With 720p (HD) H.264 streaming in 16:9 aspect ratio, the new i-pro SmartHD technology provides the most advanced IP video surveillance solution by sharpening images, even in low-light levels, ensuring quality image capture to enhance identification. The new units feature high-definition picture quality employing Panasonic's new UniPhier LSI processor, bandwidth and energy efficiency, as well as simple installation, set-up and operation.

The new line of i-Pro H.264 megapixel network cameras also offer day/night operation, high sensitivity with automatic calibration for detailed imaging, and progressive scan to ensure clear images without motion blur and no tearing. The new cameras support multiple video streams (H.264/MPEG-4/JPEG) and power over Ethernet (PoE, IEEE 802.3af). Additional features of both new camera series include two-way audio, analog video output and support for the IPv4/IPv6 network protocol.
