Razor-sharp 4MP resolution: No detail escapes you
The TP-Link VIGI C440 delivers images that leave nothing to be desired. With its high-resolution 4-megapixel sensor (2560 x 1440 pixels), you capture every detail in razor-sharp clarity. Whether it's about recognizing faces, license plates, or other important features – this camera provides clarity where Others only deliver pixelated mush. Thanks to digital WDR and 3D noise reduction, recordings are always balanced and clear, even in difficult lighting conditions.
Night turns into day: Brilliant color images around the clock
Forget grainy black-and-white images. The VIGI C440 is a true outdoor surveillance camera with color night vision. Thanks to the highly sensitive sensor, the large F1.6 aperture, and the integrated spotlight LEDs, you can see in vivid colors even in absolute darkness. This massively increases the detection rate of details such as clothing or car colors and gives you a decisive plus in security, 24 hours a day.
Intelligent surveillance that thinks along: Smart alarms instead of false alarms
This camera is more than just an eye. Thanks to integrated AI algorithms, it is a weatherproof outdoor camera with person detection. It can intelligently distinguish between people, vehicles, and irrelevant movements such as falling leaves or animals. Define zones or virtual lines and only receive a notification on your smartphone when something important actually happens. This minimizes false alarms and lets you sleep soundly.
Maximum flexibility during installation: PoE & 12V DC
The VIGI C440 adapts to your circumstances. The simplest installation method is Power over Ethernet (PoE). This only requires a single Network cable that ensures both data transmission and Power Supply. For this, you only need a PoE-enabled switch or one of the separately available PoE Injectors / Power Supplies. Alternatively, you can also operate the camera conventionally via a 12V DC power adapter. As part of the professional TP-Link VIGI ecosystem, it can be seamlessly integrated into existing setups.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the TP-Link VIGI C440 also be operated without an NVR (Network Video Recorder)?
Yes, the camera can operate completely autonomously. It features a microSD card slot for cards up to 256 GB, where recordings can be stored locally. Access to live images and recordings is then conveniently done via the VIGI App or PC software.
What does '24h Full-Color' mean and how does it work?
24h Full-Color means that the camera can record color images even in very low light or complete darkness. This is achieved through a highly sensitive image sensor, a large F1.6 aperture, and two integrated white light LEDs that illuminate the scene when needed.
Is the camera suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the camera is certified with protection class IP67. This means it is completely dustproof and can withstand temporary submersion in water, making it ideal for outdoor use in rain, snow, and other weather conditions.
What is the difference between H.265 and H.265+ Smart Coding?
H.265 is a modern video compression standard. H.265+ is a version optimized by TP-Link that dynamically adjusts the compression rate to the image content. In scenes with little movement, the bitrate is reduced more significantly than in action-packed moments. This leads to even higher efficiency in storage usage.
Does the VIGI C440 support human and vehicle detection?
Yes, the camera can intelligently distinguish between people, vehicles, and other moving objects to increase the accuracy of alarm messages through Human & Vehicle Classification.
Do I need a special router for the PoE function?
You need either a Network Switch or an NVR with integrated PoE ports (according to IEEE 802.3af/at standard) or a separate PoE Injector. A standard router typically does not provide power over the Ethernet ports.
