2.4GHz Wireless Line-of-Sight Required
If you've been in an airport, coffee shop, library or hotel recently, chances are you've been right in the middle of a wireless network. Many people also use wireless networking, also called WiFi or 802.11 networking, to connect their computers at home, and an increasing number of cities use the technology to provide free or low-cost Internet access to residents.

The next evolutionary stage for 802.11 wireless is to utilize it for video. IP based cameras, unlike traditional analog cameras, can take advantage of pre-existing Wi-Fi networks to transmitt video wirelessly to the end user. Webcamproshop provides a complete Wi-Fi solution for environments without Wi-Fi enabled. For environments with pre-existing Wi-Fi, we also offer a solution that is compatible with stardard AP technology on the market. Unlike 900MHz, 2.4GHz requires "line of sight" from one point to the next. Each wireless link can have a range of up to 3 miles.

IP cameras on a 2.4GHz wireless link will approximately achieved 12-20 fps @ 320x240 resolution and 8-12fps @ 640x480 resolution. 1.3 to 5.0 Mega-pixel cameras can have varying rates of 1-5fps.
