Frequently asked questions
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 8 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 72 W. In practice that's enough for 8 standard bullets/turrets at 5-9 W each, or about 2-3 high-power PTZ/IR-heavy cameras at 25 W each plus a few standard cams. Plan for ~9 W average per channel.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about a 5-Series NVR.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but standard recording works with any ONVIF-compliant camera.
What's the difference vs the 16-channel NVR4216-16P?
The 4216-16P has 16 IP channels, 16 PoE ports (130 W budget), 2 SATA bays (~32 TB), 4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out terminals, RS-232 and an internal universal-voltage PSU. The 4108HS-8P (this model) is the compact 8-channel sibling — 8 PoE @ 72 W, single HDD bay, no alarm I/O, external 53 VDC adaptor. Same AI feature set on both.
What hard drive should I install?
Use a surveillance-rated SATA HDD up to 16 TB — Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk. Standard desktop drives are not rated for 24/7 recording and will fail prematurely. For 8 cameras at 4 MP H.265+ on motion-record, a 4-6 TB drive gives roughly 30 days; an 8 TB drive gives 45-60 days.
Is the DHI-NVR4108HS-8P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
Does it have alarm input / output terminals?
No — this compact chassis omits physical alarm I/O and RS-232 to keep the footprint small. If you need to wire in PIRs, sirens or gate triggers via hardware terminals, step up to the 16-channel DHI-NVR4216-16P-AI/ANZ (4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out) or use camera-side alarm linkage instead.

Frequently asked questions
Is 80 Mbps bandwidth enough for 4 cameras?
Yes — for 4 cameras at up to 4 MP each running Smart H.265+, comfortably within the 80 Mbps envelope. If you're planning to run all four channels at 8 MP @ 30 fps with the highest bitrate, you'll hit the ceiling — step up to the NVR4108HS-8P (256 Mbps) for headroom. For typical home and small-shop installs, 80 Mbps is plenty.
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 4 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 36 W. That comfortably runs 4 standard bullets / turrets at 5-9 W each. If you're planning a PTZ or IR-heavy camera (~15-20 W), you may need to keep the other ports on lower-draw cameras or use an external PoE injector.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about a 5-Series NVR.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but standard recording works with any ONVIF-compliant camera.
What hard drive should I install?
Use a surveillance-rated SATA HDD up to 16 TB — Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk. Standard desktop drives are not rated for 24/7 recording and will fail prematurely. For 4 cameras at 4 MP H.265+ on motion-record, a 2-4 TB drive gives roughly 30-60 days of retention.
Is the DHI-NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
Why is the network port only 10/100 Mbps?
The NVR4104HS-P-AI/ANZ uses Fast Ethernet on the uplink because the recorder's total bandwidth is 80 Mbps — well within Fast Ethernet capacity. The 8-channel and 16-channel siblings use Gigabit because their 256 Mbps capacity exceeds 100 Mbps. This isn't a bottleneck for this model; the 80 Mbps cap is the same number whether the port is 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps.

Dahua TiOC 3.0 · 4K AcuPick · WizSense
Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 — 8MP 4K TiOC 3.0 AcuPick Active Deterrence Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the 8MP flagship of Dahua's TiOC 3.0 line-up — the camera Australian installers specify when a customer wants full 4K detail, AI detection, visible strobe deterrence, audible siren warnings and full-colour night evidence in a single unit. Built around a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor, a 2.8 mm wide-angle lens delivering a 106° horizontal field of view, and Dahua's WizSense AI engine, it captures crisp 3840 × 2160 detail by day and full-colour evidence by night while drawing under 10 W on standard PoE.
As part of the Dahua WizSense Series with TiOC 3.0 firmware, the S2 adds on-camera AcuPick indexing, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering and customisable voice broadcast on top of the proven red/blue strobe + siren chain. The vandal-resistant metal housing, IP67 seal and −40 °C to +60 °C operating range make it a confident choice for driveways, perimeters, retail frontages and tradie yards across every Australian climate. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK).

Why Choose the Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 in Australia
Australian installers specify the 3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 because it does three things at once: it deters intrusion before it happens, captures 4K evidence-grade colour at the moment of the event, and makes after-the-fact target search trivial with AcuPick. The extra 33% pixel count over a 6MP sensor pays off where it matters — number plates at the driveway, faces at the front door, the brand of the bag a courier dropped at 11 pm. Whether it's a Western Sydney driveway, a Brisbane shopfront, a Perth tradie yard or a Tasmanian holiday home, this 8MP turret performs.
TiOC 3.0 — Three-in-One Active Deterrence
Red & blue strobe + on-board siren + custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment AI confirms a human or vehicle — a complete deterrence chain in one camera, no extra hardware, no operator required.
True 4K Detail Across 106° of Coverage
Eight megapixels (3840 × 2160) across a 2.8 mm wide-angle lens means you cover the whole driveway in one camera and still digitally zoom into a number plate or face afterward without pixelation.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute — clothing colour, vehicle type, direction — so you find any face or plate across a week of footage in seconds, not hours.
Smart Dual-Light Night Vision
Invisible IR by default (30 m), auto-switching to a 30 m warm-light LED when a person or vehicle is detected — capturing clothing colour, hair colour and vehicle paint in full colour, exactly when it matters.
SMD 4.0 — Near-Zero False Alarms
Dahua's newest Smart Motion Detection runs on-camera, classifying humans and vehicles while ignoring spiders, possums, gum trees, headlights and washing on the line. Sleep through the night, not through the alarm.
Built Tough for Australia
IP67 ingress protection, metal housing, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance and a −40 °C to +60 °C operating range mean it shrugs off coastal salt, outback heat, Tasmanian frost and unstable rural mains.

IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in MICs and a 1-channel speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 512 GB
On-camera MicroSD records days of 4K footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.

Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. With 4K cameras the AcuPick payoff is even bigger: search jumps that would take an hour on a 6MP fleet finish in seconds. For any new installation we strongly recommend pairing the 3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 with one of the recorders below.
DHI-NVR5208-8P-AI/ANZ — 8 Channel · 8 PoE
Compact 1U 5-Series AcuPick NVR with 8 built-in PoE ports — ideal for a single-home or small-business install with 4–8 TiOC cameras. Full AcuPick target search and AI playback. View NVR5208-8P →

Why Step Up to 8MP / 4K Over the 6MP TiOC?
The 8MP 3849 and the 6MP 3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 share the same chassis, the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light system — the difference is pixels and reach. Three concrete reasons to specify the 8MP:
33% more pixels (4K vs 3K) — every digital zoom into recorded footage holds detail longer, critical for identifying faces, number plates and signage at distance
Wider 106° FOV — covers more of the driveway, frontage or yard from a single mounting point than the 6MP's 97°
Longer DORI ranges — Detect 91 m vs 66 m, Identify a face at 9.1 m vs 6.6 m. Same 2.8 mm lens, more usable distance
If you're protecting a wide property frontage, a multi-bay carpark, a long driveway or a retail forecourt with signage you need to read at distance, the 8MP is the better long-term choice. If you only need to cover a single doorway or a narrow side-passage, the 6MP saves money for no real loss in image quality.

3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 vs 3867EM-S-IL-ANZ — Which Dahua 8MP Should You Choose?
The DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 (TiOC 3.0) and DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ (Smart Dual-Light AcuPick) share the same 8MP / 4K sensor, the same AcuPick AI stack and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The deciding question is simple: do you want the camera to actively warn intruders, or quietly record them? If you need red/blue strobe, siren, voice broadcast and two-way talk-down, choose the 3849 TiOC. If you only need silent 4K full-colour surveillance with AcuPick search, the 3867 is the cheaper pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does TiOC 3.0 mean on the 3849?
TiOC = Three-in-One Camera: AI detection + visual deterrence (red/blue strobe) + audible deterrence (siren and voice) in a single unit. The 3849 is the 8MP / 4K flagship of the TiOC 3.0 line — same chassis as the 6MP 3649 with a higher-resolution sensor and wider 106° field of view.
Is 8MP / 4K worth the extra cost over 6MP?
If you cover wide property frontages, long driveways, multi-bay carparks or signage you need to read at distance, yes — 33% more pixels plus a wider 106° FOV and longer DORI Identify range (9.1 m vs 6.6 m on the 6MP) makes a real difference at the playback stage. For a single doorway or narrow passage, the 6MP 3649 is the better-value option.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. SMD 4.0, IVS, two-way audio and the full TiOC deterrence chain work on every Dahua AI NVR — and via ONVIF on most third-party recorders. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What's the difference between White and Black?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Can I speak through the camera?
Yes. Dual built-in microphones and a 1-channel speaker enable real-time two-way audio through the DMSS app or a compatible Dahua NVR — ideal for warning intruders, instructing couriers or speaking to family at the door.
Does this camera support facial recognition?
No — the 3849 focuses on human and vehicle classification rather than dedicated facial recognition. For most home, business and retail applications this is more than enough. If you need true facial-recognition-based access control, consider a dedicated Dahua face-recognition camera.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

Frequently asked questions
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 16 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 130 W. In practice that's enough for ~16 standard bullets/turrets at 5-7 W each, or roughly 5 high-power PTZ/IR-heavy cameras at 25 W each. Mix accordingly, or daisy-chain a PoE injector if you need more headroom.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about the NVR5208-8P-4KS3 family.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4216-16P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but recording works with any ONVIF camera.
What's the difference between the AI/ANZ and the EI version?
The AI/ANZ is the Australia / NZ-market SKU — same hardware as the global EI model, but with regional firmware, AS/NZS-compliant power supply, and a 3-year warranty backed locally in Australia. The EI is the European-region equivalent. Functionally identical; commercially region-specific.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?
A common starting point is 16 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record — roughly 10-12 TB will give you about 30 days. Fit two 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) and you're set; the NVR supports up to 16 TB per bay (~32 TB total).
Is the DHI-NVR4216-16P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
Does it rack-mount?
Yes — the 1U chassis (375 × 329 × 53 mm) fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (sold separately), or sits flat on a shelf. At just 2.6 kg without HDDs, it's also fine on a sturdy desk under a monitor.

Why Choose the Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ in Australia
Australian integrators and property owners choose the DH-IPC-HDW3867EM-S-IL-ANZ because it solves two of the biggest pain points in modern CCTV: finding a specific person or vehicle quickly in hours of footage, and getting usable colour images at night without blinding light pollution. AcuPick AI cuts incident review time from hours to seconds, while Smart Dual-Light delivers full-colour footage only when a human or vehicle is present — preserving night ambience and battery life on hybrid systems. Available in both White and Black to suit any installation aesthetic.
AcuPick AI — Find Anyone in Seconds
AcuPick uses deep learning to accurately match human and vehicle targets across live and recorded video streams. What used to take hours of manual scrubbing now takes seconds — critical for post-incident investigation on Australian retail, residential and commercial sites. Requires a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR.
Smart Dual-Light Night Vision
Intelligently switches between IR (black-and-white) and warm white LED (full colour) illumination based on real-time scene activity. Full-colour images are captured only when a human or vehicle is detected — no unnecessary light pollution, no washed-out footage.
8MP 4K Resolution
3840×2160 at 20 fps delivers forensic-quality detail — faces, licence plates and fine features captured with clarity well above standard HD cameras, meeting evidential requirements for Australian insurance and law enforcement.
SMD + IVS Analytics
Smart Motion Detection filters out irrelevant motion (animals, foliage, shadows) while IVS rules — tripwire, intrusion, abandoned object — trigger precise alerts for real events on Australian sites.
Built-In Microphone
Integrated microphone captures one-way audio alongside video — useful for reception areas, retail floors and entry points where ambient audio context adds evidential value.
IP67 · -30°C to +60°C — Built for Australia
Full IP67 dust and water ingress protection combined with an extreme operating temperature range makes this camera suitable for coastal, outback, alpine and CBD Australian environments alike.
AcuPick — How It Works
AcuPick is Dahua's deep-learning-powered target search system. When integrated with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, the camera feeds AI-analysed metadata to the NVR, which can then search across all connected cameras simultaneously for a specific person (by clothing colour, body type) or vehicle (by colour, type). This dramatically reduces investigation time for security managers, loss prevention teams and property managers across Australia.
Note: AcuPick target search functionality requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series NVR. The camera operates as a standard 8MP IP camera with all other NVRs and ONVIF-compatible systems.

