D-Link DCS-4705E Vigilance 5MP Outdoor PoE Security Camera with 30m Night Vision
The D-Link DCS-4705E Vigilance is a professional-grade 5-megapixel outdoor security camera designed for enterprise surveillance applications. With its IP66-rated weatherproof housing, 30-metre infrared night vision, and H.265 video compression, this camera delivers exceptional performance for monitoring commercial properties, warehouses, car parks, and building perimeters 24/7, in all Australian weather conditions.
Key Features
-
5-Megapixel High Resolution: Captures crisp, detailed video up to 2592 × 1920 pixels for superior image quality
-
30m IR Night Vision: Built-in infrared LED illuminators ensure clear video even in complete darkness
-
IP66 Weatherproof: Rugged housing protects against dust and water, operating in temperatures from -30°C to 50°C
-
H.265 Video Compression: Reduces bandwidth and storage requirements without compromising quality
-
Power over Ethernet (PoE): 802.3af-compliant PoE simplifies installation with a single cable for power and data
-
Wide Dynamic Range (WDR): Delivers balanced video in challenging lighting conditions with backlit subjects
Superior Image Quality Day and Night
Incorporating a high-sensitivity 1/2.5" progressive scan CMOS sensor, the DCS-4705E delivers outstanding performance in low-light conditions with vibrant colour detail. The 3D noise reduction feature dramatically reduces image noise in low light, improving both image quality and compression efficiency. The IR-cut filter automatically adjusts based on lighting conditions, while the built-in IR LED illuminators provide a 30-metre range, making this camera ideal for 24-hour surveillance in Australian commercial environments.
Advanced Video Compression & Bandwidth Efficiency
The DCS-4705E supports H.265, H.264, and MJPEG codecs for real-time video compression, with three separate streaming profiles for simultaneous viewing and recording. H.265 (HEVC) compression reduces bandwidth usage by up to 50% compared to H.264, making it perfect for multi-camera installations with limited network capacity. Maximum frame rate of 30 fps ensures smooth video playback.
Intelligent Event Management & Detection
The camera features comprehensive motion detection and event management capabilities. Configure email alerts with snapshots when motion is detected, set customised detection zones, and create time-based recording schedules. The camera supports privacy masking for up to three rectangular areas and includes digital zoom up to 10× for detailed examination of recorded footage.
Professional Installation & Connectivity
With IEEE 802.3af PoE support, the DCS-4705E requires just a single Ethernet cable for both power and network connectivity, eliminating the need for separate power adapters and simplifying installation. The camera also supports optional 12V DC power (adapter not included). The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface ensures reliable network connectivity, while ONVIF compliance guarantees compatibility with third-party video management systems.
Weatherproof Design for Australian Conditions
The IP66-certified housing completely protects the camera from dust and water jets, making it suitable for harsh outdoor Australian environments. The camera operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -30°C to 50°C, with included cable waterproofing connectors and a rubber power connector plug ensuring secure, weather-resistant connections. The adjustable mounting bracket allows for flexible positioning and angle adjustment.
Free Surveillance Management Software
Every DCS-4705E includes D-ViewCam video management software, allowing you to view, manage, and record from up to 64 network cameras on a single computer from a central location. The software supports scheduled recording, motion-triggered events, and multi-camera live view. Access your cameras remotely via the D-ViewCam Mobile app for iOS and Android, keeping you connected to your surveillance system from anywhere in Australia.
