Overview:

The EnGenius Home Guardian Kit (EBK1000) is an IoT (Internet of Things) solution that includes the EPG5000 Dual Band Wireless AC1750 IoT Intelligent Cloud Gateway and one EDS1130 HD720P IP Network Camera for monitoring a home or small business. The EPG5000 includes a Gigabit WAN port for optimal download and upload connectivity to a cable or DSL modem, a USB port, and a built-in 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet switch for large file transfers, and connecting home entertainment devices like HDTVs, Blu-ray players, set top boxes or game consoles so they can access a family’s Internet connection. Both products work with a suite of free EnGenius IoT mobile apps available for iPhone, iPad or Android devices.

The EDS1130 camera features a 1-Megapixel resolution and includes an IR-Cut filter for day/night mode for monitoring of rooms, entryways, patios, and more. This High Definition Camera is capable of streaming up to 2 codecs simultaneously with up to 30 frames per second using H.264, MPEG-4, or Motion JPEG.

With the EDS1130 Camera and EnGenius EnViewer™ mobile app available as a free download on the Apple Store and Google Play Store, users can conveniently and remotely monitor the care of children, elderly family members, or even pets. The Camera’s 2-Way audio capability with built-in microphone and audio output jack when connected to an external speaker system lets users speak directly to caregivers or family members. The Camera’s audio out capability also lets users pre-program an alarm that will sound if the Camera detects motion. Users can also be notified immediately with event notification push messages that display on the EnViewer app icon in the display of their mobile device, triggered by the camera’s motion detection feature.

For easy record keeping, the EDS1130 can also snap JPEG images or record video clips with its included recording software or on its video home page and sent directly to any connected DLNA storage device, a computer, network attached storage, or to a micro SD/SDHC card in the camera’s built-in micro SD/SDHC card slot capable of supporting up to 32 GB SD/SDHC cards (SD card not included). For monitoring in low-light or dark environments, the EDS1130 also includes hidden IR LEDs for night viewing up to sixteen (16) feet for locations such as entryways, patio doors, side doors, windows, and more to be secured any time day or night.

Setup is easy for the EDS1130. Just plug the network camera into a power outlet and pair it with a WPS-capable wireless router using its one-touch WPS button for a hassle-free setup. For secure management, the EDS1130 supports EnGenius DDNS, making it a cost competitive and convenient solution ideal for securing locations such as residences and small businesses.

Connect, stream video and transfer files at wireless speeds of up to 1300 Mbps on the EPG5000’s 5 GHz band and up to 450 Mbps on its 2.4 GHz band. The EPG5000 allows for a secure network with several security features and settings including industry standard wireless encryption such as WPA/WPA2 (Wireless Protected Access) to prevent unauthorized access to the home network; an advanced SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall to block malicious software from the Internet from accessing networked devices; MAC Address filtering to grant only known computers and devices network access; and URL filtering to block access to unwanted or offensive websites.

The EPG5000 also enables friends or visitors to gain Internet access or access to specific devices, like networked printers, while denying access to other networked computers or hard drives in the home that may contain private information via the a Guest Account feature.