Frequently asked questions
What is AcuPick and how is it different to Quick Pick?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation video search technology — it uses BOTH camera-side and NVR-side AI to extract rich attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction, action) from every frame as it records, then lets you search by a reference image OR by combined attributes. Quick Pick (on the 4-Series) does single-attribute colour/clothing search only. AcuPick is faster, more accurate, and supports both people and vehicles natively.
Do I need special cameras for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick relies on camera-side intelligence to extract attributes during recording. You need Dahua's WizSense-Plus AcuPick-ready cameras (typically the TiOC PV and 5-Series IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras will still record and recognise faces, but the full AcuPick search depth needs paired AcuPick IPCs.
What does ePoE on ports 1–8 give me?
Extended PoE — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Ports 1–8 support 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter or carpark runs. Ports 9–16 run standard PoE+ at up to 100 m.
What is N+M cluster and when do I need it?
N+M cluster lets you pair multiple 5-Series NVRs so that backup recorders automatically take over if a primary unit fails — zero footage loss for critical sites. Useful for casinos, banks, transport hubs, hospitals and any install where a single-recorder outage would breach SLA. Configure via the NVR's local GUI or DSS-Pro.
Is the DHI-NVR5216-16P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR5216-16P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 22.06) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. Standard recording works with any ONVIF camera; AcuPick and the deeper AI search features require Dahua WizSense / AcuPick IPCs.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?
For 16 × 8 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~20-25 TB for 30 days of retention. Two 16 TB drives in disk-group config will hit roughly 45-60 days. If on-board capacity isn't enough, the NVR supports iSCSI for network-attached storage expansion.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is WizSense SMD+?
SMD+ (Smart Motion Detection Plus) uses AI to distinguish humans and vehicles from other motion triggers like animals or swaying trees, dramatically reducing false alarms.
Does this camera work with Dahua NVRs?
Yes. It's fully compatible with Dahua NVRs and the DSS/DMSS platform. It also supports ONVIF for third-party NVR integration.
Can it be used outdoors in Australian conditions?
Absolutely. The IP67 rating means it's fully sealed against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for Australian outdoor environments including coastal and high-humidity areas.
Does it need a separate power supply?
No — it supports PoE (802.3af), so a single Ethernet cable from a PoE switch or NVR provides both data and power. A 12V DC adaptor can also be used.
What lens size does it come with?
The ANZ model ships with a fixed 2.8 mm lens, providing a wide field of view ideal for entry points, hallways, and open areas.
Is local storage supported without an NVR?
Yes. Insert a microSD card (up to 256 GB) and the camera records locally — useful as a standalone solution or as a backup when the NVR is offline.

Dahua WizSense · 6MP Smart Dual Light · AcuPick-ready
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3667EM-S-IL-ANZ is a 6 MP fixed-focal eyeball network camera that delivers true 24/7 full-colour surveillance for Australian homes, retail strips, warehouses and small commercial sites. Smart Dual Light technology pairs a 30 m IR illuminator with a 30 m warm-white light — IR runs silently at night, then the warm light snaps on the instant the WizSense AI detects a person or vehicle, capturing full-colour evidence of every incident while keeping light pollution to a minimum.
Built on the WizSense 3-Series platform with an independent AI chip, the HDW3667EM-S-IL-ANZ runs SMD 4.0, AI Scene Self-Adaptation and perimeter protection (tripwire + intrusion) directly on the camera, classifying people and vehicles before alarms ever reach the recorder. Pair it with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR and you can run attribute-based search — find every red car or every person in a hoodie across hours of footage in seconds. Backed by IP67 weather sealing, –40 °C to +60 °C operating range, built-in microphone and 120 dB WDR, it is engineered for the realities of the Australian climate from coastal Sydney to the Pilbara.
Smart Dual Light
30 m IR + 30 m Warm Light
WizSense AI
SMD 4.0 · AcuPick · Perimeter
True 6 MP @ 30 fps
1/2.7" CMOS image sensor outputs 3288 × 1850 at 25/30 fps with 120 dB true WDR, 3D NR, HLC and BLC — clear evidence-grade detail across high-contrast scenes like driveways, shop fronts and loading docks.
Smart Dual Light, Done Right
IR runs as the default night mode for low light-pollution. When AI detects a person or vehicle, the multi-core warm-light LED triggers automatically — recording full-colour video of the event, then returning to IR once the target leaves.
WizSense AI with SMD 4.0
Independent AI chip and deep-learning algorithm filter out branches, pets and shadows, so motion alerts only ping you for real people and vehicles. Tripwire and intrusion both classify by target type for genuinely actionable alarms.
AcuPick Search-Ready
Paired with a Dahua WizSense 5-Series AcuPick NVR (e.g. NVR5216-16P-AI/ANZ), this camera unlocks attribute-based search — locate every person wearing red or every white SUV across hours of footage in seconds.
Built-in Microphone
Onboard MIC adds synchronised audio to every recording, capturing voices and ambient sound at the camera — useful for retail, hospitality and after-hours incident investigation. Supports G.711a/Mu, G.726, G.723 and PCM.
True Australian Outdoor Spec
IP67 sealed metal housing, wide-voltage tolerance and a –40 °C to +60 °C operating range mean this camera handles full Australian summer eaves, coastal humidity, dust and rain without skipping a frame.
2.8 mm Wide-Angle View
110° horizontal field of view at 2.8 mm covers driveways, courtyards and small shop floors from a single mount. DORI: detect 84.8 m · observe 33.9 m · recognise 17.0 m · identify 8.5 m.
PoE-Simple Install
Single Cat6 run delivers both power (IEEE 802.3af PoE, 9.5 W max) and data. 12 VDC backup input plus dual-power failover keep the camera online if one source drops, ideal for mission-critical sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Smart Dual Light and how is it different from ColorVu or Full-Colour cameras?
Smart Dual Light is Dahua's hybrid approach: the IR LED runs as the default night mode for low light pollution, then the warm-white LED triggers automatically when AI detects a person or vehicle — so you get full-colour evidence of real events without flooding the property in light all night.
Is this an NDAA (Section 889) compliant camera?
No. Dahua products are not NDAA Section 889 compliant. If you require NDAA-compliant cameras for US federal, defence or critical-infrastructure projects, please contact our team for our Uniview, Hanwha or Axis options.
Does this camera support AcuPick attribute search?
Yes — the HDW3667EM-S-IL-ANZ is AcuPick-ready. Pair it with a Dahua WizSense 5-Series AcuPick NVR such as the NVR5216-16P-AI/ANZ to unlock attribute-based search across recorded footage.
Does it have two-way audio or a deterrence speaker?
No. This model has a built-in microphone for one-way audio capture only — no speaker and no strobe. If you need two-way audio and active deterrence, look at the TiOC PV range such as the IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2.
What focal length should I choose — 2.8 mm or 3.6 mm?
2.8 mm (110° horizontal) is ideal for driveways, courtyards, foyers and small shop floors. 3.6 mm (86° horizontal) gives a tighter view with more reach — better for longer car parks, side passages and corridors where you want more pixels-on-target.
Will this work with my existing Dahua NVR?
Yes. The camera is fully ONVIF Profile S/G/T/M compatible and works with all current Dahua NVR ranges. For full AcuPick attribute search and SMD 4.0 Quick Pick, pair it with a 4-Series WizSense or 5-Series AcuPick NVR.
Can I power it over PoE only?
Yes — single Cat5e/Cat6 run delivers PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and data. Typical draw is 5.3 W, max 9.5 W with WDR, warm light and AI active. A 12 V DC backup input is also available for dual-power failover.
Does CCTV Guru ship Australia-wide?
Yes. We ship to all metro and regional addresses across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart, Darwin and everywhere in between, with same-day dispatch on in-stock items ordered before 2 PM AEST.

Frequently asked questions
What is AcuPick and how is it different to Quick Pick?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation video search technology — it uses BOTH camera-side and NVR-side AI to extract rich attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction, action) from every frame as it records, then lets you search by a reference image OR by combined attributes. Quick Pick (on the 4-Series) does single-attribute colour/clothing search only. AcuPick is faster, more accurate, and supports both people and vehicles natively.
Do I need special cameras for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick relies on camera-side intelligence to extract attributes during recording. You need Dahua's AcuPick-ready cameras (typically the TiOC PV and 5-Series WizSense Plus IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras still record and recognise faces, but the full AcuPick search depth needs paired AcuPick IPCs.
What does ePoE on all 8 ports give me?
Extended PoE on every port — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Each port supports 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter, carpark or warehouse runs. A real advantage over the 4-Series, which doesn't have ePoE on any port.
Should I get the 5208 or the 16-channel 5216?
If you need more than 8 cameras now or expect to scale within the warranty period, choose the 5216-16P — it's the same hardware platform but doubles the PoE port count and AcuPick channels. If 8 channels covers your site and you'd rather save the budget for better cameras or longer storage, the 5208 (this model) is the sweet spot — same chassis, same AI features, same warranty.
Should I get the 5208 or the cheaper 4208-8P?
Same 8 channels, same alarm I/O and 2-HDD chassis — but the 5208 (this model) adds AcuPick, 32 MP support, 384 Mbps bandwidth, ePoE on all 8 ports, RS-485 serial, USB 3.0, video metadata search, N+M cluster failover and iSCSI. Choose the 5208 if AcuPick or 32 MP cameras are on the roadmap; choose the 4208 if you're certain you'll stay on 16 MP or lower and don't need ePoE.
Is the DHI-NVR5208-8P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR5208-8P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 22.06) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. Standard recording works with any ONVIF camera; AcuPick and the deeper AI search features require Dahua WizSense / AcuPick IPCs.
How much storage do I need for 8 cameras?
For 8 × 8 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~10-12 TB for 30 days of retention. A pair of 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) covers most use cases. If on-board capacity isn't enough, iSCSI lets you expand onto network-attached storage.

Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ — 8MP 4K TiOC PRO WizColor AcuPick Active Deterrence Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ is the PRO step-up of Dahua's 8MP TiOC line — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain as the standard 3849, but built around a 1/1.8" CMOS sensor and an extraordinary F1.0 aperture. Translation: the PRO gathers more than 2.5× as much light as the standard 3849 and resolves usable colour down to 0.0008 lux — a 3.75× improvement that produces clean, low-noise 4K colour footage on moonless suburban streets, in undercover carparks and across long dark driveways where the standard model would need to fall back to IR.
Combined with WizColor full-colour night vision, AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering, face detection (full image), and Dahua's latest AI Coding (≥25% additional compression efficiency), the PRO is the camera to specify for premium residential frontages, commercial perimeters and any site where image quality at night is the deciding factor. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ in Australia
The PRO is for installers and customers who refuse to compromise on night-time image quality. A larger 1/1.8" sensor, an F1.0 aperture and Dahua's newest WizColor illumination together deliver clean colour 4K at light levels where most cameras have long fallen back to grainy black-and-white. Combined with the full TiOC PRO active-deterrence chain, AcuPick AI and face-detection metadata, this is the camera Australian integrators reach for on premium homes, perimeters, commercial frontages and high-value loading docks.
1/1.8″ Sensor — A Genuine Image-Quality Upgrade
The PRO swaps the standard 3849's 1/2.7" sensor for a much larger 1/1.8" CMOS. Bigger pixels means more light per pixel, lower noise, higher dynamic range and noticeably better colour fidelity — especially in dawn, dusk and mixed-light conditions.
F1.0 Aperture — 2.5× More Light Than F1.6
Dahua's largest aperture in the WizSense 3-Series. F1.0 lets in more than 2.5× the light of the standard 3849's F1.6 lens — the single biggest factor in why this camera produces clean colour where others can't.
0.0008 Lux Colour · WizColor Full Colour
Minimum colour illumination drops to 0.0008 Lux (vs 0.003 Lux on the standard) — usable full-colour footage on a moonless suburban street with nothing but distant streetlight. WizColor warm-light LED can then take it the rest of the way.
TiOC PRO Active Deterrence — Strobe + Siren + Voice
Same proven TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle — no operator, no extra hardware required.
AcuPick + Face Detection (Full Image)
AcuPick attribute search runs with a 5-Series NVR, and the PRO additionally supports full-image face detection — generating per-event face metadata that makes incident review faster on every search.
AI Coding — 25%+ Less Storage for the Same 4K
Dahua's AI Coding analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest (people, vehicles) — delivering ≥25% additional compression efficiency over standard Smart H.265+. Longer retention on the same NVR drive.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua TiOC PRO Highlight — WizColor · AcuPick · SMD 4.0 (English)
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in microphones and an on-board speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 512 GB
On-camera MicroSD records days of 4K footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.
Lens Distortion Correction (LDC)
The PRO adds on-camera LDC — automatic correction of the slight barrel distortion natural to wide-angle 2.8 mm lenses. Straight walls stay straight on playback, especially important for evidential footage.
Cyber-Hardened by Design
Trusted boot, HTTPS, 802.1x, IP/MAC filtering, X.509 certificate import and syslog — the same enterprise hardening Dahua deploys on government and critical-infrastructure cameras.
Plug & Play + Third-Party VMS
Drops into any Dahua NVR via plug-and-play, and works over ONVIF Profile S/G/T with Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris and Synology Surveillance Station.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC PRO deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. With a PRO-spec 4K camera the AcuPick payoff is even bigger: search jumps that would take an hour on a 6MP fleet finish in seconds, and per-event face metadata lands directly in the NVR's smart-search index.

3849 PRO vs 3849 Standard — Is the PRO Worth the Upgrade?
Both cameras share the same chassis, the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The PRO's upgrades are concentrated in the parts that matter at night and at long range — the sensor, the lens, the AI engine and the image processing. If the camera's main job is to capture clean colour evidence in low light, or to feed AcuPick face-detection metadata into a 5-Series NVR, the PRO is the right call. If the site has plenty of ambient light or the budget is tight, the standard 3849 still does the job.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "PRO" mean on the 3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ?
PRO designates the higher-tier hardware variant in the 3849 line. Compared to the standard 3849, the PRO uses a larger 1/1.8" sensor, an F1.0 aperture (vs F1.6), 2 GB RAM (vs 512 MB), adds AI Coding, face detection and Lens Distortion Correction, and produces clean colour image at 0.0008 Lux (vs 0.003 Lux).
Is the PRO worth the extra cost over the standard 3849?
For sites where night-time image quality is critical — dark driveways, undercover carparks, commercial perimeters at the edge of street lighting — yes, the F1.0 aperture and 1/1.8" sensor make a visible difference. For well-lit sites, the standard 3849 delivers most of the same TiOC 3.0 capability at a lower price.
What is WizColor?
WizColor is Dahua's branding for full-colour night vision powered by a high-CRI warm-light LED combined with a large-aperture lens and high-sensitivity sensor. The 3849H-AS-PV-PRO is one of the WizSense 3-Series cameras that carries the WizColor designation.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC PRO deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS, face detection and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
Does the PRO have face recognition?
The PRO supports face detection (full image) — it detects and indexes faces as metadata for fast search and event tagging. It does not perform face recognition (matching against a watchlist) — that requires a dedicated face-recognition camera or a Dahua face-DB server.
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC PRO deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ is white; DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. The PRO also supports dual-power backup (PoE + 12 V DC) so the camera keeps running if one power source fails.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

NVR4108HS-8P vs NVR4208-8P — how it compares
Both 8-channel siblings share the same WizSense AI feature set, 8 PoE+ ports and 72 W PoE budget. The differences sit in storage, hardware alarm I/O, power supply and chassis size — choose the 4108HS for a compact desktop install, or the 4208 (this model) when you need redundant storage and wired alarm integration.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference vs the compact NVR4108HS-8P?
The 4108HS is a smaller, lighter chassis with 1 HDD bay, no physical alarm terminals, and an external 53 VDC power adaptor. The 4208-8P (this model) uses the same full-size chassis as the 16-channel 4216 — 2 HDD bays for double the storage, 4 alarm-in / 2 alarm-out terminals on the rear panel, and an internal 100-240 VAC PSU with a standard kettle cord. Same 8 channels, same WizSense AI, same 72 W PoE budget.
How many cameras can the built-in PoE actually power?
All 8 ports deliver PoE+ up to 25.5 W each, but the total budget across the recorder is 72 W. In practice that's enough for 8 standard bullets/turrets at 5-9 W each, or roughly 2-3 high-power PTZ/IR-heavy cameras at 25 W each plus a few standard cams. Plan for ~9 W average per channel.
Does this NVR support AcuPick?
No — AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's 5-Series WizSense Plus NVRs paired with TiOC PV cameras. This is a 4-Series NVR, so it supports Quick Pick instead (the original colour/clothing-based target search). If you specifically need AcuPick, ask CCTV Guru about a 5-Series NVR.
Will it work with my non-Dahua IP cameras?
Yes. The NVR4208-8P-AI/ANZ supports ONVIF Profile T/S/G (version 21.12) and has native integration for Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Axis, Pelco, Arecont and Canon. AI features run best with Dahua WizSense cameras, but standard recording works with any ONVIF-compliant camera.
What hard drives should I install?
Use surveillance-rated SATA HDDs up to 16 TB each — Western Digital Purple or Seagate SkyHawk. Two drives can be configured as one large pool or kept as separate disk groups for camera-segregated recording. For 8 cameras at 4 MP H.265+, a pair of 6-8 TB drives gives ~60-90 days of retention.
Is the DHI-NVR4208-8P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can I view it on my phone?
Yes — install the free DMSS app on iOS or Android, scan the QR code on the NVR's local menu, and you'll have live view, playback, push notifications and two-way audio without configuring port forwarding or a static IP.
What can I wire into the alarm terminals?
The 4 alarm inputs accept dry-contact NO/NC devices — PIR motion sensors, door reed switches, glass-break detectors, panic buttons or external trigger relays. The 2 alarm outputs are dry-contact relays that can drive sirens, strobe lights, electric gate triggers or a second relay stage. Linkable to record / snapshot / push-notification events in the NVR menu.

WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 32-Channel · 4-HDD · 1.5U
The Dahua DHI-NVR5432-AI/ANZ is a 32-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with AcuPick on all 32 channels, four SATA bays, dual Gigabit NICs, dual HDMI + dual VGA outputs, and a 1.5U rack chassis built for enterprise-scale installs. Record up to 32 MP per channel, scale storage to roughly 80 TB on-board (plus eSATA and iSCSI expansion), and split the live wall across up to 36 channels on the main monitor.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's a headend NVR with no built-in PoE — connect your cameras through an external PoE switch (or a dedicated PoE injector chain) and use the recorder for AI, storage and the control-room wall. Shipped with regional firmware, an internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney.

NVR5432 vs the family — where it sits
The 5432 is the enterprise headend in our Dahua range — twice the channel count of the 5216, twice the HDD bays, twice the network ports, and the only model with a 36-channel split and a 12 V alarm-output feed. The trade-off is the absence of built-in PoE: cameras must be powered through an external switch. Choose the 5216 instead if you want PoE built into the recorder; choose the 5432 (this model) when you're running more than 16 cameras through an existing managed network.

Frequently asked questions
Why doesn't the NVR5432 have built-in PoE?
The 5432 is a headend NVR designed for sites that already run a managed network. Cameras connect through an external PoE switch (Dahua's own PoE switches, or any IEEE 802.3af/at managed switch). This gives you VLAN segregation, redundant network paths and far better scaling than fixed 16-port PoE NVRs. If you'd prefer all-in-one with PoE built into the recorder, choose the 5216-16P-AI/ANZ instead.
How big a PoE switch do I need for 32 cameras?
Allow about 7-15 W per camera for most Dahua WizSense bullets/turrets, more for active-deterrence units and PTZs. A 24-port PoE+ switch with 370–500 W of budget will run 32 typical cameras comfortably; a 48-port managed PoE+ switch is more headroom and gives spare ports for VoIP, APs and APs. CCTV Guru can quote a complete switch + NVR bundle.
What is AcuPick and what do I need for it?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation attribute-and-image search — it extracts rich target attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction) at the camera AND the NVR, then lets you search across all 32 channels by reference image or combined attributes. You need Dahua's AcuPick-ready cameras (typically TiOC PV and 5-Series WizSense Plus IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras still record and recognise faces but the full AcuPick depth requires paired AcuPick IPCs.
What's the dual NIC for?
Two independent Gigabit RJ-45 ports — use them for VLAN segregation (camera VLAN on NIC1, management/uplink VLAN on NIC2), or bond them for active-passive failover (NIC2 takes over if NIC1's switch port dies), or load-balance for combined throughput. Configured from the local GUI or web interface.
How much storage do I need for 32 cameras?
For 32 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~25-35 TB for 30 days of retention. Four 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) covers most use cases with disk-group protection. If on-board capacity isn't enough, iSCSI lets you expand onto network-attached storage or eSATA onto external archive arrays.
Is the DHI-NVR5432-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 1.5U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). It can also sit on a desk or shelf if you've allocated cabinet space. At 4.74 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for around 7-8 kg fully loaded with four drives.
What's the 12 V alarm output for?
One of the 6 alarm outputs is a direct 12 V 1 A power feed — drive a siren, strobe light or electric strike directly without needing an external relay or power supply. The other 5 outputs are dry-contact relays you can wire to anything that takes a NO/NC trigger.

The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3866TP-ZAS-AUS is an 8MP IR vari-focal bullet in Dahua's WizSense 3 Series — a long-range surveillance camera built around a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor, a 2.7–13.5 mm motorised vari-focal lens, four IR LEDs delivering 60 m of night vision, and on-camera SMD 4.0 AI to filter false alarms. This is a focused IR surveillance camera — there are no strobe lights, no siren, no warm-light LED and no active deterrence chain. It's purpose-built for sites that need silent, long-range 4K monitoring rather than visible deterrence.
Powered by Dahua's WizSense AI, the camera supports perimeter protection (tripwire + intrusion with human/vehicle classification), AI SSA scene adaptation, EIS image stabilisation, 120 dB true WDR and AI Coding for reduced bandwidth and storage. Paired with a Dahua AI NVR, Quick Pick surfaces human and vehicle targets straight from SMD events for faster review. The compact metal bullet body is IP67 sealed, with IK10 vandal resistance available as an optional configuration. White only. Australian stock, 3-year Australian warranty.

