Who is the IPC-B149HA-LU for?
The 4MP ColorVu bullet with a built-in microphone and a 4mm lens. The 4mm lens gives a narrower, longer view than the usual 2.8mm — roughly a third more reach — which suits a driveway from the gable end, a car park from a corner, or a side passage where you want the far end rather than the widest angle. Colour at night comes from a large-aperture lens and 30m warm white light, and the microphone adds sound to the recording. For a wide-angle view under the eaves choose the IPC-T249HA-LU turret; for hybrid IR/white light without audio, the IPC-B149HAA-LU ColorVu 3.0.
What you'll need with it
- A PoE NVR such as the NVR-104H-D/4P or NVR-108H-D/8P — one Cat5e/Cat6 cable carries power, video and audio.
- Enable audio on the channel in the NVR menu to record sound.
- The free HiLookVision or Hik-Connect app for live view, playback and alerts.
Frequently asked questions
What difference does the 4mm lens make?
A narrower field of view (around 80° rather than 100°+) and more detail at distance. Choose 4mm when the subject is 10–25m away; choose 2.8mm to cover a wide area close to the camera.
Is the white light always on at night?
It comes on when the scene is too dark for colour and can be dimmed or scheduled. There is no infrared on this model.
Will it work with my Hikvision NVR?
Yes — same protocol; enable audio per channel. ONVIF is supported for other brands.
