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

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

The DH-IPC-HDW3649HP-AS-PV-0280B-PRO-Grey is a 6MP eyeball-style network camera from Dahua, fitted with a 2.8mm fixed lens and IR illumination to 30m. It combines WizColor full-colour low-light imaging with Active Deterrence — red and blue warning lights plus an audible alarm — to help identify and discourage activity around entrances, car parks and perimeters.

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, this eyeball camera suits entrances, reception areas, car parks and perimeter walls where a compact, tamper-resistant housing and active deterrence are useful. Its built-in dual microphone and speaker also let staff issue live audio warnings without extra hardware.

Key specification

What you will need

• A PoE NVR with 6MP resolution support to record and manage this camera — see our NVRs
• Cat5e or Cat6 cabling to carry both video and power from camera to NVR
• For runs beyond your NVR's PoE budget, or to branch to multiple cameras, add a PoE switch
• Where the camera covers a public area, appropriate GDPR-compliant CCTV signage

Frequently asked questions

Will this camera work with a non-Dahua NVR?

Yes — it supports ONVIF (Profile S, Profile G and Profile T), so it will connect to most third-party NVRs, though some Dahua-specific AI features may only be available with a Dahua recorder.

Does it need a separate power supply?

No — it can be powered over a single Cat5e/Cat6 cable via PoE (802.3af), or via a standalone 12VDC supply if you are not using a PoE NVR or switch.

How much storage will I need?

Storage depends on resolution, frame rate and how many cameras are recording continuously; a 6MP camera recording continuously will typically need more capacity than a 2MP or 4MP model, so size your NVR's hard drive accordingly or ask us for a recommendation.

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

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