Technical specification

Detection distances (DORI)

DORI is the EN 62676-4 way of describing how far a viewer can detect, observe, recognise and identify a person. It does not show the working distance of the AI functions.

Works with

• Dahua DH-PFA154 pole mount bracket (listed by Dahua as an optional accessory for this camera)
• Dahua DH-PFM900-E-V2 integrated mount tester

What you will need

• A PoE+ (802.3at) switch or recorder port, or a 12 VDC or 24 VAC power supply.
• An NVR or video management system to make full use of the on-camera analytics (ANPR lists, face database, metadata search), and Cat5e or Cat6 cabling.
• A PoE switch between the camera and the recorder for long runs or several cameras.
• Clear CCTV signage where the camera covers a public or shared area, even with privacy protection enabled.

Common questions

Does this camera do ANPR on board?

Yes. Dahua lists ANPR for this model: it recognises the licence plate, vehicle type and vehicle colour for vehicles moving at up to 60km/h, and supports up to 10,000 blocklist and 10,000 allowlist records.

What does WizMind X mean?

WizMind is Dahua's AI camera range, built around deep learning algorithms, and Dahua lists this camera in its WizMind X Series. Read more in our guide to Dahua WizMind cameras.

Can it run two AI functions at once?

Yes. Dahua says two intelligent functions can be enabled at the same time, for example face recognition with people counting, or PPE detection with IVS.

How is it powered?

By 12 VDC, 24 VAC, PoE+ (802.3at) or ePoE. Basic power consumption is 7.3W on 12 VDC and 10.6W on PoE.

Does it have anti-corrosion protection?

Dahua lists anti-corrosion protection as optional and supported only by its ATC model. This DC12AC24V-X model is rated IP67 and IK10.

How far can the infrared see?

The IR illumination reaches 60m. For a person, Dahua gives detect, observe, recognise and identify distances of 60.4m, 24.2m, 12.1m and 6.0m at the wide end of the lens (see the DORI table above).

Will it work with a recorder that is not Dahua?

It supports ONVIF Profile S, G, T and M, so it can be added to compatible third-party recorders. Dahua's AcuPick and refined intelligent search work together with its Smart NVR.

Is it waterproof and weatherproof?

Yes. Dahua rates it IP67 and IK10, for operation from -40°C to +65°C, so it can be mounted outdoors.

Is it a smart camera?

Yes. ANPR, face recognition, people counting, video metadata and PPE detection run on the camera itself, and two intelligent functions can be enabled at the same time.
