Synology and Y-Cam Grasshopper Bundle Review

We received the Grasshopper bundle, without the 2TB of storage, so we used our own hard drives.

Opening one of the Y-Cam boxes we see a little caveat explaining the night vision capabilities of the camera. There is a software disc, quick start guide and product literature supplied.

Each of the two camera kits is supplied with various plug adapters for multiple regions, a 5 volt power supply as well as a mounting bracket and network cable.

The camera is available in two colours, a white or black version. Y-Cam also sell a more expensive SD version which has support for direct microSD recording. At the rear is a power connector, network cable connector and wall mounting screw.

The mounting system is screwed into the rear of the body as shown above. The mount can then be attached to a wall or placed level on a flat surface.

The network cable hooks directly into the bottom left of the camera body. There is also a reset hole to force the camera back to factory default settings.