Why Choose the 8MP IR Motorised Bullet
Not every site wants — or is allowed to have — a camera that flashes red and blue strobes and sounds a siren at every fox or possum. For Australian schools, aged-care facilities, healthcare campuses, residential frontages near neighbours, retail interiors and corporate sites, the right camera is one that watches quietly at 4K, illuminates the scene with invisible IR out to 60 m, and lets the rest of the security stack (NVR alerts, monitored response, mobile push) decide what happens next. The 3866TP-ZAS-AUS is built for exactly that role.
4K Surveillance Without Light Pollution
Invisible IR illumination from four LEDs reaches out to 60 m. No flashing strobes, no warm-light spill into neighbouring properties, no audible alarms — eyes on the scene without announcing it.
60 m IR Range
Four IR LEDs combined with the 5× zoom lens deliver clear night-time monitoring deep into large yards, long driveways and commercial perimeters where shorter-range cameras simply run out of light.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Vari-Focal
Five-times optical zoom with remote focus and zoom control via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Set the field of view once at install, then re-tune from your phone whenever the scene changes — no ladder, no re-aiming.
SMD 4.0 — Near-Zero False Alarms
Dahua's Smart Motion Detection 4.0 runs on-camera, classifying humans and vehicles while filtering out animals, foliage and weather. Sleep through the night, not through the alarm.
120 dB WDR + AI SSA
120 dB true WDR balances harsh contrast (sunset doorways, undercover carparks, mixed lighting). AI Scene Self-Adaptation tunes exposure for rain, fog, backlight, low light and flicker automatically.
IP67 Metal Body + IK10 Option
Fully sealed against dust and water in a compact all-metal bullet chassis. IK10 vandal-resistance is available as an optional configuration — engineered for carparks, loading docks, school perimeters and high-traffic environments.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Remote Zoom & Auto-Focus
Adjust the 2.7–13.5 mm zoom from the DMSS app or a Dahua NVR. The motor handles focus automatically as the lens zooms — no manual focus turret to fiddle with at the camera.
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it. No false alarms from leaves blowing in the wind.
EIS Image Stabilisation
Electronic Image Stabilisation corrects subtle vibration on long-zoom shots from a pole, gable or fence — keeping the image steady at 13.5 mm telephoto where small movements are most visible.
AI Coding — Lower Bandwidth & Storage
Dahua's AI Coding (AI H.265 / H.264) analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest, reducing storage and transmission cost over standard Smart H.265+.
External Audio & Alarm I/O
The ZAS variant supports 1 audio in / 1 audio out (RCA) plus 1 alarm in / 1 alarm out — connect an external speaker, PIR or door contact to extend the camera's capability. Built-in microphone included on-camera.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 256 GB
On-camera MicroSD records 4K footage independently of the NVR — a redundancy layer if the network drops or the recorder is offline.
Pair with a Dahua WizSense AI NVR
The 3866TP-ZAS-AUS is a WizSense 3 Series camera. SMD 4.0, IVS rules and human/vehicle classification all run on-camera and work with any Dahua AI NVR — including the value 4-Series WizSense NVRs. With a compatible AI NVR you also unlock Quick Pick — fast human/vehicle target extraction from SMD events. (Note: this camera does not support AcuPick attribute search; if that workflow matters to your site, look at the TiOC AcuPick line instead.)

3866TP-ZAS-AUS vs 3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 — Silent or Active Deterrence?
Both cameras are 4K motorised vari-focal bullets sharing the same WizSense AI engine, SMD 4.0, IVS perimeter protection and IP67 rating. The deciding question is the deterrence chain: do you want the camera to actively scare off intruders, or quietly record them? The 3866TP-ZAS-AUS is the silent surveillance camera — longer 60 m IR reach, no strobe, no siren, no warm light. The 3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the active deterrence camera — adds red/blue strobe, siren, voice broadcast, warm-light LED, on-board speaker, dual MIC and AcuPick AI compatibility, at the cost of slightly shorter 50 m IR.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this camera have active deterrence (strobe / siren)?
No. The 3866TP-ZAS-AUS is a silent 4K IR surveillance camera — it does not include red/blue strobe lights, built-in siren or voice broadcast, and it does not include a warm-light LED. If you need active deterrence, look at the Dahua TiOC line-up (HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the closest equivalent in the same form factor).
Does it support AcuPick AI search?
No. AcuPick is reserved for Dahua's TiOC AcuPick line-up. This camera is part of the WizSense 3 Series and supports SMD 4.0 human/vehicle classification, IVS tripwire/intrusion, and Quick Pick (with an AI NVR) — all of which work on-camera or with any Dahua AI NVR.
What is Quick Pick and how is it different from AcuPick?
Quick Pick lets you pull human and vehicle targets straight from SMD events when the camera is paired with an AI NVR. AcuPick goes further — it indexes attribute metadata (clothing colour, vehicle type) so you can search live and recorded video by attribute. Quick Pick is "show me the people from this clip"; AcuPick is "show me everyone wearing red across the entire week".
Can the camera pan and tilt remotely?
No. The 3866TP-ZAS is a motorised vari-focal bullet, not a PTZ. The lens supports remote zoom and auto-focus, but the camera body itself does not pan or tilt remotely — the housing is aimed manually at install time. For full remote pan/tilt/zoom, look at a Dahua PTZ.
How much does the 5× motorised zoom cover at full telephoto?
At 13.5 mm telephoto, the camera will detect motion at 289.7 m, recognise a person at 57.9 m, and identify a face at 29.0 m. At the 2.7 mm wide end, it covers a 109° horizontal field of view — a full driveway or carpark from a single mounting point.
What does the camera see at night?
Four IR LEDs deliver 60 m of infrared illumination, producing clear monochrome 4K footage in complete darkness. In low-light colour conditions (e.g. ambient streetlight) the 1/2.8" sensor produces usable colour image at 0.007 lux before the IR cuts in.
Does it have a built-in microphone?
Yes — the camera has a built-in microphone for capturing scene audio. The ZAS variant also adds external audio in / out (RCA) for connecting an external mic or speaker, plus alarm in / out for PIRs or door contacts.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 256 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −30 °C to +60 °C — covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. IK10 vandal resistance is available as an optional configuration. The all-metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Yes — recording, streaming, motion and the WizSense AI metadata work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). For the smartest integration (Quick Pick, push notifications, remote zoom from the app), pair it with a Dahua AI NVR.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 — 6MP TiOC 3.0 AcuPick Active Deterrence Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the S2 revision of Dahua's flagship 6MP TiOC turret — the camera Australian installers reach for when a customer wants AI detection, visible strobe deterrence, audible siren warnings and full-colour night evidence in a single unit. Built around a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor, a 2.8 mm wide-angle lens delivering a 97° horizontal field of view, and Dahua's WizSense AI engine, it captures sharp 3200 × 1800 detail by day and full-colour evidence by night while drawing under 9 W on standard PoE.
As part of the Dahua WizSense Series with the new TiOC 3.0 firmware, the S2 adds on-camera AcuPick indexing, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering and customisable voice broadcast on top of the proven red/blue strobe + siren chain. The vandal-resistant metal housing, IP67 seal and −40 °C to +60 °C operating range make it a confident choice for driveways, perimeters, retail frontages and tradie yards across every Australian climate. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK).

Why Choose the Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 in Australia
Australian installers specify the 3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 because it solves three problems at once: it deters intrusion before it happens, captures evidence-grade colour at the moment of the event, and makes after-the-fact target search trivial with AcuPick. Whether it's a Western Sydney driveway, a Brisbane shopfront, a Perth tradie yard or a Tasmanian holiday home, this 6MP turret performs — and keeps performing.
TiOC 3.0 — Three-in-One Active Deterrence
Red & blue strobe + on-board siren + custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment AI confirms a human or vehicle — a complete deterrence chain in one camera, no extra hardware, no operator required.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute — clothing colour, vehicle type, direction — so you find any face or plate across a week of footage in seconds, not hours.
Smart Dual-Light Night Vision
Invisible IR by default (30 m), auto-switching to a 30 m warm-light LED when a person or vehicle is detected — capturing clothing colour, hair colour and vehicle paint in full colour, exactly when it matters.
SMD 4.0 — Near-Zero False Alarms
Dahua's newest Smart Motion Detection runs on-camera, classifying humans and vehicles while ignoring spiders, possums, gum trees, headlights and washing on the line. Sleep through the night, not through the alarm.
120 dB True WDR
Real 120 dB wide dynamic range balances the harshest Australian conditions — west-facing front doors at sunset, head-on headlights at night, mixed indoor/outdoor lighting at retail entrances.
Built Tough for Australia
IP67 ingress protection, metal housing, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance and a −40 °C to +60 °C operating range mean it shrugs off coastal salt, outback heat, Tasmanian frost and unstable rural mains.

Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. Without it, the camera will still capture the AI metadata, but the playback-side intelligence won't be available. For any new installation we strongly recommend pairing the 3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 with one of the recorders below.

TiOC 3.0 — What's New vs TiOC 2.0
The S2 revision is not a cosmetic refresh — it's a full TiOC 3.0 upgrade. Five concrete improvements over the original DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ:
AcuPick on-camera — full attribute-based human and vehicle search with a 5-Series AcuPick NVR (not available on TiOC 2.0)
SMD 4.0 — longer detection distance, fewer false alarms, better small-target accuracy than SMD 3.0
MicroSD up to 512 GB — doubled from the 256 GB ceiling of the previous revision
Refined warm-light LED tuning — softer colour temperature, less light pollution for residential neighbours
Updated cybersecurity baseline — TLS 1.2+, refreshed firmware-signing and trusted-execution checks
If you're specifying a new system today, choose the S2. If you're adding to an existing TiOC 2.0 fleet, the S2 still pairs cleanly — the deterrence behaviour is consistent across versions.

3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 vs 3667EM-S-IL-ANZ — Which Dahua 6MP Should You Choose?
The DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 (TiOC 3.0) and DH-IPC-HDW3667EM-S-IL-ANZ (Smart Dual-Light AcuPick) share the same chassis, the same AcuPick AI stack and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The deciding question is simple: do you want the camera to actively warn intruders, or quietly record them? If you need red/blue strobe, siren, voice broadcast and two-way talk-down, choose the 3649 TiOC. If you only need silent full-colour night-vision surveillance with AcuPick search, the 3667 is the cheaper pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does TiOC mean and how is TiOC 3.0 different from TiOC 2.0?
TiOC = Three-in-One Camera: AI detection + visual deterrence (red/blue strobe) + audible deterrence (siren and voice) in a single unit. TiOC 3.0 upgrades the original formula with on-camera AcuPick indexing, SMD 4.0, refined warm-light tuning and 512 GB MicroSD support.
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. SMD 4.0, IVS, two-way audio and the full TiOC deterrence chain work on every Dahua AI NVR — and via ONVIF on most third-party recorders. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Can I speak through the camera?
Yes. Dual built-in microphones and a 1-channel speaker enable real-time two-way audio through the DMSS app or a compatible Dahua NVR — ideal for warning intruders, instructing couriers or speaking to family at the door.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 32-Channel · 16-PoE · 4-HDD
The Dahua DHI-NVR5432-16P-AI/ANZ is a 32-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with 16 built-in PoE+ ports (ports 1–8 ePoE-capable up to 800 m), four SATA bays, dual Gigabit NICs, dual HDMI + dual VGA outputs, and a 1.5U rack chassis built for enterprise installs. AcuPick runs across all 32 channels, recording up to 32 MP per camera, scaling storage to 80 TB on-board (plus eSATA and iSCSI expansion), and driving a control-room wall up to 36 channels on the main monitor.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's the all-in-one option in our 5-Series 32-channel range — sixteen cameras plug straight into the back of the recorder, the remaining sixteen come in via an external PoE switch on the network. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney.
16 PoE+ ports — 8 with ePoE up to 800 m
PoE Ports
16 × 10/100 · IEEE 802.3af/at · 1–8 ePoE
PoE Budget
150 W total · up to 25.5 W per port
16 cameras plug straight in
Each Cat6 run carries power and video back to the NVR — no power adaptors at every camera, no PoE switch in the rack for the first 16 channels. Sixteen more cameras come in via your existing network for the full 32-channel licence.
ePoE on ports 1–8 (up to 800 m)
Extended PoE on the first 8 ports — 100 Mbps up to 300 m, or 10 Mbps up to 800 m on Cat6. Eliminates intermediate switches and fibre runs on long perimeter, carpark or warehouse runs.
Powers PoE+ cameras
25.5 W per port (PoE+ / 802.3at) handles IR-heavy bullets, mini PTZs, multi-sensor cameras and active-deterrence units. 150 W total — plan for ~9 W average per camera across all 16 ports.
Scales beyond 16 via network
The licence supports up to 32 IP cameras — sixteen on the built-in PoE, sixteen via an external PoE switch or network. Mix Dahua WizSense IPCs and any ONVIF camera you already own.

