§ 01Overview

What the Insight S445ZI is

The TP-Link VIGI InSight S445ZI is a 4MP motorised varifocal turret camera, the turret-bodied sibling of the S345ZI bullet.

Its 2.7-13.5mm lens gives a 5x optical zoom that you set remotely in the VIGI app or NVR, with motorised focus, so a single camera can frame a wide entrance or zoom into a distant point.

The low-profile turret form is discreet and easy to aim, and it mounts neatly on a wall or ceiling.

It records 4MP (2688 x 1520) video on a 1/2.9-inch sensor with 120dB true wide dynamic range for high-contrast scenes such as doorways and windows, and an IR illuminator for night vision up to 60 m; as an IR camera, night footage is black-and-white.

AI human and vehicle classification cuts false alarms, and smart events include motion, intrusion and loitering detection.

The camera has a built-in microphone, and an audio-out line lets you connect an external speaker for talk-back.

The S445ZI has an IP67 weatherproof, IK10 vandal-resistant metal housing and runs on PoE (802.3af/at) or 12V DC.

It records to a microSD card up to 512GB and works with VIGI NVRs and the VIGI app, or with third-party recorders over ONVIF (Profile S/T/G) and RTSP.

It is normally fitted by a security or cabling technician.

What the Insight S445ZI features actually look like

Representative illustrations of how each key feature performs in a real scene.

4MP Ultra HD

4MP captures roughly twice the detail of standard 1080p.

60m IR Night Vision

Built-in infrared sees in total darkness up to around 60m, covering long driveways and large properties. Even well away from the house, people and vehicles remain clear in black-and-white.

False Alarm Reduction

Filtering helps separate real activity from harmless movement like rain, leaves or pets, so you get fewer pointless notifications and the alerts that matter stand out.

Human/Vehicle Detection

Smart detection focuses on people and vehicles and can ignore things like swaying branches, rain or small animals — helping cut down false alerts and making the right moments easier to find.

Two-Way Audio

Talk and listen in real time through the app — tell a courier where to leave a parcel, or speak to someone at the gate, whether you're home or away.

§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the Insight S445ZI

Frame it from your desk

5x optical zoom and remote focus set the exact field of view without touching the camera, then lock it in.

Discreet turret body

The low-profile turret suits eaves, entries and indoor ceilings where a bullet would look bulky.

Long-range night vision

A 60 m IR illuminator covers driveways, walkways and yards after dark.

Backed locally

Supplied by an authorised dealer with a 3-year warranty and Australia-wide support.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Entrances and walkways

Frame a doorway or path precisely and read faces clearly day or night.

Mixed indoor/outdoor sites

Wall or ceiling mount under cover or outdoors, with IP67/IK10 protection.

Driveways and yards

Use the zoom to watch a distant gate while still covering the approach.

Retail and office entries

Keep a clear, adjustable view of who comes and goes, with people and vehicle alerts.

§ 06Setup

Installation & setup

01

What it is

A 4MP motorised varifocal (5x zoom) IR turret with IP67/IK10 housing, for wall or ceiling mounting.

02

Power and network

PoE (802.3af/at) over one Cat5e/6 cable, or 12V DC. It connects to a PoE NVR or PoE switch.

03

Mounting and focus

Surface mount to a wall or ceiling and set zoom and focus remotely; a junction box helps with cabling.

04

Audio note

In Australia a network camera is usually fitted by a licensed security installer or a competent IT/cabling technician, who runs the Cat5e/6 cable, terminates the RJ45, mounts the camera and adds it to the NVR or VIGI app. For talk-back, wire an external speaker to the audio-out; the built-in microphone handles listen-in.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked about the Insight S445ZI

Q.01

What is the difference from the S345ZI?

Same 4MP sensor, 5x motorised varifocal lens and 60 m IR, but in a low-profile turret body instead of a bullet, mountable on a wall or ceiling.
Q.02

How do I set the zoom and focus?

Remotely, in the VIGI app or NVR. The 2.7-13.5mm lens gives 5x optical zoom with motorised focus.
Q.03

How far does its night vision reach?

Up to 60 m with the IR illuminator; night footage is black-and-white as it is an IR camera.
Q.04

Does it have AI detection?

Yes. AI human and vehicle classification cuts false alarms, with motion, intrusion and loitering events.
Q.05

Does it have two-way audio?

It has a built-in microphone for listen-in, and an audio-out line so you can add an external speaker for talk-back.
Q.06

How is it powered?

By PoE (802.3af/at) over one network cable, or by 12V DC.
Q.07

Is it weatherproof and vandal-resistant?

Yes. It has an IP67 weatherproof and IK10 vandal-resistant metal housing.
Q.08

Will it work with a third-party NVR?

Yes. It is an ONVIF Profile S/T/G camera and streams over RTSP, as well as working with VIGI NVRs.

§ 09Bundles

Recommended packages

03

Prefer a bullet?

The same 5x varifocal in a bullet body is the InSight S345ZI.

04

Mount and weatherproof

Add the VJB-240 wall-mount bracket or VJB-300 junction box for tidy cabling.
