Key Features

• Model Name: VIGI C250 (available with fixed lens options, commonly 2.8 mm or 4 mm, e.g., C250(2.8MM) or C250(4MM)) Camera Resolution: 5MP (Max. Resolution: 2880 x 1620 pixels) Image Sensor: 1/2.7” Progressive Scan CMOS Lens: Fixed Focal Lens (2.8 mm or 4 mm focal length options), F1.6 aperture. 2.8 mm FOV: Horizontal: 109°, Vertical: 57°, Diagonal: 128° (Wider coverage) 4 mm FOV: Horizontal: 90°, Vertical: 48°, Diagonal: 107° (Standard view) Night Vision: Features both IR LEDs (30m range) and White LEDs (30m range). The white LEDs enable 24-hour full-color imaging even in extremely low light conditions (down to 0 Lux with illuminators), providing vibrant and detailed footage day and night. Video Compression: H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264, offering highly efficient storage and bandwidth usage, significantly reducing storage costs and network load. Audio: Built-in microphone (records within approximately a 15-ft / 5m radius) and built-in speaker for two-way audio communication, allowing you to listen in and speak through the camera. Storage: Supports local storage via a MicroSD card slot (up to 256 GB, card not included). Connectivity: Wired Ethernet (1 RJ45 10/100M Self-Adaptive Ethernet Port) with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support (802.3af/at), simplifying installation as it carries both power and data over a single cable. It is not Wi-Fi enabled. Durability: IP67 weatherproof rating (resistant to dust and water immersion) and IK10 vandal-proof rating (resistant to significant impact), making it suitable for challenging outdoor environments and areas prone to vandalism. Form Factor: Dome style, designed for ceiling mounting with flexible angle adjustments (Pan: 0° to 360°, Tilt: 0° to 85°). Smart Detection (Deep Learning Functions): Advanced intelligent features for accurate alerts and efficient searching: Human & Vehicle Classification: Distinguishes humans and vehicles from other objects, reducing false alarms. Intrusion Detection, Line-Crossing Detection, Region Entering/Exiting Detection, Object Abandoned/Removal Detection, Loitering Detection, Abnormal Sound Detection, Scene Change Detection, Motion Detection (enhanced with Human & Vehicle Classification), Camera Tampering Detection. Active Defense: Can trigger audible warnings (via built-in speaker) and white light flashing to actively deter intruders in real-time. Supports user-created custom voice audio for warnings. Image Enhancement: True WDR (120dB) for balanced images in high-contrast lighting, 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction), BLC (Backlight Compensation), HLC (Highlight Compensation), Smart IR. Management: Can be managed via TP-Link's VIGI App, VIGI Security Manager (software), Web UI, VIGI NVRs, and VIGI Cloud VMS. Operating Temperature: -30°C to 60°C (-22°F to 140°F). Material: Metal housing (though some sources mention plastic for the housing, the official TP-Link and most reseller sites indicate metal for durability).
