WiFi vs. Non-WiFi Monitors: Why Low Tech is Safer
WiFi vs. Non-WiFi Monitors: Why Low Tech is Safer
In the age of the smart home, it's tempting to want a baby monitor that beams 4K video to your phone. But with connectivity comes vulnerability. Stories of hacked baby monitors are nightmare fuel for new parents.
This is why the Infant Optics DXR-8 Pro remains a bestseller despite lacking an app. It uses strict FHSS radio transmission—meaning the video goes from the camera to the parent unit, and nowhere else.
Infant Optics DXR-8 Pro Baby Monitor
RELIABLE MONITORING: Our patented, Active Noise Reduction technology, filters out background noises in the nursery like fans, air purifiers, heaters, and air conditioners so you can hear your baby more clearly and enjoy a restful night’s sleep.
Reliability is King
Apps crash. WiFi goes down. The DXR-8 Pro just works. You turn it on, and you see your baby. The "Pro" version offers active noise reduction (filtering out the white noise machine so you only hear the baby) and vastly improved range and battery life.
Interchangeable Lenses
Depending on your nursery setup, you might need a wide angle or a zoom. The Infant Optics system lets you physically swap lenses on the camera for the perfect view—optical zoom is always clearer than digital zoom.
The Verdict
If you want to check firmly on your baby while at work, this isn't for you. But if you want a bulletproof, hack-free monitor for sleeping at night, the DXR-8 Pro is the gold standard.
