Audio. This administration guide covers two models.
PVC2300 Business Internet Video Camera with Audio and PoE (Power over
Ethernet)

For the purpose of this administration guide, whenever a feature applies to both

The Cisco camera surveillance solutions are high quality solutions which can be
optimized for many different applications. The box-type form factor allows these
cameras to be used as-is or put inside an outdoor enclosure for interior or exterior
applications. The cameras use removable CS-mount lenses and can be
customized with Zoom, Wide-Angled, Vari-focal, Auto-Iris (DC type), or other type
of lenses as required for the specific application.
The PVC2300 provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionality that facilitates
installation of the PVC2300 in places out of reach of a power outlet.
The cameras can be remotely controlled through an RS-485 interface and
mounted on any PT (pan/tilt) base that supports Pelco-D protocol. The camera
supports 2 input and 2 output connectors which can be used for connecting to an
alarm panel, siren, PIR, smoke detectors, light switch (on/off), door opener, etc.
The cameras incorporate a high quality progressive scan CCD sensor, delivering
good quality undistorted video. The sensor used in the cameras has low light
sensitivity capability. This means that video can be viewed when very low light
(near darkness) is present. Additionally, the cameras incorporate an IR Cut Filter
switcher which, when used with a separate IR lamp, allows for viewing of video in
total darkness.
