Crystal Clear 2.5K Images – Day and Color at Night
Security begins with a clear image. The Xiaomi Outdoor Camera CW300 sets new standards here. With its 4-megapixel sensor and ultra-high 2.5K resolution (2560x1440), you see every detail in impressive sharpness. The large f/1.6 aperture captures maximum information even in low light. The real highlight is the intelligent Surveillance Camera with Color Night Vision. In darkness, infrared LEDs provide clear black-and-white vision. As soon as the camera detects human movement, the white light spotlights activate, and you get a full-color recording – crucial for clearly identifying people or vehicles.
360° All-Round View: The Camera That Thinks and Tracks
Forget dead spots. Thanks to the motorized dual gimbal, you can pan the camera 350° horizontally and tilt it 108° vertically. The result is seamless 360° surveillance, which you conveniently control via app. But the CW300 can do even more: The integrated AI algorithm recognizes human silhouettes and automatically starts tracking. The camera autonomously follows the person and keeps them in the frame, while you immediately receive a notification on your phone. This intelligent function works completely locally on the device and does not require an expensive cloud subscription.
Reliable in Any Weather: IP66 Protection and Dual Connection
An outdoor camera must withstand the elements. The CW300 is IP66 certified, making it completely protected against dust and strong water jets. Whether heavy rain, snowstorm, or summer heat – with an operating temperature range of -30°C to 60°C, it works reliably all year round. You also have a choice for Network connection: Use the flexibility of 2.4 GHz WiFi or rely on the maximum stability of a wired connection via the RJ45 Ethernet port. This Outdoor IP Camera with App is one of the most flexible and robust solutions in the IP Cameras category.
Active Deterrence and Encrypted Security for Your Home
The CW300 is not just a passive observer, but an active guardian. If it detects an intruder in the surveillance zone, it triggers a loud acoustic alarm and activates the flashing LED spotlights to immediately scare away unwanted guests. Your privacy and data are protected at all times. The dedicated MJA1 security chip ensures hardware-level encryption of communication with an exclusive private key. All data transmission is secured, and cloud data is additionally encrypted with AES-128.
