SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 15, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NETGEAR®, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR ), the worldwide leader in home networking and smart home security products will launch Arlo’s first mobile IoT smart device. Connected by AT&T, the Arlo Go security camera can go nearly anywhere without the need for external power or WiFi connectivity. A 2017 CES Innovation Award Honoree, Arlo® Go Mobile HD Security Camera (LTE-VML4030) , is the world’s first 100% wire-free mobile security video solution that works in the AT&T nationwide service coverage area in the US. Arlo Go uses 3G and 4G LTE wireless connections providing a security video monitoring solution when roaming or in areas with limited or no WiFi access. By combining the power, simplicity and flexibility of the award-winning Arlo® HD Security Camera product line with the mobile connectivity of AT&T’s nationwide network, Arlo Go is a breakthrough in modern product design, enabling fast and easy security monitoring of even the most remote locations. And, with the new quick-charge rechargeable batteries, Arlo Go will always be powered and ready for the task of monitoring your most precious assets.
Arlo HD Smart Security Cameras are easily set up in seconds and Arlo Go is no different. Without the dependency on an existing WiFi connection, Arlo Go can be deployed and re-deployed quickly. As with all Arlo cameras, Arlo Go offers a rolling seven (7) days of free cloud storage so you can record and review videos from the app. With Arlo Go’s advanced PIR motion sensor, you are alerted with near real-time notifications whenever an object enters the camera’s field of view. Through Arlo’s mobile and browser apps, you get a live, on demand view of the location as well as the ability to easily play previously recorded videos from nearly anywhere in the world. Two-way audio allows the ability to hear and speak through the camera and Arlo’s advanced RGB-IR Night vision technology provides a clear picture of the scene, even in the dead of night. Arlo Go also comes equipped with a micro SD memory card* slot for easy local backup of video in the event of a network interruption.
“Arlo Go is the latest example of how we develop products with a clear focus on our customers’ needs,” said Pat Collins, senior vice president of Arlo products at NETGEAR. “With no cords and no wires and now the ability to easily connect nearly anywhere, Arlo Go provides Businesses, Municipalities and Consumers with an unprecedented ability to monitor and protect their properties, communities and assets. We’re also very excited to be launching our smart analytics platform which will provide Customers with real-time intelligence about what’s happening when an event is detected on any of our Arlo Cameras.”
“We’re excited to work with NETGEAR on this first-of-its-kind solution for our customers,” said Chris Penrose, President, Internet of Solutions, AT&T. “Using our 4G LTE network, the Arlo Go Mobile HD security camera lets users keep watch from just about anywhere. The flexibility opens up new opportunities for security that weren’t possible before.”
