NCP

NCP-branded cameras are used primarily in low-cost surveillance kits. They offer basic features such as motion alerts, IR night vision, and SD card storage. Integrators should isolate them from sensitive networks, disable default accounts, and manually check for firmware updates to mitigate risk. How to connect to Ncp IP cameras?

Ncp IP camera

Initial setup of IP cameras starts by isolating the device from the main network and connecting it to a separate segment or directly to a laptop to avoid IP conflicts and prevent accidental external access. Identify the factory IP address and default credentials and change them right away. In large systems the same password can be used within an isolated subnet for easier management, but different passwords should be set for remote access.

RTSP Address of Ncp IP camera

RTSP is a standard protocol for streaming video and audio over a network. It lets the camera connect to a recorder or software without vendor apps. The URL usually looks like rtsp://login:password@IP:554/path_to_stream. You can find it in the documentation, the web interface, or with SmartVision or ONVIF Device Manager.







ONVIF vs RTSP: What’s the Difference?

People often confuse ONVIF with video streaming — but ONVIF doesn’t transmit video at all.

Ncp compatible software

Assign a static IP address from a dedicated range, place cameras in a separate VLAN, and block direct Internet access if cloud features are not used. Use SmartVison to find Ncp IP camera on network. Disable UPnP, DDNS, auto-updates, and any unused protocols for security reason. If the camera does not support RTSP, check if you can enable it in settings. Try HTTP streaming if supported. If not, replace the camera with a model that supports RTSP or ONVIF.

What Users Are Saying About SmartVision
SmartVision brings simplicity and intelligence to security with its AI-powered VMS. It’s easy to use, provides real-time motion detection, and gives you remote access to your cameras. Here’s what users are saying:
  • One of the best features of SmartVision is how it balances the use of local and cloud storage. In the past, I was overwhelmed with the sheer volume of footage my cameras recorded, and the associated costs of cloud storage were adding up quickly. SmartVision's intelligent video analytics help to filter out irrelevant footage, reducing the amount of data sent to the cloud. This system allows me to keep more recordings locally, while only the important events are uploaded to the cloud. It's a more efficient and cost-effective way of handling video surveillance.
