What Does IP Camera Mean?
An IP camera is a video camera that is networked over a Fast Ethernet connection. The IP camera sends its signals to the main server or computer screen via an Internet or network link. It is mostly used in IP surveillance, closed-circuit television (CCTV) and digital videography. IP cameras are widely replacing analog cameras due to their digital zoom and remote surveillance options over the Internet.
