It's hard to believe, but all these features don't come standard with every security camera. When you buy the Samsung SCC-641, you don't get everything that's automatically included in the price of the X10 Sentinel PTZ Camera. Mounting hardware, a weather-resistant covering and web control software are "extra" accessories for the Samsung SCC-641, resulting in at least $630 "extra" dollars out of your pocket!

No hidden costs

At X10 we don't believe in saddling you with hidden extra costs. Even our most basic packages provide everything you need to set your camera up easily and start monitoring right away from your television set. We include wall and ceiling mounts so you can easily mount your camera wherever you wish. The Samsung SCC-641 doesn't include any mounting equipment! It'll cost you $124.00 to mount it from the ceiling or $78.00 to put it on the wall. Mounting hardware for a pole or a corner will set you back $58.00. The X10 Sentinel even comes ready for outdoor use with its weather-resistant dome an outdoor weatherproof unit for the Samsung SCC-641 is $280.00! With our special Starlight Mode, you get a clear full color picture even in the middle of the night, and you can always see exactly what you need to see with our 22x optical zoom. Why leave anything to chance? Security is important to you, and it's just as important to us - the X10 Sentinel PTZ Camera provides the very best features so you can feel as secure as possible!

Everything is included

The Sentinel has full wireless capabilities so you can operate your camera from up to 100 feet away without worrying about hiding the cable, but should you require a wired connection, it also comes complete with connection cables that hook right into your TV. At X10 we wouldn't dream of excluding any of these great features - why spend extra money for the Samsung SCC-641 when the X10 Sentinel PTZ Camera comes with so much more at absolutely no additional cost?

You save hundreds of $$$

Our Ultimate Package, at $899.99 for motion-activated video, web control, and complete home automation, still falls several hundreds of dollars below the base price of the Samsung SCC-641! That gets you all the great included features of the X10 Sentinel PTZ Camera, as well as the capability to only record video when motion is detected, saving hours of tape and only capturing the footage you need to see!

With our Ultimate Package, you can monitor your home or business from any internet-connected computer with our web control software, a system the Samsung SCC-641 charges $224.30 for! Not only that, but you can link up your Sentinel to your other X10 home automation software! You'll never have to worry about the safety of your home or business again. All you have to do is get online and check! With the Ultimate Package, you can set your system to turn on lights at a certain hour, even when you're not at home to do it yourself. At X10, we offer the features you need so you never have to worry about the security of your home or business.
