Uniarch IPC-T1P8-AF28KC-B black 8MP 4K Tri-guard turret camera with a warning light, speaker and two-way audio, made for dark exteriors. 30 m IR, IP67, PoE.
This is the Uniarch IPC-T1P8-AF28KC-B. The black 8MP (4K) Tri-guard turret, for charcoal and black exteriors. It stays low-key on the wall until someone crosses your line, then the warning light comes on and the speaker sounds.
In one sentence: the IPC-T1P8-AF28KC-B is a black 8MP (3840 × 2160) Tri-guard turret with a warning light, speaker and mic, person and vehicle filtering, a 2.8 mm F1.6 lens, 106.7° view, 30 m IR and IP67, powered by PoE.
One camera, one Cat6 cable.
Video and power share a single Cat6 run from a PoE recorder or switch. Mounts and a memory card are optional.
It has the most detail of the Tri-guard turrets: identify a person at 8.7 m and recognise at 17.4 m, with colour to 0.003 lux. The black finish suits modern homes, shopfronts and dark soffits.
Finish
The warning light sits below the lens in a black eyeball. It pans 360°, tilts 0–90° and rotates 360° in the base.
Sound
Talk to visitors from the app through the built-in speaker, and hear them through the mic. The same speaker plays the warning sound.
How it goes in
01
High enough to be out of easy reach, close enough to see faces, with a route for one Cat6 cable. Under an eave keeps sun and rain off the lens.
02
Screw the base to the wall or eave, or onto a TR-JB03-G-IN junction box so the cable joint is enclosed.
03
Run Cat6 to a PoE port on the NVR or a PoE switch. The camera powers up from the cable.
04
Turn the eyeball to frame the view, add it to the NVR or app, then draw the lines and zones that should set off the light and sound.

Model codes shortened from IPC-…-AF28KC. Every Tri-guard model has a warning light, a speaker and mic with two-way audio, person and vehicle filtering, 30 m IR, microSD up to 256GB, IP67 and PoE (802.3af) or 12 V DC. Figures from the Uniarch datasheets.
When someone crosses a line or walks into a zone you have drawn, the camera switches on its warning light and plays a warning sound through its speaker. The person knows straight away they have been seen, which is often enough to make them leave before anything happens. This is what Uniarch calls active deterrence.
Much less often than plain motion detection. The camera sorts what it sees into people, cars and bikes, and filters out most false alarms from leaves, birds and changing light. You choose whether people, vehicles or both trigger the alarm.
Yes. It has a microphone and a speaker with two-way audio, so you can listen in and speak to a visitor or an intruder from the app or the NVR.
No. The light and sound only go off for the smart events you link them to. You can leave them off and use the camera for recording and alerts only.
Yes. Same 8MP 4K picture, warning light, speaker and smart detection. Only the housing colour differs.
Uniarch makes black versions of the junction box and wall mount (TR-JB03-G-IN-BLACK and TR-WM03-D-IN-BLACK). We list the white ones; ask us if you want black.
Uniarch and Uniview NVRs find it on their PoE ports and add it automatically. Other recorders that support ONVIF Profile S, G or T can add it too, although the smart events may only come through on Uniarch and Uniview.
Yes. View it through your Uniarch NVR in the Uniarch app, or add the camera to the app on its own. Live view in a web browser works without a plug-in in current Chrome, Firefox and Edge.
Yes. Fit a microSD card of up to 256GB and it records on the camera itself. With an NVR, the card also covers network drop-outs: ANR sends the missed footage to the recorder when the link returns.
By PoE (IEEE 802.3af) over the same Cat6 cable as the video, from a PoE NVR or switch. Without PoE, it runs on a 12 V DC supply. It draws 10.5 W at most.
Uniarch’s video compression. It keeps the same picture as H.265 in less space, so the recorder holds more days of footage. H.265, H.264 and MJPEG are there too.

Power. PoE (IEEE 802.3af) or 12 V DC ±25%, 10.5 W maximum. Use one or the other.
Weather. IP67. Works from −30 °C to 60 °C. Seal the cable entry, or use a junction box where the joint would be exposed.
