8MP turret with its own light.
Warm LEDs switch on for people and vehicles.
This is the VSIPP-8DIRG-I3: a white metal 4K turret with a 2.8 mm lens, AI people and vehicle detection, a built-in microphone and two warm LEDs that light the scene in colour when someone is detected.
In one sentence: the VSIPP-8DIRG-I3 is a VIP Vision Professional AI 8MP (3840 × 2160) fixed turret with a 2.8 mm F1.4 lens, a 110° view, AI people and vehicle detection, warm LED plus 30 m IR lighting, a built-in mic and an IP67 metal housing.
Camera only. Recorder and cabling are separate.
This listing is one turret camera. It needs a PoE port or a 12 VDC supply for power, and a recorder, NAS or microSD card for the footage.
- VSIPP-8DIRG-I3 turret camera
- A PoE NVR, or an 802.3af PoE switch
- Cat5e or Cat6 cable to the camera
- A recorder, NAS or microSD card (up to 512 GB) for the footage
- The VSBKTA139 junction box if the cable can't go straight into the wall or ceiling
A security light and a camera in one.
When the camera picks up a person or a vehicle, its two warm LEDs switch on. The intruder knows they have been seen, and the footage turns to full colour. The rest of the night, two IR LEDs cover up to 30 m. Smart Motion Detection 4.0 only flags people and vehicles, which cuts false alarms from other movement.

Lens and lights
2.8 mm, F1.4, 110° across.
3840 × 2160 at up to 25 fps from a 1/2.7" 8MP sensor. The window under the lens holds two warm LEDs and two IR LEDs with a 30 m range. Colour works down to 0.007 lux, and the camera records at 0 lux with the lights on.

Housing
Metal, IP67, −40 °C to 60 °C.
A metal housing of 0.53 kg, rated IP67. The ball pans 0–360°, tilts 0–80° and rotates 0–360° to line up the view. 120 dB true WDR, BLC and HLC keep detail against bright doorways and headlights.
How it goes in
From cable to first alert.
01
Run one cable
Cat5e or Cat6 to a PoE NVR or an 802.3af switch. The camera draws up to 9.5 W on PoE, or up to 7.4 W from 12 VDC.
02
Fix the base
Four Ø4.5 mm holes on a Ø69 mm circle. Use the VSBKTA139 junction box, or a VIP Vision wall, ceiling or pole bracket, where the cable needs cover.
03
Add it to the recorder
Add it to a VIP Vision NVR or an ONVIF recorder, set a strong password and record the 8MP main stream.
04
Set the AI rules
Turn on SMD 4.0, or draw tripwire and intrusion zones, tick people, vehicles or both, and choose when the warm LEDs come on.

What this camera does not include
Recorder
A VIP Vision Professional AI NVR
Powers and records the camera on one cable. VIP Vision lists SMD 4.0, perimeter protection and AcuPick search with its own NVRs.
Power
An 802.3af PoE switch
If the recorder has no PoE ports. Allow 9.5 W for this camera.
Mounting
VSBKTA139 junction box
VIP Vision's listed junction box for this turret. The datasheet also lists the VSBKTB204W wall bracket and ceiling and pole kits.
Storage
A microSD card
Optional, up to 512 GB, for recording in the camera or as a backup.
Where it is used
Where a turret with its own light fits.
Homes
Driveways, side gates and back doors, where a light that switches on for people puts most intruders off.

Common questions
Does it have a siren or a flashing strobe?
No. Its lights are two warm LEDs and two IR LEDs. For a siren and a red and blue strobe, look at VIP Vision's VSIPP-8DG-ID4 deterrence turret.
Is a recorder included?
No. This listing is the camera only. It records to a PoE NVR, a NAS or FTP server, or a microSD card of up to 512 GB.
How is it powered?
By PoE (IEEE 802.3af), drawing up to 9.5 W. It can also run from 12 VDC at up to 7.4 W, using a supply bought separately.
Does it record in colour at night?
Yes, when the warm LEDs are on. They switch on when a person or vehicle is detected, or you can control them manually. Otherwise the IR LEDs give black-and-white footage out to 30 m.
How far does it see?
With the 2.8 mm lens VIP Vision rates it to detect at 85 m, observe at 34 m, recognise at 17 m and identify at 8 m. The lights reach 30 m.
What does the AI detection do?
Smart Motion Detection 4.0 and perimeter protection (tripwire and intrusion) tell people and vehicles apart from other movement, so you get fewer false alarms. VIP Vision lists these with its own NVRs.
What is AcuPick?
A search on a VIP Vision NVR that finds people or vehicles by attributes such as colour and follows their movements across all AcuPick cameras on the system.
Does it record sound?
Yes. It has a built-in microphone. There is no speaker and no audio input or output connector.
Can it record without an NVR?
Yes. It records to a microSD card of up to 512 GB, or to a NAS, FTP or SFTP server on the network.
Will it work with a non-VIP Vision recorder?
VIP Vision lists ONVIF, so most ONVIF recorders can record its video. SMD 4.0 and AcuPick searches are listed for VIP Vision NVRs.
Can it be mounted outside?
Yes. It has a metal housing rated IP67 and runs from −40 °C to 60 °C at up to 95% humidity.
What is the difference from the VSIPP-6DIRG-I3?
Resolution. This camera is 8MP (3840 × 2160); the 6DIRG-I3 is 6MP (3288 × 1850) and a little more sensitive in colour (0.005 lux). Lens, lights, housing and power are the same.

Installation and safety
Low-voltage camera. PoE (802.3af, up to 9.5 W) or 12 VDC (up to 7.4 W). There is no mains connection on the camera. A new power point for a 12 V supply needs a licensed electrician.
Cabling. Concealed data cabling is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and needs an ACMA-registered cabler.
Audio and privacy. Recording conversations is covered by state and territory surveillance laws. Check them, and use signage, before you switch the microphone on.
What it does not do. No siren, no strobe, no speaker, no alarm inputs or outputs, and no Wi-Fi.
