Dahua DH-IPC-HDBW3841EP-AS-0280B-S2 — 8MP Vandal-proof Dome IP Camera
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDBW3841EP-AS-0280B-S2 is an 8MP vandal-proof dome network camera fitted with a fixed 2.8mm lens. It uses deep learning-based analytics to classify humans and vehicles separately from other movement, supports 3 simultaneous video streams with adaptive bitstream control to reduce storage costs, and includes a built-in microphone for real-time audio capture.
Who is it for?
IP cameras carry video and PoE power over one Cat5e/Cat6 cable to a PoE NVR — ideal when cabling from scratch or wanting resolutions/analytics beyond coax. This 8MP vandal-proof dome suits entrances, retail units, offices and car parks where high-detail identification and AI-based person/vehicle filtering are needed. The IP67 and IK10 ratings make it well suited to exposed external mounting positions without sacrificing image quality.

Frequently asked questions
Can this camera be used with a non-Dahua NVR?
Yes. As an ONVIF-compliant IP camera, it can be added to most third-party NVRs that support the ONVIF standard, though some Dahua-specific features may only be available when paired with a Dahua NVR.
Does this camera need a separate power supply?
No. As an IP camera it can be powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet) from a compatible PoE NVR or PoE switch over the same cable that carries the video, so a separate power supply is not normally needed at the camera.
How much storage do I need?
This camera supports a microSD card up to 256GB for local edge storage, or can record continuously to a PoE NVR with its own hard drive — the storage you need depends on resolution, frame rate and how many days of footage you want to keep.
What does the WizSense AI detection do?
The built-in deep learning analytics classify humans and vehicles separately from other movement, cutting down false alerts from pets, weather and shadows compared with basic motion detection.
