Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649HP-AS-PV-0280B-PRO - 6MP WizColor Eyeball Network Camera

Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649HP-AS-PV-0280B-PRO — 6MP Eyeball IP Camera

The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649HP-AS-PV-0280B-PRO is a 6MP eyeball-style IP camera built around a 1/1.8" CMOS sensor and a 2.8mm fixed lens, giving a wide field of view with IR illumination out to 30m. WizColor low-light processing keeps images usable after dark, and built-in red/blue warning lights with an audible alarm add active deterrence on top of standard recording.

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. At 6MP the HDW3649HP-AS-PV-0280B-PRO suits entrances, car parks and perimeter points where wide-angle coverage and active deterrence matter, while its IP67 metal housing handles permanent outdoor mounting. The built-in mic, speaker and warning lights let it double as a visual/audio deterrent alongside standard recording, making it a good fit for small retail units, warehouses and residential perimeters.

Key specification

What you will need

• A PoE NVR with matching resolution support to record and power the camera — see our NVRs
• Cat5e/Cat6 cabling run from the camera to the NVR or PoE switch (max 100m per run)
• A PoE switch if you need to extend runs or branch to multiple cameras beyond your NVR's own PoE ports
• Clear signage to meet GDPR/data protection requirements wherever this camera records public areas

Frequently asked questions

Will this work with a non-Dahua NVR?

Yes. It supports ONVIF (Profile S, G and T), so it will connect to most third-party NVRs and VMS software, though some Dahua-specific AI features may only surface fully on a Dahua NVR.

Does it need a separate power supply?

No — it can be powered over PoE (802.3af) through the same cable that carries video, or via a standalone 12VDC supply if you prefer not to run PoE.

How much storage will I need?

At 6MP with H.265 compression, storage needs depend on frame rate and retention period — our team can help size a Micro SD card or NVR storage to match how long you need to keep footage.

Can I use the built-in mic and speaker for two-way talk?

Yes — the camera has a built-in dual mic and speaker, so with a compatible NVR or app you can listen in and talk through the camera in real time.
