Arlo Q Security Camera
Do you need a simple, easy-to-use security camera to watch over your home and your precious belongings while you are away from home? From Netgear comes the Arlo Q security camera to conveniently take care of your safety needs for your home.
Many homes are becoming “smart,” and people are acquiring more smarter devices for their homes – for comfort, ease of use, and convenience. But how do you protect all those devices and equipment while you are away from home?
Security cameras continue to play a crucial role in protecting our homes and neighborhood. They allow us to watch over and stay in touch with our family members at home while we are away. We can prevent intrusion into our homes (research findings show that most burglars desist from invading a home or abandon the process when they detect that a security camera is in the house). We can also scare off a potential intruder or one in progress.
Netgear (now Arlo) has been manufacturing reliable and efficient home security cameras and accessories for years. One of such security cameras is the Arlo Q Security Camera, a simple security device with essential functions, yet efficient enough to carry out the work for which it is designed.

Design of the Arlo Q Security Camera
The Arlo Q Security Camera is designed to look like a camera. It comes in rounded square edges with a white matte finish and sits on a standing base that you can place on a table or shelf. The camera has a swivel neck, allowing you to adjust or direct its focus in any direction. It also has a magnet underneath its base by which you can attach it to any metal surface.
The Arlo Q has a 1080 HD, 30 fps, 130° field of view, H.264 format camera with 8X digital zoom. With a full color and CMOS image sensor, you will find the videos and pictures from this camera to be clear and crisp.
You need a high-speed internet and Wi-Fi connection to use the Arlo Q. It supports wireless frequencies 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz with N600 Wi-Fi speed, and a 300-feet line of sight. It also has a micro-USB port and is operated by AC power.
The Arlo Q comes with a 2-way audio system (i.e. microphone and speaker) that enables you to have a two-way conversation through the camera and the App. So, in addition to seeing what is currently happening in your home, you can also talk to whoever is at your home – be it family, pets, or an intruder.
The Arlo Q Security Camera weighs 1 pound and measures 4.5 x 6 x 6.9 inches. You can purchase the camera in one or more camera packs. However, the one-pack system comes with the following:
• One 1080p HD Security Camera
• One Wall mount plate
• Four mounting screws
• Power adapter and cable
• One Quick start guide

“This is exactly what we were looking for. It monitors our house inside and out with movement and noise. AND we don’t have to pay any monthly fee. Me, my wife and our daughter can monitor the house with alerts when anything goes on. We can program it too to only alert us during certain times. We love it!!” – Tracy November 29, 2018
“Was looking for a wireless camera that worked great with my iPhone, Alexa and fire tv. I found it in the arlo wireless cameras. Picture is great and the quick notification of movement or sounds, no matter where I am is a huge plus. Still playing with the arm/disarm/schedule to work for my family needs, but so far has worked flawless. I would recommend this setup to anyone who does not want to run wires through their attic and spend countless hours configure some goofy internet out port. This system worked right out of the box.” – S. Gossett November 30, 2018
“We have a set of 5 Arlo Pro that work great for outside and we wanted something less expensive for indoor to keep an eye on the pups. Picked this bad boy up for a killer deal on black Friday weekend and I would’ve been happy to pay full price. Easy set up, smooth integration with the app and great quality video.” – Easy Peezy December 2, 2018
