Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3541TP-ZAS-27135 - 5MP AI Bullet Network Camera

Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3541TP-ZAS-27135 — 5MP Bullet IP Camera

The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3541TP-ZAS-27135 is a 5MP WDR bullet-style IP camera with a motorised varifocal lens, letting installers adjust field of view on site without swapping optics. Onboard deep-learning analytics classify human and vehicle activity to help cut false alerts, 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. The 5MP sensor and motorised lens suit entrances, car parks and perimeter runs where installers need to fine-tune the view after mounting, while the human/vehicle classification helps reduce nuisance alerts on longer-range shots. It works well as part of a wider 5MP IP system or mixed into an existing PoE NVR setup where extra detail is needed at a specific point.

Key specification

What you will need

• A PoE NVR that supports 5MP recording, with enough channels and PoE ports for this camera
• Cat5e/Cat6 cabling to carry both video and power from the camera back to the NVR (no separate power supply needed at the camera)
• A PoE switch if you're running more cameras than your NVR has ports for, or need to branch runs across a site
• Appropriate GDPR signage where the camera covers public areas or neighbouring property

Frequently asked questions

Will this camera work with a non-Dahua NVR?

Yes. It supports ONVIF, so it can be added to most third-party NVRs as a generic ONVIF device, though some Dahua-specific features may only be available on a Dahua NVR.

Does the camera need a separate power supply?

No, provided it's connected to a PoE-enabled NVR or PoE switch. Power and video both travel over the same Cat5e/Cat6 cable.

How much storage do I need?

This depends on resolution, frame rate, number of cameras and how long you want to retain footage. As a guide, higher-resolution 5MP recording uses more storage per camera than 2MP or 4MP, so size your NVR's hard drive accordingly.

Can I use the built-in microphone for two-way audio?

The built-in microphone captures audio alongside video for evidential purposes; check your NVR's audio input support if you also need two-way talk-back.
