The Dahua IPC-PDW3859P-A-180-E2-AS-PV is a 180 degree panoramic eyeball camera from the TiOC active deterrence range of Dahua's WizSense 3 Series, which Dahua lists as the IPC-PDW3859-A180-AS-PV. Dahua describes it as a 2x4MP duo splicing camera: the main stream is one 4320 x 1944 image at up to 20fps, covering 180 degrees horizontally and 72 degrees vertically.
Four multi-core lights give IR and warm light up to 30m. For active deterrence it has a red and blue warning light and 11 built-in alarm sounds, and a dual microphone and speaker allow two-way talk.
AI functions include intrusion, tripwire, stay and loitering detection, SMD 4.0, face detection and AcuPick. It has 120dB WDR, Micro SD up to 512GB and an IP67 metal housing rated for -40 to +60 degrees C, and it needs PoE+ (802.3at) or 12V DC, with a maximum draw of 14.8W on PoE.
Pick the colour from the options above:
| Version | Lens | Colour | Field of view |
|---|---|---|---|
| DH-IPC-PDW3859P-A-180-E2-AS-PV | 2 × 2.8mm | White | H 180°, V 72° |
| DH-IPC-PDW3859P-A180-E2-AS-BLK | 2 × 2.8mm | Black | H 180°, V 72° |
As a Dahua CCTV camera it suits wide areas that would otherwise need two or three cameras: building frontages, forecourts, gardens, yards, car parks and warehouse doors. SMD 4.0 and perimeter protection make it an AI camera that classifies people and vehicles with stay and loitering detection, and when an alarm is triggered the camera can flash its red and blue lights, play a warning sound and let you speak to the person through its speaker.

It is one camera with two 4MP sensors. The images are spliced inside the camera, so your recorder sees a single 180° stream and uses one channel.
Dahua specifies PoE+ (802.3at) because the camera can draw up to 14.8W with the warm light and deterrence running. It can also run from 12V DC.
Yes. It has built-in dual microphones and speakers for two-way talk through the Dahua DMSS app or a compatible Dahua recorder.
Yes. It is an SD card camera: Dahua lists Micro SD storage up to 512GB, plus FTP, SFTP and NAS.
Both versions are the same camera. Choose white for most rendered and painted walls, or black for dark fascias and cladding.
Yes. Dahua lists DMSS among its management software, with mobile clients for iOS and Android.
A red and blue warning light with a flash duration of 5 to 30 seconds, and 11 built-in alarm sounds. Custom sounds can be imported, and the volume and number of repeats can be set.
It supports ONVIF Profile S, G, T and M, so it can be added to compatible third-party recorders. Smart Search works with a Dahua Smart NVR.
