D-Link DCS-6620

The D-Link DCS-6620 is 10x optical-zoom Internet camera / surveillance device geared for business owners or security officials who need the detailed coverage necessary to identify license plate numbers, people, etc.

The unit supports two codecs—MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG. The former produces lower quality but smaller file-size recordings, while the latter is larger but provides the file integrity and details suited for thorough monitoring. Also supported is two-way audio, IP access from anywhere in the world, and low-light sensitivity for enhanced nighttime surveillance. Users seeking a higher resolution but willing to sacrifice an advanced zoom should look at the similarly priced DCS-3110.
