Product Information

The Arlo Pro 2 is IP65 rated, which means it should withstand the rain, cold and – when we get it – heat and sunshine, and since there are no wires required, having it mounted in your garden shouldn’t be too much of a problem at all. Learn from other Arlo users like you and experts that are offering up best practices and answering some common questions.

A magnet embedded in the rear of the enclosure allows you to attach the camera to the round metal mounts or any metal surface, or you can just place it on any flat area. When setting up your Arlo camera for the first time, you can connect your camera directly to your Wi-Fi router or to an Arlo SmartHub (for Arlo Pro or Ultra). Arlo's very easy and quick installation is different from most other security cameras, because you need to first connect the base station to the Internet. As we’ve already mentioned, the fact the cameras are wireless, not to mention nice and compact, makes them really easy to install in your house. If it’s a flexible security solution you’re after then one of the best apps in the business plus free cloud storage make the Arlo Pro 2 a winner.

The app gives you a library of all the footage recorded, each with its own thumbnail to make finding the clip you want easier. The Arlo also has a siren, if that’s what you’re into and it can pair up with other IFTTT systems besides Alexa. If you hit the Mode tab, it will take you to hub settings where you can arm or disarm your system, schedule alerts and turn on geofencing. After plugging in the cameras to charge them fully, you can simply place them in whatever area of your home you want to monitor. According to the system's specifications, cameras need to be within 300 feet of the base station, but that maximum distance is only if there are no intervening walls or other physical obstructions (which is unlikely in most homes or businesses).

The siren loudness is determined by the loudness of the siren trigger rule for whichever mode is currently active on the base station. When it comes to DIY home security systems, we want to make sure that what we purchase isn’t a pain to set up. Install in minutes, even in remote locations, and stream clear 1080p colour video to your phone, night or day.

While the Arlo Pro 2 doesn't include a slot for a memory card, the base station can accommodate an external USB hard drive. However, Arlo Pro 2 will stand out more since it has a small white ring around the front of the camera. With its superior video quality and zoom-in capabilities, you can capture even the smallest details with precision and clarity.
