Extra Info
ePoE Transmission – Long-Distance Power & Data Over a Single Cable
This camera supports extended Power over Ethernet (ePoE), allowing both video and power to be transmitted over coaxial or Cat5 cables for distances up to 800 meters at 10Mbps. This is especially useful for large sites, remote buildings, perimeter fences, or parking lots, where traditional PoE limits would require additional switches or repeaters. ePoE significantly reduces installation costs and complexity in hard-to-reach or expansive areas.
Face Detection – Smart Facial Tracking for Better Records
Built-in AI-powered face detection allows the camera to capture, isolate, and tag faces in real time. When paired with a compatible Dahua NVR, this data can be used for facial recognition, access tracking, and intelligent playback filters. Ideal for entry points, lobbies, schools, or office buildings, where identifying individuals can enhance both security and operational insights.
Smart H.265+ Compression – Save Storage Without Sacrificing Quality
This camera uses scene-adaptive encoding to intelligently compress footage while retaining visual clarity. By focusing on regions of interest (ROI), motion areas, and adjusting frame rates dynamically, Smart H.265+ can reduce bandwidth and storage use by up to 70%. This makes it an excellent choice for setups that demand high-resolution recording with extended retention periods, such as commercial or multi-camera systems.
IVS Analytics – Intelligent Video Monitoring
The camera includes Dahua’s Intelligent Video System (IVS), enabling tripwire and intrusion detection functions. You can define virtual boundaries in the camera’s field of view—when someone crosses a line or enters a restricted zone, the system generates alerts or triggers recording. This feature reduces reliance on manual surveillance and is especially valuable for after-hours monitoring, restricted areas, or perimeter security.
Starlight Technology – Clear Color Imaging in Low Light
Thanks to enhanced low-light CMOS sensors, Dahua’s Starlight technology allows the camera to deliver color-rich images even in near-total darkness—without needing bright external lighting. Perfect for parking areas, dim alleys, rural properties, or any site where lighting is minimal, Starlight ensures critical scene details (like clothing color or vehicle type) remain visible after dark.
Q&A
