△ Tile encoding is automatically enabled in H.265 mode when the horizontal resolution exceeds 2688. If a third-party NVR doesn't support tile encoding, it cannot enable H.265 mode. TP-Link recommends using a VIGI NVR with VIGI cameras.
TP-Link's page states the microphone range two ways: the feature text says a 15-ft radius, while the specification table says 16.4 ft (5 m). Both figures are shown as published.
