IP Camera Physical Details
The IP camera includes a reset button, built-in microphone, status LEDs, several ports for connecting
external devices, and two threaded mounting holes, one on the bottom and one on the top.
Note The IP camera casing serves as a heatsink for the internal electronics and may be warm to the touch. This
is normal and indicates that the heatsink property of the casing is working as designed.
