A network or IP (Internet Protocol) camera is similar in form and function to an analogue surveillance camera in that it captures and sends live video streams. The difference being network cameras transport live video streams via digital packets across an IP network such as a LAN (Local Area Network) or the Internet. Because network cameras are on an IP network, the video streams can be accessed and stored remotely. This enables users to view and/or manage the network camera using a standard Web browser or video management software from different locations, giving businesses increased flexibility.
