Crystal Clear 5MP Security – 24/7 in Color
No more blurry and pixelated recordings. The TP-Link VIGI C455 delivers an impressive resolution of 2880x1620 pixels with its 5-megapixel sensor. In combination with the large F1.6 aperture and the advanced 1/2.7' CMOS sensor, it captures extremely clear and detailed images even in difficult lighting conditions. What's special: Thanks to 24h Full-Color technology, you also get vibrant color images at night, which significantly facilitates the identification of people or vehicles. This way, you won't miss any important details, no matter the time of day.
Intelligent AI Analysis: No More False Alarms
Does your old camera alarm for every cat? The VIGI C455 puts an end to that. Thanks to integrated artificial intelligence, it analyzes events in real-time and reliably distinguishes between people, vehicles, and irrelevant movements such as falling leaves or animals. Set up precise zones for area intrusion or line crossing and only receive a notification when it's truly important. This smart filtering not only makes your surveillance more efficient but also significantly less nerve-wracking. The VIGI C455 is one of the most advanced IP Cameras for demanding users.
Active Defense and Clear Two-Way Communication
This camera doesn't just watch; it actively intervenes. As soon as a predefined event is detected, the VIGI C455 can be a weatherproof outdoor camera with intercom function and alarm siren. It triggers a loud sound and a bright light alarm to immediately deter potential intruders. At the same time, you can communicate directly with people in front of the camera via the built-in microphone and speaker – whether to instruct the package delivery person or to unequivocally ask uninvited guests to leave. Security that can be heard and seen.
Robust Design for Professional Use
Designed for continuous outdoor use, the VIGI C455 is housed in a durable metal casing with IP67 certification. This means it is completely protected against dust and strong water jets and can withstand even extreme temperatures from -30 °C to 60 °C. Installation is incredibly flexible thanks to dual Power Supply options: Use a single Network cable for data and power via Power over Ethernet (PoE) in conjunction with a compatible Ethernet Switch, or opt for a classic 12V DC power adapter. ONVIF compatibility also ensures seamless integration into existing third-party systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the TP-Link VIGI C455 also be operated without an NVR?
Yes, the camera can be operated independently. It has a microSD card slot for up to 256 GB of storage, where recordings can be saved directly. Access to live images and recordings is then done via the TP-Link VIGI App or the VMS software on a PC.
Is the camera suitable for outdoor use?
Absolutely. The VIGI C455 has a robust metal housing and is IP67 certified. This means it is completely dustproof and protected against strong jets of water and temporary immersion, making it ideal for outdoor use in any weather.
Does the camera require a separate power supply?
Not necessarily. The camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), (802.3af/at). If you connect it to a PoE-enabled switch or NVR, data and power are transmitted via a single Ethernet Cable. Alternatively, it can also be operated with a separate 12V DC power supply.
What does "24h Full-Color" mean?
Thanks to a highly sensitive sensor and integrated white light LEDs, the camera can capture color images even in very low ambient light, instead of switching to the usual black-and-white night vision mode. This provides significantly more detail at night and facilitates identification.
What are the advantages of H.265+ compression?
H.265+ is a highly advanced video codec that drastically reduces the file size of video recordings compared to older standards like H.264, without visibly compromising image quality. This significantly saves storage space on the microSD card or NVR.
Does the camera support integration into third-party systems?
Yes, the camera is ONVIF compliant (Profiles S, G, T). This is an open industry standard that ensures compatibility with a variety of NVRs and video management systems from different manufacturers.
