Features and Functions

The RC845 is an indoor day/night camera with FHD resolution and 802.11ac Wi-Fi connectivity intended for use with both ADT Control and Pulse.

• Standalone Design. The camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU and video encoder. It requires only a power source and a connection to the network (Customer router for Control or ADT Pulse gateway).
• Dual Video Support. The RC845 supports H.264 and MJEPG video compression.
• Day/Night Switch. With the day/night switching feature, you can view and record images even at night.
• IR LED Support. The two infrared LEDs can provide illumination for up to 5 meters/16 feet, providing superior video quality under low-light conditions.
• Supports both Soft AP and WPS. Soft AP connectivity is used on the Control platform. Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) uses a push button to connect to the Pulse platform.
  
• Wireless Network. The RC845 is connected to the network wirelessly.
• Two-Way Audio. The RC845 has a speaker and microphone for two-way conversations and echo cancellation. Note: The OC845 and the RC845 have built in microphones and speakers. The customer initiates the call to the camera from the app. The caller only hears the audio through the app, but the recipient hears the caller and responds through the camera.
