surveillance equipment brands in federal and military installations. This limitation also affects businesses and non-profits that benefit from federal grants or sign contracts with the military. Choosing this NDAA-compliant camera provides assurance, guaranteeing your purchase is compliant with these regulations.
	AvaEye AvaEye cameras and NVRs are designed to work really well together, making system setup easy and quick. When you use a compatible NVR, you can enjoy better video analytics and watch footage from your computer or phone. An AvaEye camera and recorder combo is a no-brainer for your home or business security needs.
