Overview
VIVOTEK VC8201 is a split-type camera system, which the camera unit and the video core are
separated. With the separated design, it enables the camera unit to be much smaller, making in-
stallation easier as well as blending in decoration easily. In addition, the VC8201 can connect up
to two 5-Megapixel camera units with 8-meter long cables, dramatically saving installation effort.
The camera units CU8131 and CU8171 are designed as recessed dome type, in order to t in
the decoration. The CU8131 is equipped with a 1MP sensor and features WDR Pro technology,
allowing the camera to capture clear images with high-contrast scenes. The CU8171 is built
with a 5MP sensor and sheye lens to provide a 360° surround view without blind spots. The
VC8201 can support different combinations of two camera units, making the installation more
exible.
Incorporating a number of advanced features of VIVOTEK cameras, including 3DNR, tamper
detection, 802.3af compliant PoE, SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot, and VIVOTEK’s 32-channel re-
cording software, the VC8201 is the best solution of indoor video surveillance.
