Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3841EM-S-S2 — 8MP Eyeball IP Camera
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3841EM-S-S2 is a fixed-focal eyeball network camera delivering 8MP resolution with WizSense deep-learning analytics for human and vehicle classification. It records up to three simultaneous streams, carries a built-in microphone for real-time audio, and is IP67-rated for outdoor use, with support for microSD storage up to 256GB.
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 8MP, the HDW3841EM-S-S2 suits sites that need clear detail over wider areas, such as car parks, warehouse yards and retail exteriors, while its compact eyeball housing keeps installation discreet on ceilings and soffits. The WizSense human/vehicle classification helps cut false motion alerts on busier sites.

Frequently asked questions
Will this camera work with a non-Dahua NVR?
Yes. The DH-IPC-HDW3841EM-S-S2 supports ONVIF, so it can be added to most third-party NVR and VMS systems, though some Dahua-specific analytics features may only be available with a Dahua NVR.
Does it need a separate power supply?
No, if your NVR or switch supplies PoE the camera is powered over the same Cat5e/Cat6 cable as the video signal. Without PoE, a separate 12V power supply would be required.
How much storage do I need?
Storage depends on recording settings, frame rate and how many days of footage you need to keep. As a starting point, the camera itself supports a microSD card of up to 256GB for local/edge storage alongside NVR recording.
Can I use the built-in microphone for two-way audio?
The built-in microphone captures audio for real-time monitoring and recording alongside the video stream; check your NVR/VMS audio support if you need synchronised audio playback.
