The TP-Link Tapo TC46 is an outdoor IP security camera with 4K Ultra HD (8 MP) resolution, motorized with Pan/Tilt functions for full 360° coverage. Equipped with integrated artificial intelligence, it offers free detection of people, pets, and vehicles, plus locally processed facial recognition to ensure your privacy. With dual-band Wi-Fi 6 connectivity (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and an Ethernet port, the TC46 easily adapts to any installation. Its robust construction with IP66 certification ensures resistance to rain, dust, and adverse weather conditions, making it ideal for monitoring entrances, gardens, parking lots, and perimeters.

Usage Examples

1. Outdoor Perimeter Surveillance

Install the TC46 on the facade of your home or business to monitor the entire outdoor area. With the motorized Pan/Tilt, you can remotely control the viewing angle and cover a much larger area than with a fixed camera.

2. Monitoring Entrances and Accesses

Local facial recognition allows you to automatically identify family members, friends, and strangers, receiving alerts only when it really matters. Ideal for knowing who enters and leaves your property.

3. Scheduled Automatic Patrol

Set specific times and points for the camera to travel automatically, simulating a security round without manual intervention. Perfect for businesses and warehouses outside of operating hours.

Facial Recognition with Local AI

The TC46 integrates advanced artificial intelligence that recognizes and identifies strangers, family members, and friends, reducing unnecessary notifications. All facial data is processed locally on the device, without being sent to the cloud, ensuring total privacy and security.

Full-Color Night Vision with Starlight Sensor

Capture colorful and detailed images even in low-light environments. The TC46 combines a high-sensitivity Starlight sensor with two integrated LED floodlights and 850 nm IR LEDs with a range of up to 30 meters. The smart mode automatically switches to color when it detects a person, maximizing identification.

Free Smart Detection of People, Animals, and Vehicles

The AI identifies and classifies people, pets, and vehicles, sending alerts only when truly necessary. With personalized activity zones, you can define specific areas for monitoring and ignore frequent passage zones.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 and Ethernet

Connect the camera to a Wi-Fi 6 router and benefit from higher speed, stability, and less congestion. The 5 GHz band offers seamless 4K streaming, while the 2.4 GHz band ensures greater range. The Ethernet port allows for a wired connection for maximum reliability.

Flexible Local and Cloud Storage

Save recordings locally on a microSD card up to 512 GB (388 hours of 4K video with 512 GB) or subscribe to the Tapo Care cloud service for encrypted storage, backups, and 30 days of clip history.

Two-Way Audio and Personalized Alarm

Speak and listen in real-time with the two-way audio system with noise cancellation. Deter intruders with the 99 dB siren and personalize the alarms: record your own audio and adjust the brightness of the floodlights as needed.

Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant

Control the camera by voice and view the feed on smart screens compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
