Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the DCS-6045L PowerLine HD Day/Night Cloud Camera. The DCS-6045L is a versatile and
unique solution for your small office or home. Unlike a standard webcam, the DCS-6045L does away with traditional wired or
wireless connections and instead uses your existing electrical wiring. The DCS-6045L plugs directly into a power outlet, and
does not require any additional cables. Designed to be used with any D-Link PowerLine adapter, which turns every power outlet
into a possible network connection to access digital media devices, game consoles, print servers, computers, and network
storage devices throughout your home. A complete system with a built-in CPU and web server, the DCS-6045L transmits high
quality video images for round-the-clock security and surveillance. The IR LED provides around the clock surveillance regardless
of the lighting conditions.
The DCS-6045L is a standalone surveillance camera that requires no special hardware or software, and can run independently
even without a PC. Send e-mail notifications with snapshots or video clips whenever motion or sound is detected using just
the DCS-6045L and an Internet connection. You can customize areas of the video to monitor for motion to keep watch over
entry ways, and you can set volume limits to detect when a loud sound is picked up by the camera. Night time monitoring is
possible with the built-in infrared LEDs which allow for night time viewing of up to 6 meters (19.6 feet), enabling round-the-
clock monitoring of a home or small office.
Built mydlink™ support DCS-6045L makes it easier and more convenient for you to look after your family, home, or office
environment. With a mydlink service enabled camera, you can stay connected to everything you love from anywhere, anytime.
The mydlink service can be accessed using a web browser, and there is also an optional downloadable mydlink app that allows
users to have a better experience on their mobile devices. With the mydlink app, you can quickly and easily view your camera
feed from anywhere using a Wi-Fi, 3G, or 4G connection.
