Kasa Smart 1080p Indoor Pan/Tilt Security Camera, EC71 with Night Vision and Two-Way Audio

Kasa Smart EC71 is a wired 1080p indoor pan/tilt security camera for monitoring babies, pets and rooms, with 360° horizontal and 113° vertical viewing range.

• Motion tracking follows moving people or objects — keep activity in view as it moves.
• Motion, person and baby-cry detection — receive push notifications about activity you choose to monitor.
• Infrared night vision reaches up to 30 ft — view indoor activity in low light.
• Two-way audio — speak through the camera using the phone app.
• Continuous local recording supports a microSD card up to 256 GB (card not included) — keep footage on a card you provide.

For a baby’s room, a pet’s usual space or an indoor walkway, the EC71 combines remote viewing with alerts and camera movement in one wired device. Watch a live stream on your smartphone, check activity while away, or use the camera’s audio to speak into the room. Its detection options help tailor notifications to household activity, while the pan/tilt movement and Patrol Mode are designed to monitor different areas.

How does the EC71 monitor a room or walkway?

The camera can pan and tilt across its viewing range, and Patrol Mode lets you monitor selected regions at intervals you choose. Motion tracking automatically follows a moving object or person, helping keep movement in view rather than leaving the camera fixed in one direction. Use the Kasa app to view live video on a smartphone and check the areas the camera is monitoring.

• Set Patrol Mode to revisit regions at chosen intervals.
• Use the moving camera to monitor a room or walkway.
• View live video on a smartphone.

What activity can trigger an alert?

The EC71 can send push notifications when it detects motion or a person, and it also offers baby-cry detection. These options are useful for checking on a sleeping baby or seeing whether a pet is moving around. When you want to respond directly, the built-in two-way audio lets you speak through the camera from the phone app, including to comfort a pet while you are away.

• Choose motion or person detection for activity notifications.
• Enable baby-cry detection for baby-monitor use.
• Use two-way audio to communicate through the camera.

How can you save and review footage?

For local recording, the camera supports continuous footage storage on a compatible microSD card with capacity up to 256 GB; the card is not included. Kasa Care is an optional cloud storage route that saves 30-day video history and includes features such as Video Summary and activity notifications with snapshots. Choose the storage approach that suits how you want to review recordings.

• Local storage: continuous recording to a microSD card.
• Cloud storage: Kasa Care provides 30-day video history.
• Kasa Care also includes Video Summary and activity notifications with snapshots.

Which devices and apps work with the EC71?

The camera connects over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. It works with Alexa and Google Home supported displays, so you can call up a live view by voice on a compatible screen, including Echo Show or Chromecast. Kasa devices are also supported in the Tapo app without replacing the hardware; one-tap integration requires logging in with the same account and gives access to more TP-Link smart-home device options in one app.

• Wi-Fi connection uses the 2.4 GHz band.
• Voice control can show live video on supported Alexa or Google Home displays.
• Tapo app integration requires the same account and does not require hardware replacement.

The Kasa Smart EC71 suits households that want app-based indoor monitoring for a baby, pet or shared room, with options for alerts, remote viewing, audio and recorded footage. Its wired design, adjustable pan/tilt view and flexible local or cloud recording make it a practical fit for monitoring indoor spaces from a phone.
