Corridor Mode
This camera has Corridor Mode.
Corridor mode allows you to flip the image on its side so that you can change the 16x9 ratio to 9x16. This is advantageous in the case of hallways, side yards, or corridors (hence the name) where the extra space vertical space is needed and the extra horizontal space would only show you more wall or fence area. To use corridor mode, install the camera with the lens pointed 90 degrees from center and then enable the corridor mode on via our software.

ONVIF Conformant
This camera meets ONVIF compliance for both the S and G profiles.
ONVIF is an open industry standard encoding language for the interface of IP-based physical security products.

Bitrate - 2MP
At 2MP and 60 FPS, while recording at H.265, this camera should use 6Mbps of the NVR's bitrate budget. (With H.264, it should use 10Mbps).
