TP-LINK Tapo C501GW Outdoor Surveillance Camera, 4G/LTE

The Tapo C501GW is the perfect choice for locations where Wi-Fi connection is not always available. This outdoor smart camera connects via the 4G LTE network, making it ideal for places such as farms, holiday homes, and storage facilities that require a reliable and independent surveillance solution. The camera's wide 360° horizontal and 130° vertical mobility provides a comprehensive view, ensuring no area goes unmonitored. Additionally, you can use free AI-based detection that distinguishes people, animals, and vehicles, sending notifications directly to the Tapo app.

1080P Full HD resolution and starlight night vision ensure clear and vivid images even in low light, up to 20 meters away. IP66 weather resistance guarantees reliable operation in challenging weather conditions, and audio and light alarms enable effective deterrence of intruders. You can save important moments locally on a microSD card (support up to 512 GB) or utilize the Tapo Care cloud service for long-term storage.

Note, the Tapo C501GW requires a SIM card and subscription to operate.
