5MP/QHD Image Quality

With a 5-megapixel sensor, the C5M delivers QHD resolution (2560x1920) for sharp, detailed images. This high resolution makes it possible to recognize faces, read text, and see small details—ideal for monitoring nurseries, offices, or shops where details matter.

AI Detection: People, Pets & Movement

The C5M features advanced AI algorithms that distinguish between different types of movement:

People detection: Recognizes people and sends specific notifications upon human presence. Reduces false alarms caused by moving branches, shadows, or changes in light.

Pet detection: Detects dogs and cats and records their movements. Perfect for monitoring pets while you are away or capturing funny moments.

Motion detection: General motion detection with adjustable sensitivity and detection zones. Receive notifications only for relevant areas.

Sound detection: Recognizes sounds such as crying babies, doorbells, alarms, or glass breaking. Ideal for baby monitor functionality.

Dual-Band WiFi for Stable Connection

Unlike standard WiFi cameras, the C5M supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi networks:

5GHz WiFi: Higher speeds, less interference from other devices, ideal for 5MP streaming without buffering. Suitable for cameras close to the router.

2.4GHz WiFi: Greater range, better through walls, suitable for cameras farther from the router or in rooms with many walls.

This flexibility ensures a stable connection in every situation.

Night Vision up to 8 Meters

Built-in infrared LEDs provide clear black-and-white images up to 8 meters in complete darkness. The IR LEDs automatically switch on in low light. Perfect for night vision in bedrooms, nurseries, or offices without disturbing light.

Two-Way Audio & Sound Detection

The built-in microphone and speaker enable two-way communication. Speak with children, pets, or visitors via the Foscam app. Use the camera as an intercom between rooms or to soothe pets.

Sound detection recognizes specific sounds and sends notifications for crying babies, doorbells, alarms, or unusual noises. Adjustable sensitivity prevents false alarms.

111.4° Wide Field of View

With a viewing angle of 111.4°, the C5M captures an entire room without blind spots. Place the camera in a corner to monitor a whole room with one camera. No PTZ function needed thanks to the wide field of view.

Smart Home Integration

Control the C5M with your voice via Amazon Alexa or Google Home:

• "Alexa, show the living room camera" - View live image on Echo Show
• "Ok Google, show the nursery" - Stream to Chromecast or Google Nest Hub

Integrate with other smart home devices for automations such as lights turning on upon motion detection.
