Common questions

What does Smart Dual Light do?

Dahua says the IR illuminator is normally on at night. When a target appears in the monitoring area the light comes on and the camera records full-colour video, then returns to IR when the target leaves, which reduces light pollution. See our Smart Dual Light guide.

What changes between 12MP and 5MP?

The 12MP main stream is 4480 × 2512 at up to 15 fps. At 3072 × 1728 (5MP) it runs at up to 25/30 fps.

Does it record sound or connect to an alarm?

Yes. This is the -AS version, with a built-in microphone, 1 audio input and 1 audio output (RCA), and 1 alarm input and 1 alarm output. Dahua lists the audio and alarm connections for -AS models only.

How far can it see at night?

IR and warm light each reach up to 30 m. Dahua gives a minimum illumination of 0.008 lux at F1.6 in colour, 0.0008 lux in black and white and 0 lux with the illuminator on, and says Starlight technology helps in low light. See our Starlight low light guide.

Can I use it outdoors?

Yes. Dahua rates the metal housing IP67 and lists an operating range of -40 °C to +60 °C, so this camera can be used as an outdoor camera.

Will it work with a non-Dahua NVR?

Dahua lists ONVIF (Profile S, G and T) support. Smart Search works with a Dahua Smart NVR.

How is it powered?

By 12 VDC (±30%) or PoE (802.3af). Dahua gives a basic power consumption of 3.0 W on PoE and a maximum of 10.1 W.
