The TP-Link Tapo C520WS is an outdoor pan/tilt security camera designed for detailed property surveillance. It captures video in 2K QHD (2560 × 1440 px) resolution, providing clear and sharp images. The integrated Starlight sensor enables high-quality, full-colour video in low-light conditions, extending visibility beyond what standard infrared cameras can offer. With a 360° horizontal and 130° vertical range of motion, the camera provides comprehensive coverage of large areas. Smart AI detection distinguishes between people, pets, and vehicles, sending specific alerts to reduce unnecessary notifications. Additional features include two-way audio for direct communication, a customisable sound alarm to deter intruders, and an IP66 weatherproof rating to withstand outdoor elements. The camera supports local storage on a microSD card (up to 512 GB, sold separately) and offers an optional Tapo Care cloud storage subscription.
