PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TP-Link InSight S245 4MP Full-Color Dome Network Camera, 4mm Lens (InSight S245(4mm)) - 5 Years Local Warranty
The InSight S245 is TP-Link's VIGI 4MP full-colour dome camera: 2688x1520 recording, an F1.6 lens, 120 dB true WDR, two-way audio, a microSD slot up to 512 GB and People & Vehicle Analytics, in a metal housing rated IP67 and IK10. This listing is the 4 mm lens version, which narrows the view to about 80 degrees horizontal and extends the published DORI distances, suiting entrances, counters, corridors and lift lobbies where faces need to be identified further from the camera.
4 mm Lens for Longer Detection and Identification
The fixed 4 mm F1.6 lens gives a field of view of 80.4 degrees horizontal, 41.8 degrees vertical and 98.7 degrees diagonal on hardware V1, and 81, 43.9 and 96.39 degrees on V1.20. TP-Link publishes DORI distances for this lens of detect 80 m, observe 33 m, recognise 16 m and identify 8 m. Maximum resolution is 2688x1520 at up to 25 fps (50 Hz) or 30 fps (60 Hz), with main-stream bit rates up to 6 Mbps.
People and Vehicle Analytics for Faster Post-Event Search
With VIGI-specified software, People & Vehicle Analytics lets operators search and filter recorded footage for a person or vehicle of interest by attributes, cutting the time spent scrubbing through video after an incident. On the camera itself, motion detection is enhanced with human and vehicle classification, and smart events include intrusion, line-crossing, region entering and exiting, object abandoned and removed, loitering, people and vehicle detection, abnormal sound and scene change detection.
Active Defence and Two-Way Audio
A built-in microphone (5 m pickup radius) and speaker provide two-way audio, and alarm linkage includes Active Defence sound and light alarms alongside memory-card recording, FTP upload, push notifications, email and alarm-server output. That lets the camera challenge an intruder or speak to a visitor directly rather than only recording the event.
120 dB True WDR and Smart Video Enhancement
True WDR at 120 dB blends exposures so bright doorways and windows and darker interiors stay properly exposed in the same frame; TP-Link notes only DWDR is available when People & Vehicle Analytics is enabled. Smart IR, 3D DNR and white balance complete the processing chain, with two IR LEDs and two white LEDs reaching 30 m for infrared or full-colour night footage and 0 lux minimum illumination with the illuminators on.
On-Board microSD, PoE and a Vandal-Resistant Metal Dome
A built-in slot takes a microSD card up to 512 GB (not included), so the camera can record locally or keep recording if the link to the NVR drops. Power is 802.3af/at PoE (class 0, max 12.52 W) or 12 V DC (max 10.54 W). The metal housing is rated IP67 waterproof and IK10 vandal-proof and specified for -30 to 60 degrees C.
Ideal For
Singapore offices, retail stores, F&B outlets, schools, clinics and condominium common areas that need 4MP colour coverage of entrances, counters and corridors with longer identification distance, local microSD recording and forensic search on a VIGI system. Supplied by SourceIT with local Singapore warranty, GST invoice and project pricing on request.

Frequently Asked Questions — InSight S245(4mm)
Does the S245 need a VIGI recorder?
No. It can record to a microSD card of up to 512 GB on its own and be viewed in the VIGI App. A VIGI NVR is recommended for continuous recording, longer retention and multi-camera playback, and People & Vehicle Analytics requires VIGI specified software.
Should I choose the 4 mm or 2.8 mm lens?
The 4 mm lens gives about an 80° horizontal view with longer published distances (detect 80 m, identify 8 m). The 2.8 mm lens widens the view to 100° for overall room coverage, with detect 64 m and identify 6 m.
