Santa Fe Springs, Calif. — Swann Security is offering an all-in-one portable, weatherproof monitoring system, the OutbackCam, with a 2-megapixel color camera and built-in DVR.
The camera boasts night vision capability from 15 infrared LEDs, and recording is triggered either by motion detection or a pre-scheduled date/time that is activated on the internal menu and LCD display.
