Beyond standard colour night vision, the C450 adds AI-powered People \u0026amp; Vehicle Analytics for rapid forensic search, Corridor Mode for portrait-orientation monitoring, two-way audio, active defence, and local SD card storage up to 256GB.

Vehicle Analytics for forensic search by attributes (gender, clothing, vehicle colour\/type), and a larger 256GB SD card capacity (vs unspecified on the C440). Both offer 24\/7 full-colour night vision, smart detection, active defence, two-way audio, and Corridor Mode. Choose the C450 for commercial installations where post-incident investigation speed and higher resolution are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is People \u0026amp; Vehicle Analytics and how does it help?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeople \u0026amp; Vehicle Analytics allows you to search recorded footage by specific attributes rather than scrubbing through hours of video. For people, you can filter by gender, hair length, and clothing colour\/type. For vehicles, you can filter by vehicle colour and type. This dramatically reduces the time needed to locate a specific person or vehicle in footage after an incident — a significant advantage for retail loss prevention and commercial security investigations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the C450 work without an NVR?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The VIGI C450 has an onboard microSD card slot supporting up to 256GB for local recording, allowing it to operate as a standalone camera without an NVR. It can be managed directly via the VIGI app or VIGI Security Manager. For multi-camera installations with centralised recording, playback, and AI analytics, a VIGI NVR is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the 2.8mm and 4mm lens variants?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2.8mm lens (this model) provides a wider field of view — ideal for covering large areas at close to medium range such as car parks, open rooms, and building entrances. The 4mm lens provides a slightly narrower, longer-range view better suited for driveways, corridors, and medium-distance monitoring where more detail at distance is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The VIGI C450 is rated for outdoor use. For permanent outdoor installation in Australian conditions, mount in a sheltered position where possible to protect the spotlight LEDs and maximise longevity. Check the product's IP rating for specific weatherproofing details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat NVR is recommended for this camera?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TP-Link VIGI NVR1008H-8P is ideal for small installations — 8 PoE+ ports, Plug \u0026amp; Play auto-detection of VIGI cameras, and 4K HDMI output. For larger installations requiring AI analytics across multiple cameras, the VIGI NVR2016H (16 channels) or NVR2032H (32 channels) are recommended. Ensure your NVR supports AI analytics features to take full advantage of the C450's People \u0026amp; Vehicle Analytics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TP-Link","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44387830530277,"sku":"VIGI C450(2.8mm)","price":99.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/1554\/1221\/files\/tp-link-vigi-c450-5mp-full-colour-turret-network-camera.webp?v=1779692938","url":"https:\/\/cctvguru.com.au\/products\/tp-link-vigi-c450-5mp-full-colour-turret-camera-2-8mm","provider":"CCTV Guru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
