The DH-IPC-HDBW3466R-AS-P is a compact, vandal-resistant 4MP dome camera designed for high-traffic areas requiring wide coverage. With starlight performance, built-in mic, and AI-based detection, this fixed-lens camera is optimized for clear visuals, smart monitoring, and strong protection—day or night, rain or shine.
Key Features
-
180° Wide-Angle Fixed Lens: Capture expansive scenes with minimal blind spots—perfect for entryways and open areas.
-
Starlight Image Sensor: Provides brighter, clearer video even in low-light conditions without needing IR.
-
Smart Motion Detection 3.0 (SMD): Filters out non-human/vehicle movement to reduce false alarms.
-
EPTZ Auto Tracking: Automatically enlarges and tracks AI alarm targets for better visual detail.
-
Built-in Microphone: Capture ambient audio for added context in footage.
-
IR Night Vision (15 m): Delivers reliable visibility in complete darkness using 3 IR LEDs.
-
Rugged Protection – IP67 + IK10: Built to resist heavy rain, dust, and physical impact—ideal for public or exposed installations.
-
Flexible AI Recording: Supports edge recording up to 256 GB and advanced detection with AI-enabled NVRs.
Perfect For:
- Hallway intersections and indoor public spaces
- ATM vestibules or bank lobbies
- Warehouse corners
- Convenience store ceilings
- Apartment or condo entryways
- Covered outdoor areas needing vandal-proofing
Install Tips
- Mount at 2.5–3 m for best angle coverage using its ultra-wide lens.
- Ideal for ceilings near entrances or corridors for maximum visibility.
- Use PoE to simplify cabling—no need for separate power.
- EPTZ works best when paired with a Dahua NVR to follow alarms.
- LDC (Lens Distortion Correction) is enabled by default—disable only if fisheye effect is preferred.
- Use in high-risk areas where vandal resistance (IK10) is a must.

Extra Info
180° Wide-Angle Coverage
Equipped with a 2.1 mm ultra-wide lens, this camera delivers up to 180° horizontal field of view, or 170° with lens correction enabled. This expansive coverage makes it ideal for monitoring open interior spaces, building entrances, or corner areas, where multiple standard cameras would typically be required. The wide-angle lens significantly reduces blind spots, offering efficient surveillance with fewer devices.
EPTZ Tracking
This camera supports Electronic Pan-Tilt-Zoom (EPTZ) functionality, which digitally zooms in and follows AI-triggered events such as a person entering a defined area. This capability provides focused tracking of important motion without the need for mechanical movement. It’s especially useful for high-traffic zones where close-up detail may be critical during alerts or playback.
SMD 3.0 – Smarter Detection
The third generation of Dahua’s Smart Motion Detection (SMD 3.0) enhances accuracy by extending detection range and minimizing false alarms caused by animals, foliage, rain, or shadows. This makes it highly reliable in environments with frequent background movement, such as sidewalks, open lobbies, or landscaped areas.
Starlight Performance
Featuring a low-light optimized sensor, the camera can produce usable color video in lighting as low as 0.01 lux. This means that clear, color-rich images can still be captured well into dusk or under minimal ambient light—providing an alternative to black-and-white infrared imagery and enhancing identification detail in low-light conditions.
Audio I/O
Designed for versatile audio integration, the camera includes a built-in microphone and RCA audio input/output ports. This allows the use of external microphones, speakers, or intercom systems to support two-way communication or audio-triggered alerts. It’s an excellent choice for monitored entrances, reception areas, or any application where voice capture is important.
Durable Build
Housed in a vandal-resistant IK10-rated dome, the camera is engineered to resist physical impact, making it suitable for installation in public spaces, schools, transportation hubs, and other high-risk areas. In addition, its IP67 weatherproof rating ensures protection against rain, dust, and high humidity, enabling reliable performance in both indoor and exposed outdoor environments.
While the DH-IPC-HDBW3466R-AS-P does not feature built-in AcuPick, it supports AcuPick search functions when connected to an AI-capable Dahua NVR. The camera sends AI metadata (e.g., face detection, people counting, perimeter classifications) that the NVR uses for smart filtering and playback search.
Benefits via AI NVR Integration:
- Search by human or vehicle presence
- Filter playback using traits like mask, gender, or clothing
- Skip irrelevant footage and jump to key events instantly
- Use AI-driven logs and smart snapshots from camera metadata
Q&A
Can this camera see color at night?
Yes, in low-light it uses starlight technology for color. In total darkness, it switches to IR (black-and-white).
Does the EPTZ follow people in real time?
Yes, it automatically zooms in and digitally tracks targets that trigger alarms like intrusion or tripwire events.
Can the camera be wall-mounted or only ceiling-mounted?
It supports both. Optional mounts (wall, pole, ceiling) are available for flexible installation.
Does it include two-way audio?
It has a built-in mic and ports for connecting an external speaker, enabling two-way audio with compatible NVRs.
How far does the IR night vision reach?
Up to 15 m in complete darkness using the built-in infrared LEDs.
Can this record without an NVR?
Yes. It supports microSD cards up to 256 GB for onboard video recording.
What’s the difference between SMD 2.0 and SMD 3.0?
SMD 3.0 improves accuracy and distance for motion detection—especially for human/vehicle classification.
Is this camera vandal-proof?
Yes. The metal IK10-rated dome protects against impacts and tampering.
