Outdoor needs IP65+ (withstands direct rain). Indoor can be IP20 — saves ~30% on price.
2K (4MP) = balanced standard. 4K (8MP) = for digital zoom in recordings or large coverage areas. 1080p = small spaces only.
PoE = one cable for power + data, maximum reliability. Wi-Fi = simpler but signal-dependent. We recommend PoE for outdoor.
Cloud (IMOU Protect) = monthly subscription, access from anywhere. Local (NVR + HDD) = no recurring cost, full control. We carry both.
