High Resolution Surveillance  
The D-Link DCS-3716 is a high-end Full HD 
Day & Night WDR Network Camera, equipped 
with a 1/2.8” 3 Megapixel WDR Progressive 
Scan CMOS sensor and a 3.1-8.0 mm DC auto 
iris lens. The DCS-3716 captures video in both 
dark and light environments, or even subjects 
shot against a backlight by neutralising 
imperfect lighting and generating a realistic 
image. In addition, the removable IR-cut 
filter for day/night functionality provides 
clear detail and high quality video at any 
point during the day or night. The DCS-3716 
incorporates Power over Ethernet (PoE) and an 
SD card slot, allowing it to be easily installed in 
a variety of locations.
Multiple Video Streams  
The DCS-3716 supports simultaneous 
streaming of H.264, MPEG-4, and MJPEG 
video to provide both high-quality and 
bandwidth-efficient compression formats. 
MJPEG delivers excellent file integrity, ideal 
for situations which require high image detail. 
H.264 and MPEG-4 produce a small file size, 
useful for extended recording or for use in 
low-bandwidth networks. Additionally, the 
DCS-3716 supports multicast H.264 MPEG-4 
streaming, allowing users to view the camera 
feed by subscribing to a multicast IP address 
on the network.
Flexible Connectivity 
The DCS-3716 includes input and output 
ports allowing connectivity to external 
devices such as IR sensors, switches, and alarm 
relays. It also comes with an RS-485 interface, 
providing connectivity to an optional pan/
tilt enclosure which effectively adds pan/tilt 
functionality to the DCS-3716. An additional 
12 V interface provides power for an optional 
LED illuminator.
Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) Applications
The Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) function 
provides clear images even under backlit 
conditions where the intensity of illumination 
can vary significantly, making the DCS-
3716 perfect for extreme high-contrast 
environments. For example, when placed 
indoors, the DCS-3716 will adjust itself to the 
intense sunlight that may be streaming in 
through a nearby window. This makes it an 
ideal solution for security applications.
Open Network Video Interface Forum 
(ONVIF) compliant
ONVIF is an open industry forum for the 
development of a global standard for the 
interface of IP based physical security 
products. ONVIF identifies a standard for how 
IP products within video surveillance and 
other physical security areas can communicate 
with each other ensuring interoperability 
between products regardless of brand. The 
DCS-3716 is ONVIF compliant and therefore 
interoperable with other manufacturer’s 
products on the same network such as 
cameras, storage systems, video analytics 
products and Video Management Systems.
Centralised management with D-ViewCam™
The D-ViewCam™ IP camera surveillance 
software is a comprehensive surveillance 
system designed to centrally manage multiple 
IP cameras. Supporting up to 32 IP cameras, 
D-ViewCam™ is compatible with all current 
D-Link IP cameras, Video Servers and offers 
digital monitoring and recording capabilities 
of video, audio, and events for various 
security applications. This software provides 
users with a wide array of features for added 
convenience, including video recording, 
playback, video live view, offering users 
powerful surveillance software that’s easy to 
use. D-ViewCam™ software is included free of 
charge with the DCS-3716.
