TP-Link VIGI C485
VIGI 8MP Full-Color Turret Network Camera
The TP-Link VIGI C485 is a 4K (8 MP) network camera for watching open areas — a yard, an entrance, a driveway, a car park. Its main strength is round-the-clock colour: thanks to a 1/2.7-inch progressive scan CMOS sensor and an F1.6 lens it keeps colour down to 0.005 lux, and switches to infrared or white light to keep recording at 0 lux.
4K resolution holds on to detail — a number plate, a face, a product label — when the frame is zoomed in. The lens is fixed focus: the 2.8 mm option, with a 111.4° horizontal view, detects a subject at 85 metres and observes it at 35 metres; the 4 mm option (91.5°) detects at 107 metres and observes at 44 metres, which suits large yards and car parks. The camera runs on a 12 V DC adapter or over PoE.
The camera supports people and vehicle analytics: it classifies the subject, reduces false alarms and lets you search recorded footage for people and vehicles separately. Active defence warns an intruder with light and sound when suspicious movement is detected, and two-way audio lets you speak through the camera. The IP67 housing is sealed against dust and rain, and H.265+ compression keeps a longer archive on the same drive.

TP-Link VIGI C485 — surveillance camera for business
TP-Link VIGI C485 belongs to the TP-Link VIGI line: a surveillance camera for shops, warehouses, offices and production sites. Unlike home cameras it is built around an NVR recorder, power over a single cable via PoE, and continuous long-term recording.
Who it suits: sites with four cameras or more, shop chains that need several locations on one NVR, warehouses and offices recording around the clock. Together with a PoE switch you no longer need a separate power supply at every camera.

Frequently asked questions about TP-Link VIGI C485
Do I have to buy an NVR for TP-Link VIGI C485?
Not strictly — the camera can record to a memory card. But from four cameras up, an NVR keeps the archive in one place, makes searching through recordings far easier, and preserves the footage even if a camera is damaged. On a larger site the NVR and the PoE switch are planned together.
What is PoE and why does it matter?
PoE carries both data and power over one network cable. That means no separate socket next to the camera, so the installation is cheaper and tidier. The important part is choosing a PoE switch with enough power budget (W) for the number of cameras.
Do you design the system for a site?
Yes. The number of cameras, viewing angles, cable routes and NVR capacity are decided after a site visit. The visit and the quote are free anywhere in Baku.
What about warranty and delivery?
The device is sold by the official TP-Link partner in Azerbaijan with official warranty. Delivery in Baku is available and shipping to the regions is possible. If you need installation, see our services page.
