includes the following sections:

Overview

The Cisco Video Surveillance 8020 (indoor) and 8030 (indoor/outdoor) IP Cameras are high-definition,
full-functioned video endpoints with industry-leading image quality and processing power. The cameras
are capable of 5MP resolution at 30 frames per second (fps) while optimizing network usage with H.264,
H.265, or MJPEG compression. Contact closures and two-way audio allow integration with
microphones, speakers, and access control systems. With their open, standards-based design, the
cameras provide ideal platforms for integration and operation as independent devices or as part of a
Cisco video surveillance network.

True high-definition video—The cameras stream crisp and clear 5MP video at 30 fps while
maintaining low network bandwidth.

stream can be configured with individual resolution, quality, and frame-rate settings.
Day/night operation—The cameras provide true day/night functionality, and include an infrared (IR)
filter that automatically switches to night mode in low-light scenes. This function can be set to
manual, automatic, or scheduled control.
Flexible power option—The cameras support Power over Ethernet (PoE) 802.3af Class 0 for 8020
models, 802.3at Class 4 for 8030 models, and 12 VDC for both models.
Mounting options—The cameras can be installed to either a ceiling or wall.
