Q-See outdoor cameras are built to withstand all the elements of nature. Rain, snow or hot sun will not deter the camera from sending clear video . The design of the camera incorporates a weatherproof metal casing with an "O" ring seal to keep the high resolution lens and the internal parts safe from nature. With the 11 bright Infra Red LEDs that light up at night, the camera will give black and white night vision for upto 30 ft. in total darkness.With the 60-ft. cable that is included in the package, installing the camera is a breeze. Use the camera to monitor an outdoor area or to watch areas where children play. Bird-watching and monitoring animals without intruding on them are all possible with the Q-See outdoor cameras. With additional cable you can even put the camera at a very long distance and still get clear video feeds. For Product Questions contact Q-SEE: (877) 998-3440 or cs@dpsi-usa.com
