The built-in camera has a 5 megapixel image sensor and the glass lens provides a wide 160° diagonal view. It replaces a functioning existing a wired doorbell system and compatible chime, and operates on 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz Wi-Fi.

Dimensions: Width 1.634", Height 4.655", Depth 1.144" (1.654" with angled mount).

Camera: The Circle View Doorbell\’s 5MP sensor produces 1200 x 1600 video with HDR (High Dynamic Range) to show every detail. The 3:4 portrait view and 160° diagonal angle of view gives you a head-to-toe view of the visitor at your door as close as 2 feet away. It also lets you see if there\’s a package on the ground in front of the door. In the Apple Home app, you can set up Face Recognition by tagging your family and friends, and they will be identified in the notifications you receive. The image sensor works with the doorbell\’s built-in 4000K LED night light to provide full color night vision from up to 6 feet away. The doorbell also supports two-way talk through a built-in digital MEMS microphone and mono speaker.

Mounting: The doorbell comes with two brackets for surface-mounting, including an angled mount (20°) that can be used on the left or right side of the door to give you a better angle in front of the door. Screws, wall anchors, and a mounting template are provided for mounting the bracket to the wall. The Circle View Doorbell has an IP65 weatherproof rating so it can be installed outdoors without worry. Installation in direct sunlight is not advisable. The included chime kit must be used indoors only. This digital chime can ring a melody every 15 seconds, and supports melodies up to that length. You can turn off the indoor chime using the Home app, if desired.

Dual Band Wi-Fi: The Circle View Doorbell must be installed where there is a strong Wi-Fi signal. The unit works on either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bands (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac), and 2 x 2 MIMO Wi-Fi. The internet signal must have an upload speed of at least 2.5 Mbps.

Power: The Circle View Doorbell requires electrical installation to a functioning existing wired doorbell system. The system must be 8 to 24V AC, 10VA or higher. The system should be wired with 16- to 24-gauge wiring, either solid or stranded with tinned ends. Several lengths of 20-gauge wire and wire splicing connectors are included. To ensure your existing doorbell system meets the electrical requirements, you should visit this Electrical Compatibility guide.

Apple Home App: The Home app lets you interact with the Circle View Doorbell from your Apple devices. When a visitor presses your doorbell or triggers a motion warning, your indoor chime will ring and you\’ll receive a rich notification that lets you view the video right from the Lock Screen of your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac. You\’ll be notified on your Apple HomePod, as well. If you have an Apple TV device, an announcement will pop up on your TV screen. Two-way conversations can be carried on using your Apple device through the doorbell\’s built-in microphone. Apple HomeKit Secure Video keeps your recordings secure, while letting you share the videos with others. The Home app works with mobile Apple devices running iOS 10.0 or later. To store your videos, you will need an active subscription to iCloud+. The 50GB plan ($0.99/month) supports one camera, while the 200GB plan ($2.99/month) supports 5 cameras. The 2TB plan ($9.99/month) will let you add an unlimited number of cameras.
