Linksys, a Division of Cisco Systems, announced the immediate availability of
the Linksys Wireless-G Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) Internet Camera with Audio (WVC200).
The new PTZ Internet Camera, part of the Linksys Business Series of products,
can send live video and audio through the Internet to be seen and heard through
a web browser anywhere in the world making for simple access for mobile workers
or remote users.
Unlike standard "web cams" requiring an attached PC, the PTZ Internet Camera
contains its own IP address, so businesses can easily connect it to an existing
Ethernet or Wireless network. The WVC200 comes equipped with a LCD screen on the
front of the camera that displays the IP address so multiple cameras can be
easily managed.
"We've designed a camera that provides small businesses the tool they need to
monitor their office during businesses hours or while they are away," said
Sanjeev Gupta, Linksys regional sales director for Asia. "The camera can be
accessed over the internet, enabling the office to be remotely monitored. Users
can be alerted by email or phone when unexpected movement has occurred after
hours, eliminating the need to actively monitor the camera. It's an ideal
solution for providing peace of mind at the price small business budgets can
afford."