Frequently asked questions
How does this differ from the no-PoE NVR5432-AI/ANZ?
The 5432-16P (this model) has 16 built-in PoE+ ports — your first 16 cameras plug straight into the back of the recorder, no PoE switch required. The plain 5432-AI/ANZ has no built-in PoE and is for sites that already run a managed PoE switch. Same chassis, same AI, same 4 HDD bays — just the PoE difference.
What does ePoE on ports 1–8 give me?
Extended PoE — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Ports 1–8 support 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter or carpark runs. Ports 9–16 run standard PoE+ at up to 100 m.
How do I connect cameras 17–32?
Via your existing managed switch or VLAN. The licence supports up to 32 IP cameras on the NVR; you decide which 16 plug into the built-in PoE and which come in over the network. The Gigabit uplink and second NIC give you plenty of headroom to bring in another 16 channels of camera traffic.
What is AcuPick and what do I need for it?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation attribute-and-image search — it extracts rich target attributes at the camera AND the NVR, then lets you search across all 32 channels by reference image or combined attributes. You need Dahua's AcuPick-ready cameras (typically TiOC PV and 5-Series WizSense Plus IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras still record and recognise faces but the full AcuPick depth requires paired AcuPick IPCs.
How much storage do I need for 32 cameras?
For 32 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~25–35 TB for 30 days of retention. Four 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) covers most use cases with disk-group protection. If on-board capacity isn't enough, iSCSI lets you expand onto network-attached storage or eSATA onto external archive arrays.
Is the DHI-NVR5432-16P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 1.5U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). It can also sit on a desk or shelf if you've allocated cabinet space. Plan for about 7–8 kg fully loaded with four drives.
What's the 12 V alarm output for?
One of the 6 alarm outputs is a direct 12 V 1 A power feed — drive a siren, strobe light or electric strike directly without needing an external relay or power supply. The other 5 outputs are dry-contact relays you can wire to anything that takes a NO/NC trigger.

Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 — 8MP 4K TiOC 3.0 Motorised Vari-Focal AcuPick Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the motorised vari-focal sibling of Dahua's 8MP TiOC 3.0 line — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain, same AcuPick AI and same Smart Dual-Light system as the fixed-lens 3849, but with a remotely-adjustable 2.7–13.5 mm zoom lens and substantially longer reach. At wide-angle it covers a full driveway with a 100°+ field of view; at telephoto it can identify a face at 25.7 m and detect motion out to 257 m — turning a single camera into both a perimeter wide-shot and a high-zoom evidence camera.
Combined with extended 50 m IR + 40 m warm-light illumination (versus 30 m on the fixed-lens 3849), AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering, two-way audio and full TiOC 3.0 active deterrence, this is the camera Australian installers reach for when they need both wide coverage and long-range identification from one mounting point. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Motorised Vari-Focal 3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2
The vari-focal upgrade matters when one camera needs to do two jobs — cover a wide approach and pull tight on a number plate or face at the end of the driveway. Where the fixed-lens 3849 commits to a single 2.8 mm field of view forever, the ZAS lets you dial the zoom remotely after install, after a fence is built, after vegetation grows in, or after you change your mind. It's the camera Australian installers reach for on long rural driveways, carparks, loading docks, school perimeters and anywhere field-of-view requirements change over time.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Vari-Focal
Five times optical zoom with remote focus and zoom control via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Set the field of view once at install, then re-tune from your phone whenever the scene changes — no ladder, no scaffolding, no re-aiming.
Massive DORI Reach at Tele
At maximum zoom the 3849 ZAS will detect motion at 257 m, recognise a person at 51.5 m, and identify a face at 25.7 m — three times the identification range of the fixed-lens 3849. One camera can secure a footy-field-sized property.
50 m IR + 40 m Warm Light
Extended Smart Dual-Light reach matches the longer optical range — IR illumination out to 50 m, warm-light LED to 40 m. Enough to fully illuminate a long driveway or a typical carpark in pitch darkness.
TiOC 3.0 — Three-in-One Active Deterrence
Same active deterrence chain as the fixed-lens 3849: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle. No operator, no extra hardware.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute. Combined with the 4K resolution and 5× optical zoom, target search is faster and sharper than on any fixed-lens 8MP camera.
Built Tough for Australia
IP67 ingress protection, metal housing, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance and a −40 °C to +60 °C operating range mean it shrugs off coastal salt, outback heat, Tasmanian frost and unstable rural mains.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua TiOC 3 & PRO Webinar 2024 — Official English Walkthrough
Remote Zoom & Auto-Focus
Adjust the 2.7–13.5 mm zoom from the DMSS app or a Dahua NVR. The motor handles focus automatically as the lens zooms — no manual focus turret to fiddle with at the camera.
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in MICs and an on-board speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 512 GB
On-camera MicroSD records days of 4K footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.
One-Press Arming / Disarming
A single tap in the DMSS app arms or disarms the full TiOC chain. Disarm for parties and deliveries; rearm with one button for overnight and holidays.
Plug & Play + Third-Party VMS
Drops into any Dahua NVR via plug-and-play, and works over ONVIF Profile S/G/T with Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris and Synology Surveillance Station.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. With a long-zoom 4K camera the AcuPick payoff is even bigger: search jumps that would take an hour on a 6MP fleet finish in seconds, and the long-tele footage carries enough pixel density for clean facial-attribute search at distance.

3849H-ZAS (Motorised) vs 3849H-AS (Fixed) — Which 8MP TiOC Should You Choose?
Both cameras share the same chassis, the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The deciding question is the lens: do you need a single fixed field of view, or the flexibility to zoom in remotely? If the site has long sightlines, changing conditions, or you want one camera to cover both wide approach and high-zoom evidence, choose the ZAS. If you only need a fixed 106° wide view and the budget is tight, the fixed-lens 3849 is the cheaper pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the "Z" in 3849H-ZAS mean?
"Z" stands for motorised zoom — this is the motorised vari-focal lens version of the 8MP TiOC 3.0 line. The fixed-lens equivalent is the 3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2. Both share the same chassis, AcuPick AI, TiOC 3.0 deterrence and Smart Dual-Light; the ZAS adds a 2.7–13.5 mm zoom lens with auto-focus you can drive remotely.
Is the motorised vari-focal version worth the extra cost?
If the site has long sightlines (driveways, perimeters, carparks) or if field-of-view requirements are likely to change (new fences, vegetation, signage), yes — the ability to remotely re-zoom from the app saves a service call every time. For a fixed shop entrance or a narrow doorway, the fixed-lens 3849 is the cheaper choice.
Can the camera pan and tilt remotely too, or just zoom?
The 3849H-ZAS is a motorised vari-focal turret, not a PTZ. The lens supports remote zoom and auto-focus, but the camera body itself does not pan or tilt remotely — the housing is aimed manually at install time. For a fully remote pan/tilt/zoom camera, look at a Dahua PTZ.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
How much PoE budget does this camera need?
The ZAS draws a maximum of 12.1 W on PoE when the motor, strobe, siren and warm light are simultaneously active — well within the 802.3af PoE budget of 15.4 W. Most installs sit at 5–6 W in normal operation. Make sure your PoE switch budgets for the peak, especially on multi-camera switches.
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

The dome form factor wall-flushes neatly into ceilings, soffits and undercover walkways, and the housing is rated IK10 vandal-resistant as standard — built to take a hammer strike without breaking the lens cover.
This is a focused IR surveillance camera. There are no strobe lights, no siren, no warm-light LED and no active deterrence chain. It's purpose-built for sites that need silent, vandal-tolerant 4K monitoring in a discreet dome — schools, healthcare, aged-care, carparks, loading docks, retail interiors and corridors. Powered by Dahua's WizSense AI with SMD 4.0 human/vehicle classification, IVS perimeter protection, AI Coding, EIS image stabilisation, and 120 dB true WDR. Australian stock, 3-year Australian warranty.

Why Choose the 8MP Vandal Dome
The vandal-dome form factor solves a specific Australian install problem: how to put a 4K motorised camera in a public space — a school corridor, a hospital ward, an undercover carpark, a retail back-of-house — without it being torn off the ceiling or smashed at first opportunity. The IK10-rated housing takes a hammer strike without breaking. The compact dome shape sits flush against the ceiling or soffit. And because there's no strobe, no siren and no warm-light LED, the camera watches quietly without alerting anyone to its presence.
IK10 Vandal Resistance — Built In
The dome housing is rated IK10: it withstands more than 5 strikes from a 5 kg hammer falling 40 cm (20 J impact energy). The lens cover stays intact and the camera keeps recording — critical for public spaces, schools and corridors where bullets and turrets get torn down.
Compact Discreet Dome Form Factor
At just 94 mm tall × Φ 122 mm and 713 g, the dome sits flush against ceilings, soffits and undercover surfaces. Less visible than a bullet, harder to grab, and aesthetically suited to architectural interiors.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Vari-Focal
Five-times optical zoom with remote focus and zoom via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Set the field of view once at install, then re-tune from your phone whenever the scene changes — no ladder, no re-aiming.
WizSense AI — SMD 4.0 + IVS
On-camera Smart Motion Detection 4.0 classifies humans and vehicles while filtering out animals, foliage and weather. IVS tripwire and intrusion detection trigger smart alerts — no nuisance alarms.
4K Detail With 109° Wide-Angle Coverage
At the 2.7 mm wide end, the dome covers a 109° horizontal field of view at full 4K — a whole carpark, corridor or open-plan space from a single mounting point. At telephoto, the same camera identifies a face at 29 m.
120 dB WDR + AI SSA
120 dB true WDR balances harsh contrast — undercover carparks at noon, glass-walled receptions at sunset, mixed indoor/outdoor lighting. AI Scene Self-Adaptation tunes exposure for rain, fog, backlight, low light and flicker automatically.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Remote Zoom & Auto-Focus
Adjust the 2.7–13.5 mm zoom from the DMSS app or a Dahua NVR. The motor handles focus automatically as the lens zooms — no manual focus turret to fiddle with at the camera.
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across a corridor or a no-go zone around a service door — get a notification only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it. No false alarms from cleaners or moving shadows.
EIS Image Stabilisation
Electronic Image Stabilisation corrects subtle vibration on long-zoom shots from a ceiling, gantry or pole-mounted dome — keeping the image steady at 13.5 mm telephoto.
AI Coding — Lower Bandwidth & Storage
Dahua's AI Coding (AI H.265 / AI H.264) analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest, reducing storage and transmission cost over standard Smart H.265+.
External Audio & Alarm I/O
The ZAS variant supports 1 audio in / 1 audio out (RCA) plus 1 alarm in / 1 alarm out — connect an external speaker, PIR or door contact. Built-in microphone included on-camera.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 256 GB
On-camera MicroSD records 4K footage independently of the NVR — a redundancy layer if the network drops or the recorder is offline.
Pair with a Dahua WizSense AI NVR
The 3866RP-ZAS-AUS is a WizSense 3 Series camera. SMD 4.0, IVS rules and human/vehicle classification all run on-camera and work with any Dahua AI NVR — including the value 4-Series WizSense NVRs. With a compatible AI NVR you also unlock Quick Pick — fast human/vehicle target extraction from SMD events. (Note: this camera does not support AcuPick attribute search; if that workflow matters to your site, look at the Smart Dual Light + AcuPick HDBW3867 or HFW3867T line instead.)

