• DH-IPC-HFW3666EP-AS-AUS bullet camera

• A PoE NVR or an 802.3af PoE switch, or a 12 VDC supply
• Cat5e or Cat6 cable to the camera
• A recorder, NAS or microSD card (up to 256 GB) for the footage

01

Run one cable

Cat5e or Cat6 to a PoE NVR or an 802.3af PoE switch. The camera draws up to 6.5 W on PoE. A 12 VDC supply also works.

02

Fix the bracket

Screw the base to the wall or eave, or add Dahua's PFA130-E junction box or PFA152-E pole mount, then aim the camera.

03

Add it to the recorder

Set the password in a browser or Smart PSS, then add it to a Dahua NVR, DSS or the DMSS app. ONVIF Profile S, G and T recorders also work.

04

Set the rules

Draw tripwire or intrusion zones, tick human and vehicle, and turn on SMD 4.0 for filtered motion alerts.

Recorder

A Dahua WizSense AI NVR

Powers and records the camera on one cable and adds Quick Pick search of people and vehicles from SMD events.

Power

An 802.3af PoE switch

If the recorder has no free PoE ports. Allow 6.5 W for this camera.

Mounting

Dahua PFA130-E junction box

Dahua's optional box for this bullet. It hides the cable tail under the bracket. The PFA152-E adds a pole mount.

Cabling

Cat5e or Cat6 cable

One run per camera, up to the usual 100 m Ethernet limit.

Driveways

The car, the gate and the path to the front door in one view.

Backyards

Fences, sheds and side gates, with IR to 30 m after dark.

Shopfronts

Doors and footpaths, with audio from the built-in microphone.

Warehouses

Roller doors and loading bays from under the eave.

Small offices

Entries and car spaces, with alerts only for people and vehicles.

Farms and sheds

Machinery sheds and yards, rated −40 °C to +60 °C.

Is a recorder included?

No. This listing is the camera only. It records to a Dahua NVR, a NAS, FTP or a microSD card of up to 256 GB.

Which lens is it?

2.8 mm, F1.4, covering 97° across. Dahua also makes this model with a 3.6 mm lens (80° across); ask us if you need that one.

How is it powered?

By 802.3af PoE or 12 VDC. It draws up to 6.5 W on PoE or 5.3 W on 12 VDC.

What frame rate does it record at?

Up to 25/30 fps at the full 6MP (3072 × 2048).

How far does the IR reach?

Up to 30 m from one IR LED, per Dahua's current datasheet. In colour it works down to 0.005 lux at F1.4.

How far away can it pick out a person?

With the 2.8 mm lens Dahua's DORI figures are 63.6 m to detect, 12.7 m to recognise and 6.4 m to identify.

What does SMD 4.0 do?

Smart Motion Detection classifies what caused the motion and filters out things that are not people or vehicles, such as animals, so you get fewer false alerts.

Which smart rules does it run?

Tripwire and intrusion, each able to sort people from vehicles, plus SMD 4.0 and AI SSA. Dahua does not list loitering, face detection or people counting for this model.

Does it record sound?

Yes. It has a built-in microphone, plus an audio input and output (RCA) for an external microphone or speaker. It has no built-in speaker or siren.

Will it work with a non-Dahua recorder?

It supports ONVIF Profile S, G and T and works with Milestone and Genetec. Quick Pick and Smart Search need a Dahua NVR.

What warranty does it have?

Dahua gives its 3 Series network cameras a 3-year (36-month) manufacturer warranty under Dahua Australia's warranty policy. Claims are handled in Australia through InFront Technologies: call 1300 736 970 or email [email protected].

Who can install the cable?

Concealed data cabling to the camera is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and needs an ACMA-registered cabler. Plugging a patch lead into an existing outlet does not.
