Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649TP-ZS-IL-27135 - 6MP Smart Dual Light Eyeball Network Camera

Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649TP-ZS-IL-27135 — 6MP Eyeball IP Camera

The DH-IPC-HDW3649TP-ZS-IL-27135 is a 6MP Dahua eyeball camera with a motorised 2.7mm-13.5mm varifocal lens, letting the field of view be adjusted remotely on installation without swapping lenses. Its Smart Dual Light system combines infrared and warm-light illuminators, giving up to 50m of night-time coverage in either monochrome IR or full colour under the warm light. Deep learning-based human and vehicle classification (SMD 4.0) with AcuPick search helps cut false alarms and speeds up review of recorded footage, and a built-in microphone captures audio alongside video.

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 with a motorised 2.7mm-13.5mm lens, this eyeball camera suits entrances, car parks and general site coverage where the exact zoom level isn't known until installation, and its human/vehicle AI helps filter out irrelevant motion alerts on busier sites. The compact eyeball housing and IP67 rating make it a good fit for external walls, soffits and covered areas needing discreet, weatherproof coverage.

Key specification

What you will need

• A PoE NVR that supports 6MP recording, to power and record from this camera
• Cat5e or Cat6 cabling run from the camera back to the NVR location, keeping runs within standard PoE distance limits
• For long cable runs or where you need to branch to multiple cameras, add a PoE switch between camera and NVR
• If installing in a public-facing area, appropriate GDPR signage to notify the public that CCTV is in operation

Frequently asked questions

Will this camera work with a non-Dahua NVR?

Yes. It supports ONVIF (Profile S, G, T and M), so it can be added to most third-party NVR and VMS systems, though some Dahua-specific AI features may only be fully accessible via a Dahua NVR.

Does it need a separate power supply?

No — it can be powered entirely over the network cable using PoE (802.3af) from a PoE NVR or switch. A 12VDC power supply is also supported if PoE isn't available.

How much storage will I need?

The camera supports a microSD card up to 512GB for local storage, or can record to an NVR or NAS — storage needs depend on frame rate, number of cameras and how long you want to retain footage.

Can I adjust the zoom after installation?

Yes, the lens is motorised vari-focal (2.7mm-13.5mm), so the field of view can be adjusted remotely from the camera's web interface or NVR menu without physically changing the lens.