Frequently Asked Questions
What does IK10 vandal resistance mean in practice?
IK10 is the highest IK rating in the IEC 62262 impact-resistance standard. The dome housing can withstand more than 5 strikes from a 5 kg hammer falling 40 cm — 20 J of impact energy — without cracking or losing function. Translation: a teenager swinging a brick won't take the camera offline.
Does this camera have active deterrence (strobe / siren)?
No. The HDBW3866RP-ZAS-AUS is a silent 4K IR surveillance camera — no red/blue strobe, no built-in siren, no voice broadcast, no warm-light LED. If you need active deterrence, look at the Dahua TiOC line (HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 turret is the closest in form factor).
Does it support AcuPick AI search?
No. AcuPick is reserved for the Smart Dual Light AcuPick line-up (e.g. HFW3867T-ZAS-IL-ANZ bullet). This dome supports SMD 4.0 human/vehicle classification, IVS tripwire/intrusion, and Quick Pick (with an AI NVR) — sufficient for most surveillance workflows without the AcuPick attribute search overhead.
Why pick the dome over the bullet form factor?
Two reasons. First, vandal resistance — the IK10 dome housing is built to take physical abuse, where a bullet can be grabbed and ripped off. Second, discreet flush mounting — the compact 94 mm dome sits neatly into a ceiling, soffit or undercover surface, while a 244 mm bullet sticks out visibly. Trade-off: shorter 40 m IR range vs the bullet's 60 m, and no integrated sun shield.
Can the camera pan and tilt remotely?
No. The HDBW3866RP-ZAS is a motorised vari-focal vandal dome, not a PTZ. The lens supports remote zoom and auto-focus, but the camera's three-axis gimbal is for manual aim at install time only (Pan 0–355°, Tilt 0–80°, Rotation 0–355°). For a fully remote PTZ, look at a Dahua PTZ dome.
How does the 5× motorised zoom work?
At wide-angle (2.7 mm) the camera covers a 109° horizontal field of view — enough for a full corridor or open-plan space from a single mounting point. At telephoto (13.5 mm) you can pull tight on a specific zone — an entry door, a service counter, a checkout aisle. Remote zoom from the DMSS app means you can re-tune the field of view as the site changes.
Does it have a built-in microphone?
Yes — the camera has a built-in microphone for capturing scene audio. The ZAS variant also adds external audio in / out (RCA) for connecting an external mic or speaker, plus alarm in / out for PIRs or door contacts.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 256 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67, IK10 vandal-resistant and −30 °C to +60 °C. The all-metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance handle coastal salt, undercover carpark grime and unstable rural mains. Note: for the widest operating temperature range (−40 °C to +60 °C), the HFW3866TP-ZAS-AUS bullet has a wider rated spec.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Yes — recording, streaming, motion and the WizSense AI metadata work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). For the smartest integration (Quick Pick, push notifications, remote zoom from the app), pair it with a Dahua AI NVR.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 — 8MP 4K TiOC 3.0 AcuPick Active Deterrence Bullet
The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the 4K bullet form-factor sibling of Dahua's 8MP TiOC 3.0 turret — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain, same AcuPick AI and same Smart Dual-Light system, but in a long, sun-shielded weatherproof body purpose-built for pole, eaves and gable mounting. The integrated sun visor cuts glare and rain ingress on the lens, the longer chassis dissipates heat better under direct Australian sun, and the visible-from-distance bullet silhouette is itself a deterrent before the strobe and siren even fire.
Built around a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor with a remarkable F1.0 aperture, AI Coding (≥25% extra compression efficiency), and a 106° wide-angle 2.8 mm lens, the bullet delivers true 4K (3840 × 2160) detail with DORI Identify at 9.1 m and Detect to 91 m. Combined with AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0, 120 dB WDR, two-way audio and full TiOC 3.0 active deterrence, this is the camera Australian installers reach for on rural driveways, commercial yards, retail back lanes and any site where a bullet's reach, sun-shield protection and visible deterrence matter — at 4K resolution. Available in White (DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the 8MP Bullet 3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2
Bullet and turret models can share the same internals — but the form factor changes the install. The bullet's integrated sun shield, longer chassis and more conspicuous silhouette make it the right call for Australian outdoor work: better glare and rain protection at the lens, better heat dissipation under direct sun, and a visible deterrence presence even before the strobe and siren fire. Step up from the 6MP bullet for 33% more pixels, a wider 106° field of view, and a longer Identify-distance DORI range — useful when one camera needs to cover a wide approach and resolve a number plate or face at 9 m.
True 4K Detail Across 106° of Coverage
Eight megapixels (3840 × 2160) across a 2.8 mm wide-angle lens means you cover the whole driveway in one bullet and still digitally zoom into a number plate or face afterward without pixelation.
Integrated Sun Shield & Bullet Body
The sun visor cuts harsh Australian glare from the lens, reduces ghosting on backlit scenes, and keeps rain off the front element — critical for the unsheltered fascia and pole mounts where bullets typically end up.
F1.0 Large Aperture
The bullet ships with an F1.0 aperture (2.5× the light gathering of F1.6) — wider than the standard 8MP turret. Cleaner colour image in low light, less reliance on warm-light LED to lift exposure.

Same proven TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain as the turret: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute. With 4K resolution, AcuPick target search is sharper and more reliable than on any 6MP camera.
Built Tough for Australia
IP67 ingress protection, metal + reinforced-plastic chassis, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance and a −40 °C to +60 °C operating range mean it shrugs off coastal salt, outback heat, Tasmanian frost and unstable rural mains.

3849T1-AS (Fixed) vs 3849T1-ZAS (Motorised) — Which 8MP Bullet Should You Choose?
Both cameras are 4K TiOC 3.0 bullets sharing the same chassis, the same active deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light technology. The deciding question is the lens: do you need a single fixed wide field of view, or the flexibility to zoom in remotely? If you only need a fixed 106° wide view and the budget is tighter, the fixed-lens 3849T1-AS is the right pick. If the site has long sightlines, changing conditions, or you want one camera to cover both wide approach and long-range identification, choose the motorised 3849T1-ZAS instead.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the bullet 3849T1 and the turret 3849H?
Both run the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI, the same 4K image quality and the same 30 m Smart Dual-Light. The difference is form factor: the bullet has an integrated sun shield, a longer chassis and a more visible silhouette — better for poles, gables and exposed eaves. The bullet also includes AI Coding (≥25% extra compression) and a wider F1.0 aperture at the same price tier.
Is the 8MP bullet worth stepping up from the 6MP bullet?
If you need to cover wide property frontages, long driveways, multi-bay carparks, or signage you need to read at distance, yes — 33% more pixels plus a wider 106° FOV (vs 97° on 6MP) and longer Identify range (9.1 m vs 6.6 m) makes a real difference at the playback stage. For a single doorway or narrow passage, the 6MP bullet is the better-value option.
Is the bullet better than the turret for outdoor use?
In direct sun and rain, yes — the integrated sun shield keeps glare and water off the front element. In sheltered or undercover installs (eaves, soffits, indoor), the turret is more compact and discreet. Bullets are also typically the easier mount for pole-and-fence installations.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves, charcoal fascia and modern industrial aesthetics; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Can I speak through the camera?
Yes. Dual built-in microphones and a 1-channel speaker enable real-time two-way audio through the DMSS app or a compatible Dahua NVR — ideal for warning intruders, instructing couriers or speaking to family at the door.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal + reinforced-plastic housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

Dahua TiOC PRO · WizColor · AcuPick · 1/1.8″ Sensor
Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ — 6MP TiOC PRO WizColor AcuPick Active Deterrence Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ is the PRO step-up of Dahua's 6MP TiOC line — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain as the standard 3649, but built around a much larger 1/1.8" CMOS sensor and an extraordinary F1.0 aperture. Translation: the PRO gathers more than 2.5× as much light as the standard 3649 and resolves usable colour down to 0.0005 lux — a 6× improvement that produces clean, low-noise colour footage on moonless suburban streets, in undercover carparks and across long dark driveways where the standard model would need to fall back to IR.
Combined with WizColor full-colour night vision, AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering, and Dahua's latest AI Coding (≥25% additional compression efficiency), the PRO is the camera to specify for premium residential frontages, commercial perimeters and any site where image quality at night is the deciding factor — without paying the 4K-storage premium of the 8MP PRO. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ in Australia
The PRO is for installers and customers who refuse to compromise on night-time image quality but don't need the 4K resolution of the 8MP PRO. A larger 1/1.8" sensor, an F1.0 aperture and Dahua's newest WizColor illumination together deliver clean colour at light levels where most cameras have long fallen back to grainy black-and-white. Combined with the full TiOC PRO active-deterrence chain and AcuPick AI, this is the camera Australian integrators reach for on premium homes, perimeters, commercial frontages and high-value loading docks — at a more accessible price point than the 8MP PRO sibling.
1/1.8″ Sensor — A Genuine Image-Quality Upgrade
The PRO swaps the standard 3649's 1/2.7" sensor for a much larger 1/1.8" CMOS. Bigger pixels mean more light per pixel, lower noise, higher dynamic range and noticeably better colour fidelity — especially in dawn, dusk and mixed-light conditions.
F1.0 Aperture — 2.5× More Light Than F1.6
Dahua's largest aperture in the WizSense 3-Series. F1.0 lets in more than 2.5× the light of the standard 3649's F1.6 lens — the single biggest factor in why this camera produces clean colour where others can't.
0.0005 Lux Colour · WizColor Full Colour
Minimum colour illumination drops to 0.0005 Lux (vs 0.003 Lux on the standard 3649) — a 6× improvement that produces usable full-colour footage on a moonless suburban street with nothing but distant streetlight. Even better low-light than the 8MP PRO thanks to larger per-pixel area.
TiOC PRO Active Deterrence — Strobe + Siren + Voice
Same proven TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle — no operator, no extra hardware required.
AcuPick AI Target Search
AcuPick attribute search runs with a 5-Series NVR — clothing colour, vehicle type, direction — locate any face or plate across a week of footage in seconds rather than hours.
AI Coding — 25%+ Less Storage
Dahua's AI Coding analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest (people, vehicles) — delivering ≥25% additional compression efficiency over standard Smart H.265+. Longer retention on the same NVR drive.

