Slim and Portable
The Infant Optics weighs about 1 pound. It is very slim and has a dimension of 3 x 1 x 3 inches. It is equipped with interference-free 2.4 GHz digital wireless FHSS communication link which makes it easy to place or carry the monitor conveniently anywhere in the house. The monitor display is also powered using a 900mAh Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery.
It also has 2.4 inch LCD-TFT screen which is big enough for monitoring the baby’s sound and movements through real-time and clear audio and video.
Adding to its portability, the monitor display unit has an upright stand so that parents won’t have to deal with holding it just to check on the screen. Also, the camera unit have their own stand as well. But they can be angled upward or downward. The downward tilting is great for viewing a sleeping baby inside his crib. Wall mounting is an option as well via screws to angle the camera better.
Night Vision
The Infant Optics DXR-5 Baby Monitor can be viewed at night without using other light via Infrared technology. This can be toggled so you have the option to turn it on or off when need be.
Wide Range
The Infant Optics DXR-5 Digital Video Monitor has up to 800 ft reception outdoors and 150 ft reception indoors. The indoor reception is quite limited because we also consider the walls blocking the signal.
Noiseless and Clear
The Infant Optics Digital Video Monitor has no static noise. There is a “White Noise Eliminator” module that rids of static noise that parents will be able to sleep comfortably. When the baby is fast asleep and the baby monitor do not detect any sound in 3 minutes, it will be on VOX standby mode and will turn off the monitor. It will only turn on again once it detects sounds when the baby is up. This is what they call the voice activated power saver mode.
