Does it need an internet cable?
No. Fit a nano-SIM with a data plan and it connects over the 4G mobile network. That is the point of this camera: it suits sites with no fixed internet.
What SIM and network does it use?
A nano-SIM (not included) on 4G LTE Cat 4. It supports LTE-FDD bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20 and 28, LTE-TDD bands 38, 40 and 41, and WCDMA bands 1, 5 and 8. Check your carrier’s coverage map for the site, and choose a data plan that suits how much you will stream.
Can I connect other cameras to it?
Yes. Its three 10/100 LAN ports let up to three more devices share the 4G connection. The ports are not listed as PoE, so those devices need their own power, such as the same solar system.
Does it need a power point?
It needs 12 V DC, up to 10.59 W. Use the supplied adapter on mains power, or a VIGI solar power system for off-grid sites. It does not run on PoE.
Will I get colour at night?
Yes. LightPro keeps infrared on (up to 50 m) while the scene is empty, then switches on the two white LEDs (up to 30 m) for full-colour video when a person or vehicle appears.
Where are the recordings stored?
On a microSD card of up to 512GB in the camera (not included). You watch live and play back through the VIGI app or VIGI Cloud VMS.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes, through the free VIGI app over 4G. It also works with VIGI VMS, VIGI Cloud VMS and a web browser, and supports ONVIF Profile S, G and T.
Can I talk through the camera?
Yes. It has a built-in microphone, which picks up sound within about 5 m, and a speaker for two-way talk. Events can also trigger an audible warning and flash the white light.
What does the AI detect?
People and vehicles, with intrusion, line crossing, region entering and exiting, loitering, object left behind or removed, abnormal sound and scene change. Ordinary motion detection is filtered by the human and vehicle classification, so you get fewer false alerts. It also warns you if the camera is covered or moved.
Can it go outside?
Yes. The metal housing is rated IP66 against dust and heavy rain, and works from −30 °C to 60 °C.
Which junction box or pole mount fits?
TP-Link’s Australian accessory list matches the InSight S345-4G with the VJB-305 junction box and the VMB-350 pole bracket for 70–130 mm poles.
What warranty do I get?
