ACTi ACM-4200 Megapixel Demo Video Clip – now online
ACTi ACM-4200 is a great value megapixel IP camera, absolutely ideal for indoor applications for schools, offices and retail shops.
Don’t take our word for it check out the image quality from this budget-priced 1.3 megapixel camera in our video gallery.
A unique feature, compared to similar cameras in this price range, is the ability to change the lens – you can fit a replacement lens to give you exactly the field of view that you need to cover (the more closely you clip your field of view to the area you are actually interested in, the greater the number of pixels concentrated on that area, the better the delivered video resolution when you need to review recordings).
Don’t forget that ACTi offer their NVR Enterprise video recording software free of charge for use with up to 16 of their cameras.
As always, we look forward to your comments and feedback:

Is there any solution to power up this cameras (ACM-4200/ACM-4000) over ethernet cabel

The ACTi ACM-4000 and ACM-4200 were amongst the first ACTi IP camera models made available in the UK, neither is POE enabled, both take a 3.3V DC power supply. It would be possible to supply them via the data cable using Power Over Ethernet, but only by using a suitable Active Splitter device adjacent to the camera. This splitter would need to provide 3.3V DC via the correct size barrel plug to connect to the camera.
The ACTi ACM-4201 is a little dearer but is POE enabled, so can accept power via the data cable without the need for a splitter, and is therefore probably the best option if you want to use POE.
