Preface
The network cameras WV-SP105, WV-SP102, WV-SP105E and WV-SP102E are designed to oper-
ate using a PC on a network (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX).
By  connecting  to  a  network  (LAN)  or  the  Internet,  images  from  the  camera  can  be  monitored  on  a 
PC via a network.
WV-SP105
	 •	 Maximum	image	capture	size:	1280	x	960	(Aspect	ratio	4:3),	1280	x	720	(Aspect	ratio	16:9)
	 •	 Extra	zoom
WV-SP102
	 •	 Maximum	image	capture	size:	640	x	480	(Aspect	ratio	4:3),	640	x	360	(Aspect	ratio	16:9)
Note:
	 •	 It	 is	necessary	 to	configure	 the	network	 settings	of	the	 PC	and	 its	network	 environment	 to	
monitor images from the camera on the PC. It is also necessary to install a web browser on the 
PC.
 
    
Main functions
Triple encoding: JPEG and two types of H.264
The outputs of JPEG and two H.264 streams can be simultaneously provided.
Power over Ethernet function
When  connecting  with  a  PoE  (Power  over  Ethernet)  device,  power  will  be  supplied  by  simply  con-
necting a LAN cable. (IEEE802.3af compliant)
Adaptive black stretch function
Black crushing in the darker parts of objects, which have various illumination intensities, is correct-
ed to make an image more viewable.
Extra zoom (WV-SP105 only)
Among  approx.  1.3  megapixel  image  capture  area  of  the  MOS  image  sensor,  the  central  part  of 
approx. 0.3 megapixels is extracted for shooting. That enables the shooting with a higher zooming 
effect. When the image capture size under "VGA" is applied, the zoom factor can be adjusted up to 
2x.
