ALARM.COM | ADC-V729-V 4MP Outdoor Wi-Fi Floodlight Camera
DC-powered outdoor security camera with a 3,000-lumen floodlight, intelligent video analytics, warning lights, two-way audio and proactive deterrence.
Intelligent Outdoor Video Security with Proactive Deterrence
The Alarm.com ADC-V729-V 4MP Outdoor Wi-Fi Floodlight Camera combines high-resolution video surveillance, powerful outdoor illumination and intelligent threat deterrence in one integrated security device. Its 4MP image sensor captures video at resolutions up to 2688 × 1520, while the integrated 3,000-lumen floodlight improves visibility around driveways, garages, entrances and other exterior areas.
Alarm.com Video Analytics can distinguish among people, vehicles and animals, helping property owners receive more meaningful notifications with fewer unnecessary alerts. Detection events can activate the full floodlight, a strobing pattern, flashing red and blue warning lights or an audible warning sound to discourage unwanted activity before it escalates.
Two-way audio allows users to hear and speak with visitors through the Alarm.com app, while Onboard Recording with Smart View can provide continuous, locally stored encrypted video when a compatible microSD card and service configuration are used. Dual-band Wi-Fi provides flexible network connectivity for residential and light-commercial installations.
DC-Powered ADC-V729 Configuration
The ADC-V729-V is the DC-powered Wi-Fi configuration of the Alarm.com ADC-V729. It operates from the included 24 VDC, 2-amp power supply. It is different from the hardwired ADC-V729AC and the Ethernet-connected ADC-VC729P, so confirm the available power and network connection before ordering.

More Than an Outdoor Recording Camera
Many security cameras simply record an incident after it happens. The ADC-V729-V adds visible and audible deterrence tools that can respond while activity is occurring. When a configured video analytics rule detects a person, vehicle or animal in a protected area, the camera can activate selected lighting and sound responses.
- Illuminate the area with the full 3,000-lumen floodlight
- Activate a strobing floodlight pattern
- Flash red and blue warning lights
- Play an audible warning sound through the camera speaker
- Send a notification through the Alarm.com platform
- Allow the user to view live video and speak through the camera
Alarm.com Video Analytics
Intelligent video analytics can classify people, vehicles and animals instead of treating every movement as the same type of event. Custom Ground Zone and Tripwire rules help focus detection on important areas, such as a driveway, gate, walkway or restricted exterior entrance. Rules, schedules and notification options are configured through a compatible Alarm.com account and service plan.
Two-Way Audio and Remote Awareness
The built-in microphone and speaker support two-way audio through the Alarm.com app. Authorized users can hear activity near the camera, speak with expected visitors or delivery drivers and address unexpected individuals without opening the door or approaching the monitored area.
Onboard Recording with Smart View
When configured with a supported microSD card and an eligible Alarm.com video service, Onboard Recording with Smart View provides continuous local recording with encrypted video storage. Users can review recorded activity through the Alarm.com interface without handling the memory card directly.
A supported microSD card may be sold separately. Due to the higher data requirements, Alarm.com requires a card with at least 128 GB capacity for recording at 4MP resolution.