3649 PRO vs 3649 Standard — Is the PRO Worth the Upgrade?
Both cameras share the same chassis, the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The PRO's upgrades are concentrated in the parts that matter at night and at long range — the sensor, the lens, the AI engine and the image processing. If the camera's main job is to capture clean colour evidence in low light, the PRO is the right call. If the site has plenty of ambient light or the budget is tight, the standard 3649 still does the job.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "PRO" mean on the 3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ?
PRO designates the higher-tier hardware variant in the 3649 line. Compared to the standard 3649, the PRO uses a larger 1/1.8" sensor, an F1.0 aperture (vs F1.6), 2 GB RAM (vs 512 MB), adds AI Coding and Lens Distortion Correction, and produces clean colour image at 0.0005 Lux (vs 0.003 Lux — a 6× improvement).
Is the PRO worth the extra cost over the standard 3649?
For sites where night-time image quality is critical — dark driveways, undercover carparks, commercial perimeters at the edge of street lighting — yes, the F1.0 aperture and 1/1.8" sensor make a visible difference. For well-lit sites, the standard 3649 delivers most of the same TiOC 3.0 capability at a lower price.
Why pick the 6MP PRO over the 8MP PRO?
Two reasons. First, better low-light — 0.0005 Lux on the 6MP PRO vs 0.0008 Lux on the 8MP PRO, because larger pixels gather more light. Second, cheaper storage — 6MP files are about 30% smaller than 4K files, so the same NVR drive holds 30% more days of footage. If you don't need 4K-level zoom-in capability, the 6MP PRO often makes more sense.
What is WizColor?
WizColor is Dahua's branding for full-colour night vision powered by a high-CRI warm-light LED combined with a large-aperture lens and high-sensitivity sensor. The 3649H-AS-PV-PRO is one of the WizSense 3-Series cameras that carries the WizColor designation.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC PRO deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC PRO deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ is white; DH-IPC-HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 6MP footage independently of the NVR. The PRO also supports dual-power backup (PoE + 12 V DC) so the camera keeps running if one power source fails.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

NVR5864 vs the family — how it compares
The 5864 (this model) is the storage flagship of the 5-Series AI/ANZ NVR range — double the HDD count of the 5464, hardware RAID 0/1/5/6/10, and a 2U chassis with extra alarm outputs and serial ports. Choose this when retention, redundancy or compliance-grade storage matters more than the smaller 1.5U footprint. For 64 channels in a smaller 1.5U chassis with 4 HDDs, step down to the 5464.

Frequently asked questions
What's the real benefit of RAID over disk groups?
Disk groups (on the 5464) protect against single-drive failures by warning you and isolating the bad drive — but you lose the recordings on that drive. RAID 5 and RAID 6 mathematically distribute parity across all drives, so a single (RAID 5) or even dual (RAID 6) drive failure causes zero footage loss. Compliance-driven sites (banks, casinos, healthcare, government) often require RAID for this reason.
Should I run RAID 5, RAID 6 or RAID 10?
RAID 5 (single-disk redundancy) gives 7 × 16 TB ≈ 112 TB usable across 8 × 16 TB drives — the typical default for surveillance. RAID 6 (dual-disk redundancy) gives ~96 TB usable but survives two simultaneous failures — recommended for critical sites. RAID 10 (mirror-of-stripes) gives ~64 TB usable but extremely fast playback — useful when the NVR drives the control-room wall directly.
Does this NVR really support AcuPick?
Yes. Dahua's V5 firmware (binary DH_NVR5XXX-EI_MultiLang_V5.001.0000000.0.R.251220 or later) enables AcuPick on the AI/ANZ unit alongside N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12. The firmware is published on Dahua AU's official product page for this model and ships from CCTV Guru with V5 installed. Older 2023-vintage datasheets predate this firmware, which is why some online documentation doesn't mention AcuPick.
Why is AcuPick capped at 32 channels when the NVR supports 64?
AcuPick is heavy on AI-chip resources — running attribute extraction and image-search against 64 channels simultaneously isn't possible on the current 5-Series silicon. You choose which 32 of the 64 channels run AcuPick (the rest still record, and still get ANPR / SMD Plus / perimeter via camera-side AI).
Why doesn't it have built-in PoE?
The 5864 is a headend NVR for sites with managed PoE switches. Sixty-four cameras through fixed PoE ports would need a 3–4U chassis with much higher power draw. Most 64-camera installs already have a switching layer, and dedicated PoE switches give you better cable layout, VLANs and redundancy than fixed-port PoE.
How much storage do I need for 64 cameras at 90 days retention?
For 64 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, expect ~100–120 TB for 90 days. Eight 16 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) in RAID 5 gives ~112 TB usable — exactly the right size. RAID 6 across the same 8 drives gives ~96 TB usable with two-disk redundancy.
Is the DHI-NVR5864-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 2U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 6.4 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~13–15 kg fully loaded with eight drives.

The integrated bullet sun shield protects the lens from glare and rain on exposed installs; the long zoom and longer illuminators turn a single camera into both a wide-angle perimeter shot and a high-zoom evidence camera. At telephoto it will detect motion at 257 m, recognise a person at 51.5 m, and identify a face at 25.7 m — three times the identification range of the fixed-lens 3849T1.
Combined with AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0, 120 dB WDR, EIS image stabilisation, AI Coding (≥25% extra compression), two-way audio and full TiOC 3.0 active deterrence, this is the camera Australian installers reach for on long rural driveways, large commercial yards, mining sites, carparks and any pole-mount scenario where remote zoom flexibility and identification at distance matter. Available in White (DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Motorised Vari-Focal 8MP Bullet
The vari-focal upgrade matters when one camera needs to do two jobs — cover a wide approach and pull tight on a number plate or face at the end of a long driveway. Where the fixed-lens 3849T1 bullet commits to a single 106° field of view forever, the ZAS lets you dial the zoom remotely after install. Combined with the bullet's integrated sun shield, longer chassis and pole-mount-friendly silhouette, this is the camera Australian installers reach for on rural driveways, large commercial yards, mining sites, carparks and any site where field-of-view requirements change over time.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Vari-Focal
Five times optical zoom with remote focus and zoom control via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Set the field of view once at install, then re-tune from your phone whenever the scene changes — no ladder, no scaffolding, no re-aiming.
Massive DORI Reach at Tele
At maximum zoom the 3849T1 ZAS will detect motion at 257 m, recognise a person at 51.5 m, and identify a face at 25.7 m — nearly three times the identification range of the fixed-lens 3849T1 bullet. One camera secures a footy-field-sized property.
50 m IR + 40 m Warm Light
Extended Smart Dual-Light reach matches the longer optical range — IR illumination out to 50 m, warm-light LED to 40 m. Enough to fully illuminate a long driveway or a typical carpark in pitch darkness.
Integrated Sun Shield & Bullet Body
The bullet sun visor cuts harsh Australian glare from the lens, reduces ghosting on backlit scenes, and keeps rain off the front element — critical for the unsheltered pole and gable mounts where long-range bullets typically end up.
TiOC 3.0 — Three-in-One Active Deterrence
Same active deterrence chain as the fixed-lens 3849T1: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle.
EIS + AI Coding
Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS) corrects subtle vibration on long-zoom shots from a pole or gable. AI Coding delivers ≥25% extra compression efficiency over Smart H.265+ — longer retention on the same NVR drive.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua TiOC 3 & PRO Webinar 2024 — Official English Walkthrough
Remote Zoom & Auto-Focus
Adjust the 2.7–13.5 mm zoom from the DMSS app or a Dahua NVR. The motor handles focus automatically as the lens zooms — no manual focus turret to fiddle with at the camera.
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in MICs and a 1-channel speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD
On-camera MicroSD records days of 4K footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.
One-Press Arming / Disarming
A single tap in the DMSS app arms or disarms the full TiOC chain. Disarm for parties and deliveries; rearm with one button for overnight and holidays.
Plug & Play + Third-Party VMS
Drops into any Dahua NVR via plug-and-play, and works over ONVIF Profile S/G/T with Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris and Synology Surveillance Station.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. With a long-zoom 4K bullet, the AcuPick payoff is even bigger: the long-tele footage carries enough pixel density for clean facial-attribute search at distance.

3849T1-ZAS (Motorised) vs 3849T1-AS (Fixed) — Which 8MP Bullet Should You Choose?
Both cameras run the same TiOC 3.0 active deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI, the same Smart Dual-Light system and the same 4K image quality in the same bullet chassis. The deciding question is the lens: do you need a single fixed field of view, or the flexibility to zoom in remotely? If the site has long sightlines, changing conditions, or you want one camera to cover both wide approach and high-zoom evidence, choose the ZAS. If you only need a fixed 106° wide view and the budget is tight, the fixed-lens 3849T1 is the cheaper pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the "ZAS" in 3849T1-ZAS mean?
"Z" stands for motorised zoom — this is the motorised vari-focal lens bullet version. "AS" = audio + alarm I/O (built-in MIC, speaker, alarm in/out). The fixed-lens equivalent is the 3849T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2. Both share the same chassis, AcuPick AI, TiOC 3.0 deterrence and Smart Dual-Light; the ZAS adds a 2.7–13.5 mm zoom lens with auto-focus you can drive remotely.
Is the motorised vari-focal bullet worth the extra cost?
If the site has long sightlines (driveways, perimeters, carparks) or if field-of-view requirements are likely to change (new fences, vegetation, signage), yes — the ability to remotely re-zoom from the app saves a service call every time. For a fixed shopfront or a narrow doorway, the fixed-lens 3849T1 bullet is the cheaper choice.
Can the camera pan and tilt remotely too, or just zoom?
The 3849T1-ZAS is a motorised vari-focal bullet, not a PTZ. The lens supports remote zoom and auto-focus, but the camera body itself does not pan or tilt remotely — the housing is aimed manually at install time. For a fully remote pan/tilt/zoom camera, look at a Dahua PTZ.
How does the ZAS bullet compare to the ZAS turret?
Same internals, different form factor. The bullet has an integrated sun shield, longer chassis and more visible silhouette — better for poles, gables and exposed eaves. The turret is more compact and discreet for wall-flush installs. Both share the same 5× motorised zoom, 50 m IR, AcuPick AI and TiOC 3.0 deterrence.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
How much PoE budget does this camera need?
The ZAS bullet draws a maximum of 9.8 W on PoE when the motor, strobe, siren and warm light are simultaneously active — well within the 802.3af PoE budget of 15.4 W. Most installs sit at 5–6 W in normal operation. Make sure your PoE switch budgets for the peak, especially on multi-camera switches.
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves, charcoal fascia and modern industrial aesthetics; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −30 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal + reinforced-plastic housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.

