TP-LINK TAPO C420S2 Wire-Free Security Camera System

The TP-LINK TAPO C420S2 delivers comprehensive outdoor security monitoring with two wire-free cameras and the included H200 hub. This 2K QHD camera system provides 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution - 1.7 times more pixels than standard 1080p cameras - ensuring crystal-clear video footage and detailed still images of your property.

Extended Battery Performance

Each camera features a rechargeable, removable battery providing up to 180 days of operation on a single charge. The low-power protocol optimizes energy consumption while maintaining continuous surveillance. Battery life extends significantly with typical usage patterns, and the removable design allows for quick swapping without dismounting the camera.

Advanced Night Vision Technology

The starlight sensor enables full-color night vision, capturing high-fidelity details and accurate colors even in low-light conditions. When additional illumination is needed, the 850nm IR LEDs provide clear black-and-white night vision up to 15 meters (49 feet). This dual-mode capability ensures reliable 24/7 monitoring regardless of lighting conditions.

Smart AI Detection System

Intelligent AI algorithms distinguish between people, pets, packages, and vehicles, sending targeted notifications based on detected activity. This smart detection reduces false alarms from environmental factors like moving branches or passing shadows. Customize activity zones to focus monitoring on specific areas and receive alerts only for events that matter.

Active Deterrent Features

The integrated light and sound alarm system activates when motion is detected, deterring potential intruders before incidents occur. Two-way audio communication through the built-in microphone and speaker allows real-time interaction with visitors or delivery personnel from anywhere via the Tapo app.

Flexible Installation and Storage

Wire-free design enables installation virtually anywhere - indoors or outdoors - without complex wiring requirements. The IP65 rating provides complete protection against dust ingress and water jets, ensuring reliable operation in temperatures from -20°C to 45°C. Store recorded footage locally on a microSD card (up to 256GB) in the H200 hub, or subscribe to Tapo Care cloud storage for unlimited backup.
