Extra Info
SMD Plus for False Alarm Reduction
This camera includes Dahua's Smart Motion Detection (SMD Plus), which uses AI to differentiate people and vehicles from irrelevant motion (like trees, rain, or animals). The result is fewer false alarms and more reliable alerts.
AI Perimeter Protection
Advanced tripwire and intrusion detection algorithms can identify human or vehicle targets specifically, greatly improving alarm accuracy in monitored zones.
Efficient Smart Compression
With Smart H.265+ and H.264+ support, this model delivers high-efficiency encoding to reduce video file sizes without reducing video quality, saving both storage and bandwidth.
Built-in Audio Monitoring
A built-in microphone adds another layer of surveillance by capturing ambient audio — perfect for entrances, reception areas, or high-risk retail zones.
Starlight Low-Light Performance
Thanks to a sensitive 1/2.7" sensor and F1.6 lens, the camera captures usable colour images in low light and seamlessly switches to IR in near-total darkness.
Durable IP67 Housing
Fully weatherproof for harsh environments, including outdoor poles, carparks, and entry gates. It operates in extreme temperatures from –40 °C to +60 °C.
