Summary:A network camera consists of a computer, video server, network interface card, surveillance pan-tilt unit and controller, operating system, and web server software. Consequently, there is no need for an additional PC or software; simply connecting the power supply and a LAN cable allows for remote video viewing. However, since a standard webcam lacks an internal server and relies on the user's PC operating system, it falls short in terms of performance areas such as security and image quality.
