Who is the IPC-T280HAD-LUF/SL for?

The 8MP version of HiLook’s 180° panoramic turret: two 4MP sensors stitched into one seamless wide image, so a single camera on a flat wall covers the whole half-circle in front of it with enough detail to zoom into a face or plate at the far edge. Active deterrence (strobe and warning tone on person/vehicle detection), microphone and speaker, and infrared night vision are built in. Choose it over the 6MP IPC-T260HAD-LUF/SL when the area is larger — a wide commercial frontage, a car park, a long garden — and identification matters at the edges. Bullet version for pole or wall-arm mounting: IPC-B480HAD-LUF/SL.

What you’ll need with it

• A 4K (8MP) PoE NVR — NVR-104H-D/4P or NVR-108H-D/8P; one channel, one cable.
• A flat vertical wall so the 180° view is level; more storage than a standard 4MP camera.
• The free HiLookVision or Hik-Connect app.

Frequently asked questions

6MP or 8MP panoramic?

8MP when the area is wide and you need identifiable detail at the edges; 6MP is enough for a typical house frontage or garden.

Does it use one NVR channel?

Yes — the two sensors are stitched inside the camera into a single stream.

Is the night vision in colour?

No, this model is infrared. The 6MP IPC-T269HAD-LUF/SL is the ColorVu panoramic.
