(NYSE: ARLO), one of the leading internet-connected camera brands, today announced the additions to its award-winning Pro and Ultra Series security cameras – the Arlo Pro 4 Wire-Free Spotlight Camera and Ultra 2 Wire-Free Spotlight Camera System.

"With the highest video resolution and widest field of view in its class, the Pro 4 ensures precise, complete monitoring that's even easier to install thanks to a direct-to-WiFi connection. Ultra 2 expands placement options with enhanced range and connectivity. Couple those benefits with an award-winning, wire-free design, a long-lasting rechargeable battery and of course, customized Arlo Smart notifications via the Arlo app, and both solutions enable users to confidently take control of their security."

The Arlo Pro 4 Wire-Free Spotlight Camera and Ultra 2 Wire-Free Spotlight Camera System boast advanced, category-leading features that deliver ultimate peace of mind for home and business owners.  Arlo's AI subscription-based service, Arlo Smart, compliments the hardware to deliver total protection.

Arlo Smart provides extended 30-day rolling cloud storage of 2K (Pro 4) or 4K (Ultra 2) HD video recordings, for added peace of mind. Smarter, customizable  notifications enable Arlo Smart users to detect people, vehicles, animals or packages¹. And when help is needed, Arlo Smart's e911 feature lets users react faster by connecting to emergency services local to the camera's location instead of waiting to be rerouted from the location linked to their smartphone – saving previous moments in emergency situations². Controlled entirely through the Arlo app, users can easily view live streams and recordings, adjust their camera settings or access cloud recordings.
