VIGI C440(2.8MM) specification sheet

Overview:

The TP-Link VIGI C440 is a 4MP Full-Color Turret Network Camera designed to provide clear, detailed surveillance footage around the clock. Its 4MP resolution captures more detail, while the large-aperture lens, high-sensitivity sensor, and supplemental lighting deliver full-color monitoring even in very dark conditions. Human and vehicle classification helps distinguish people and vehicles from other objects for more accurate event notifications. Smart detection identifies abnormal events such as area intrusion and line crossing, while active defense can warn potential intruders using sound and light. Two-way audio enables voice communication through the camera, and Smart IR, WDR, 3D DNR, and night vision technologies improve image quality in challenging lighting conditions. H.265+ compression reduces video file sizes while helping maintain image quality, lowering storage requirements and network load. Corridor Mode supports monitoring of long and narrow areas, while flexible management is available through the web interface, NVR interface, VIGI app, and VIGI Security Manager. Local and onboard storage are supported, with a microSD card capacity of up to 256GB.

Description:

The TP-Link VIGI C440 4MP Full-Color Turret Network Camera is a versatile surveillance solution for homes, offices, shops, warehouses, commercial properties, and other areas requiring reliable network video monitoring. The 2.8mm lens provides a broad viewing perspective, while the 4MP sensor delivers 2560 x 1440 resolution for detailed footage.

Full-color monitoring is available 24 hours a day, supported by the camera's high-sensitivity sensor and built-in white LEDs. The combination of infrared and white LED illumination provides up to 30m lighting range, helping maintain useful visibility in low-light and nighttime environments.

The camera also includes intelligent detection capabilities that can help reduce unnecessary alerts. Human and vehicle classification allows the system to focus on relevant activity, while configurable detection rules can identify events such as intrusion, line crossing, region entry, region exit, abandoned objects, and object removal.

For additional security, active defense can use the camera's built-in speaker and lighting to provide audible and visual warnings when abnormal activity is detected. Two-way audio also allows users to communicate remotely through the built-in microphone and speaker.

Features:

Clear 4MP Full-Color Surveillance
The VIGI C440 provides up to 2560 x 1440 resolution, delivering detailed video for everyday security monitoring. Full-color imaging is supported in dark environments using the camera's high-sensitivity sensor, large-aperture 2.8mm lens, and supplemental lighting.

Image enhancement technologies help maintain usable footage when lighting conditions are difficult:

• Smart IR helps manage infrared illumination and reduce overexposure.
• WDR helps balance bright and dark areas within the same scene.
• 3D DNR helps reduce image noise, particularly in low-light conditions.
• HLC and BLC help improve image visibility in challenging lighting situations.
• SmartIR supports more controlled nighttime illumination.

Intelligent Human and Vehicle Detection
Built-in intelligent processing can distinguish humans and vehicles from other moving objects. This helps improve event accuracy and allows monitoring rules to be configured according to the requirements of the installation.

Supported detection functions include:

• Intrusion detection
• Line-crossing detection
• Region entering detection
• Region exiting detection
• Abandoned object detection
• Object removal detection

These functions can help security systems focus on activity that matters rather than generating unnecessary alerts for every movement in the camera's field of view.

Active Defense and Two-Way Audio
The VIGI C440 includes active defense capabilities that can provide sound and light warnings when abnormal activity is detected. This can help deter potential intruders before they progress further into a monitored area.

With its built-in microphone and speaker, the camera also supports two-way audio. Users can listen to activity around the camera and communicate remotely when required.

Efficient Video Storage and Network Performance
H.265+ video compression reduces the amount of storage space and network bandwidth required for surveillance footage while maintaining useful image quality. This makes the camera suitable for installations where recording capacity and network efficiency are important considerations.

The camera supports onboard microSD storage of up to 256GB, providing an option for local recording without relying entirely on an NVR.

Flexible Installation and Management
The VIGI C440 can be managed through multiple platforms, giving installers and users flexibility when setting up and monitoring their security system. Supported management options include the web UI, NVR UI, VIGI app, and VIGI Security Manager.

The camera supports PoE as well as 12V DC power, making it suitable for different network installation requirements. ONVIF compatibility also helps integrate the camera with compatible third-party surveillance equipment.

Corridor Mode for Narrow Areas
Corridor Mode changes the viewing orientation from the standard 16:9 format to 9:16 . This is useful when monitoring locations such as hallways, aisles, corridors, entrances, and other long or narrow spaces where a vertical viewing perspective can make better use of the available image area.
