Netgear has introduced the next generation of their popular Arlo Pro camera: the Arlo Pro 2 Wire-Free Security Camera. The camera includes all the features the original Arlo Pro had, but now has expanded its features to meet customer needs.

Arlo Pro 2 will include higher quality 1080p HD video, a plug-in option with solar power and support for Amazon Alexa for live monitoring of your cameras from the Echo Show and TVs connected with Fire TV.

The camera is weather-resistant, allowing you to place it anywhere you'd like the for greatest view of your monitored property. The Arlo Solar Panel (sold separately) gives you the ability to recharge the batteries with just a few days of sunlight allowing for continuous recording.

“With 1080p HD video, combined with our patented wire-free design, Arlo Pro 2 provides customers with an exceptional video experience and an unparalleled capability to monitor every angle of their property, inside and outside, day and night," said Pat Collins, senior vice president of Arlo products at NETGEAR. "And with more power options, and the ability to optimize motion detection with activity zones, we continue to advance Arlo’s flexibility and intelligence to deliver the most comprehensive set of tools for protection of what matters most."
