Frequently Asked Questions
Does the VIGI C440-W support both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi?
Yes. The C440-W features dual-band 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi, supporting both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks for flexible placement and a more stable wireless connection.
Can this camera be used outdoors?
The C440-W is primarily designed for indoor use. Check the product’s IP rating before installing in exposed outdoor locations. For dedicated outdoor wireless coverage, consider the VIGI C340-W or C540-4G.
Does it work without a VIGI NVR?
Yes. The C440-W can be managed independently via the VIGI mobile app with local microSD recording. A VIGI NVR is optional but recommended for multi-camera installations and centralised storage.
Can I add this camera to an existing wired VIGI NVR system?
Yes. VIGI NVRs support a mix of wired and wireless cameras. The C440-W connects to the same VIGI ecosystem via Wi-Fi and appears alongside wired cameras in the VIGI app and NVR interface.
What smart detection events does it support?
The C440-W detects motion, area intrusion, line-crossing, and video tampering. When an event is triggered, it sends a push notification to the VIGI app and can activate the built-in sound and light alarm.
