Arlo Q rated IP65?

funkiestj — Sun, 21 May 2017 17:09:59 GMT

Are there any plans to create an Arlo Q plus that is rated IP65 for outdoor use? It looks to me like the Q has higher resolution (1080p vs 720p?) than the wireless (presumably because it is powered) and I want the highest resolution available but I also prefer running power (PoE) rather than periodically changing batteries.

Is anyone using the existing Arlo Q+ cameras outside? E.g. by adding some weatherproofing? I could easily mount an Arlo Q+ outdoors under the roof where it would be out of the rain but moisture from fog and dew would still be a problem.

Lastly, is there a roadmap for future products? E.g. higher resolution cameras? Given the very wide field of view (typical of security cameras) 1080p is OK but 2k or 4k would be better.

funkiestj,

Arlo Q/Q Plus are not rated for outdoor use. There are some discussions on the Arlo Idea Exchange requesting PoE/Wired outdoor options. If you like would like to see a camera in the future with these capabilities, I encourage you to visit these discussions and offer your support by adding Kudos.

Thank you,
