It is important to know

When choosing a security camera like the TP-Link VIGI C340 4MP QHD, it's crucial to understand how each technical feature translates into the actual user experience. The most important practical decision is how good the coverage, reliability, and installation options are for your usage and environment. Pay special attention to the real-world experience, where the combination of resolution, connection type, and PoE power usage matters most.

• Wired connection and PoE power supply provide stable operation and reduce the possibility of interruptions, but require tidy wiring before installation.
• 4MP resolution allows for a higher level of detail, which is especially useful for recognizing people or monitoring larger areas, but it also creates higher demands on data throughput and storage space.
• Color night vision means better identification of subjects in poor lighting conditions, but actual effectiveness also depends on the environment - e.g. distance and lighting.
• The camera is not suitable for locations where completely wireless surveillance is essential or where there is no possibility of a wired connection and constant electricity (as it does not support battery or solar power).