Frequently asked questions
What's the real difference between the 608H-128 and the 608H-32?
Same hardware platform — same 2U chassis with 8 HDD bays, same WizMind AI processor, same dual 2.5 GbE NICs, same 4 × HDMI outputs (including the 8K port). The differences are the IP channel licence (128 vs 32) and the AcuPick capacity (64 channels vs 32). At 128 channels, the recording bandwidth (1280 Mbps) is shared across four times as many cameras, so plan camera resolutions accordingly — 4 MP H.265+ is the sweet spot.
Does the WizMind series get a longer warranty?
Yes — WizMind 6-Series enterprise NVRs ship with a 5-year warranty in Australia, two years longer than the 3-year warranty on Dahua's WizSense (4-Series and 5-Series) products. The longer cover reflects the project-grade build and is part of why WizMind units carry a premium over WizSense.
Why does AcuPick only run on 64 channels when the NVR supports 128?
AcuPick is heavy on AI-chip resources — running attribute extraction and image-search against 128 channels simultaneously isn't possible on the current 6-Series silicon. You choose which 64 of the 128 channels run AcuPick (the rest still record, and still get ANPR / SMD Plus / perimeter via camera-side AI on Dahua WizSense or WizMind IPCs).
Why doesn't it have built-in PoE?
The 6-Series is purpose-built for enterprise headend deployments. 128 cameras through built-in PoE ports would mean a 4U+ chassis with extreme power draw. At this scale, sites always have a managed switching layer — pair this NVR with a stack of 24 or 48-port managed PoE+ switches across two or more network closets.
How big a PoE switch stack do I need for 128 cameras?
Allow about 7–15 W per camera for Dahua WizSense bullets/turrets, more for active-deterrence and PTZ cameras. Three 48-port PoE+ switches with ~370–500 W each will run 128 typical cameras comfortably, with spare ports for VoIP and APs. CCTV Guru can quote a complete switch + NVR + camera bundle.
How much storage do I need for 128 cameras at 30 days retention?
For 128 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, expect ~80–110 TB for 30 days. Eight 16 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) in RAID 5 gives ~112 TB usable — exactly the right size with single-disk redundancy. For longer retention or higher resolution, add the ESS1504C eSATA expansion tray or use iSCSI to a NAS.
Is the DHI-NVR608H-128-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 2U / 444 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 6.4 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~13–15 kg fully loaded with eight drives. The drawer-style HDD bays support hot-swapping, so you can replace failed drives without unmounting the chassis from the rack.

Dahua WizSense 3 · 8MP 4K Bullet · Smart Dual Light · AcuPick
Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3867T-ZAS-IL-ANZ — 8MP 4K Smart Dual Light Motorised Vari-Focal AcuPick Bullet
The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3867T-ZAS-IL-ANZ is an 8MP 4K motorised vari-focal bullet in the WizSense 3 Series · Smart Dual Light line — built around a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor, a 2.7–13.5 mm motorised zoom lens with F1.4 aperture, and four multi-core LEDs delivering both 60 m IR and 60 m warm-light illumination. The Smart Dual Light system runs invisible IR by default and switches to warm-light LED for full-colour image the moment a person or vehicle is detected — giving you clean colour evidence at the event, without the constant light spill of a full-time warm-light camera.
Unlike the TiOC bullets, the 3867T-ZAS-IL has no red/blue strobe, no on-board siren and no voice broadcast — it's a focused silent surveillance camera. What it does add over the IR-only 3866TP is the warm-light LED for full-colour night image, AcuPick AI attribute search, 16 Mbps bitrate ceiling, 512 GB MicroSD support, ONVIF Profile M and dual-power backup. Combined with SMD 4.0, EIS image stabilisation, AI Coding and AI SSA, it's the mid-tier sweet spot of Dahua's 8MP bullet line. Available in White and Black. Australian stock, 3-year Australian warranty.

Why Choose the Smart Dual Light AcuPick Bullet
The 3867T-ZAS-IL is the mid-tier 8MP bullet — between the silent IR-only 3866TP and the TiOC-deterrence 3849T1-ZAS-PV. It's the camera Australian installers reach for when they want colour evidence at night without the visible deterrent of red/blue strobe lights, plus the AcuPick AI workflow for fast post-incident search. Long perimeters, rural driveways, schools, healthcare, retail interiors and any site where colour identification matters more than active deterrence — this is the right tool.
Smart Dual Light — Colour Evidence on Detection
By default the camera uses invisible IR illumination out to 60 m for silent monitoring. The instant SMD 4.0 detects a human or vehicle, it switches to 60 m warm-light LED and records full-colour video — capturing clothing colour, vehicle paint and facial detail that IR alone cannot deliver.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Vari-Focal
Five-times optical zoom with remote focus and zoom via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Set the field of view once at install, then re-tune from your phone — no ladder, no re-aiming. Close focus down to 0.1 m for tight near-field shots.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute — clothing colour, vehicle type, direction — so you find any face or plate across a week of footage in seconds rather than scrubbing timelines.
F1.4 Large Aperture + 1/2.7" Sensor
An F1.4 maximum aperture across the entire zoom range pulls in significantly more light than a typical F1.6 lens, producing clean colour image at low light and reducing how often the warm-light LED needs to fire.
Massive DORI Reach at Tele
At maximum zoom the 3867T will detect motion at 280 m, recognise a person at 56 m, and identify a face at 28 m. One camera secures a typical Australian residential block end-to-end.
Built Tough for Australia
All-metal IP67 chassis with EIS stabilisation, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance, dual-power backup (PoE + 12 V DC simultaneously) and a −30 °C to +60 °C operating range — engineered for coastal salt, outback heat and unstable rural mains.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua Smart Dual Illuminators — Official English Overview
Remote Zoom & Auto-Focus
Adjust the 2.7–13.5 mm zoom from the DMSS app or a Dahua NVR. The motor handles focus automatically as the lens zooms — no manual focus turret to fiddle with at the camera.
SMD 4.0 + IVS Perimeter Protection
On-camera Smart Motion Detection 4.0 classifies humans and vehicles while filtering out animals, foliage and weather. IVS tripwire and intrusion detection trigger smart alerts — no false alarms from leaves in the wind.
EIS Image Stabilisation
Electronic Image Stabilisation corrects subtle vibration on long-zoom shots from a pole, gable or fence — keeping the image steady at 13.5 mm telephoto where small movements are most visible.
AI Coding — Lower Bandwidth & Storage
Dahua's AI Coding (AI H.265 / AI H.264) analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest, reducing storage and transmission cost over standard Smart H.265+.
Dual Sub-Streams at Full HD
Three streams simultaneously — Main 4K, plus a 1920 × 1080 sub-stream and a 1920 × 1080 third stream — gives flexibility for live view, mobile streaming and NVR recording at sharper resolution than typical D1 sub-streams.
Dual-Power Backup
Connect both 12 V DC and PoE simultaneously — if one source fails, the camera keeps running on the other. Useful for critical-uptime sites and rural installs with unreliable mains.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules and Smart Dual Light auto-switching all run on-camera and work with any Dahua AI NVR. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. For any new installation we strongly recommend pairing the 3867T-ZAS-IL with one of the recorders below.

3867T-ZAS-IL vs 3866TP-ZAS-AUS — Smart Dual Light or IR-Only?
Both cameras are 8MP 4K motorised vari-focal bullets sharing the same WizSense 3 architecture, SMD 4.0, IVS perimeter protection, EIS stabilisation and AI Coding. Neither has TiOC active deterrence. The deciding question is the illuminator and AI tier: do you want Smart Dual Light with full-colour evidence on detection and AcuPick AI search, or pure IR-only silent monitoring? The 3867T-ZAS-IL adds a 60 m warm-light LED for colour image, AcuPick attribute search, double the bitrate ceiling and double the MicroSD capacity. The 3866TP-ZAS-AUS is the simpler, cheaper IR-only option.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this camera have active deterrence (strobe / siren)?
No. The 3867T-ZAS-IL is a silent Smart Dual Light surveillance camera — no red/blue strobe, no built-in siren, no voice broadcast. If you need active deterrence, look at the Dahua TiOC line-up (HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the closest equivalent in the same form factor).
How is Smart Dual Light different from full-colour cameras?
Full-colour cameras run the warm-light LED constantly at night — clearly visible from outside, with light spill that can disturb neighbours. Smart Dual Light defaults to invisible IR for normal monitoring; the warm-light LED only fires when SMD 4.0 detects a real human or vehicle, then auto-switches back to IR. Less light pollution, less wear on the LED, full-colour evidence only when it matters.
Does it support AcuPick AI search?
Yes — AcuPick is supported on this camera when paired with a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. AcuPick indexes attribute metadata (clothing colour, vehicle type, direction) so you can search hours of footage in seconds. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
How does this compare to the IR-only 3866TP bullet?
Same 8MP / 4K sensor, same 2.7–13.5 mm motorised lens, same WizSense AI core. The 3867T-ZAS-IL adds a 60 m warm-light LED for colour image, AcuPick AI search, 16 Mbps bitrate (vs 8 Mbps), 512 GB MicroSD support (vs 256 GB), dual-power backup, and Full HD on both sub-streams. The 3866TP is the cheaper IR-only option for sites where colour at night isn't required.
Can the camera pan and tilt remotely?
No. The 3867T-ZAS-IL is a motorised vari-focal bullet, not a PTZ. The lens supports remote zoom and auto-focus, but the camera body itself does not pan or tilt remotely — the housing is aimed manually at install time. For a fully remote pan/tilt/zoom camera, look at a Dahua PTZ.
What does the camera see at night?
By default it uses 60 m IR illumination for invisible monitoring. When SMD 4.0 detects a person or vehicle, the warm-light LED switches on (also 60 m) and the camera captures full-colour 4K — clothing colour, vehicle paint, facial detail. Once the target leaves, it switches back to IR.
Does it have a built-in microphone?
Yes — the camera has a built-in microphone for capturing scene audio. There is also 1 audio in / 1 audio out (RCA) for connecting an external mic or speaker, plus 1 alarm in / 1 alarm out for PIRs or door contacts. (No built-in speaker.)
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. Combined with dual-power backup (PoE + 12 V DC simultaneously), the camera has multiple layers of redundancy.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −30 °C to +60 °C — covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The all-metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Yes — recording, streaming, motion and the WizSense AI metadata work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T/M on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, AcuPick attribute search requires a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?

WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 64-Channel · 4-HDD · 1.5U
The Dahua DHI-NVR5464-AI/ANZ is a 64-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with AcuPick, four SATA bays, dual Gigabit NICs, dual HDMI + dual VGA outputs, and a 1.5U rack chassis built for enterprise-scale installs. Record up to 32 MP per channel, run AcuPick across up to 32 channels, drive a 64-channel split on the main monitor, and scale storage to roughly 64 TB across the four 16 TB drives.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's a headend NVR with no built-in PoE — cameras connect through an external PoE switch or your existing managed network. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney. Designed for multi-site retail chains, transport hubs, large carparks, hospitals and any campus running 30–60+ cameras through a structured network. AcuPick, N+M cluster and iSCSI are enabled by Dahua's V5 firmware (current factory ship as of 2025).
AcuPick on up to 32 channels — enterprise-scale search
AcuPick Channels
Up to 32 ch · 1 event / channel / sec
Search Method
Image + attribute · front + back AI
Search by reference image
Click any person or vehicle in recorded video, hit AcuPick, and the NVR scans the active 32 channels for matches across hours or days — clothing colour, body shape, vehicle make / model / colour / direction included.
Front- + back-end intelligence
Camera-side AI extracts target attributes during recording; NVR-side AI runs the comparison. Higher accuracy than recorder-only search and orders of magnitude faster than human review.
Investigations finish in minutes
Find a suspect across the AcuPick-active channels and weeks of footage in a single search. Particularly valuable for police investigations, insurance disputes, and post-incident review.
ANPR + SMD Plus on all 64
While AcuPick covers up to 32 channels, ANPR by camera, SMD Plus by camera and perimeter protection by camera all scale across every connected camera up to 64 — site-wide intelligence with no channel left behind.

NVR5464 vs the family — how it compares
The 5464 (this model) sits at the top of the 5-Series AI/ANZ NVR range — twice the IP channel count of the 5432, with the same chassis, AI horsepower and storage capacity. Choose this when you have between 32 and 64 cameras connected via a structured PoE switch network. For 16–32 cameras on the same chassis, step down to the 5432; if you want built-in PoE for the first 16 cameras, choose the 5432-16P.

Frequently asked questions
Does this NVR really support AcuPick?
Yes. Dahua's V5 firmware (binary DH_NVR5XXX-EI_MultiLang_V5.001.0000000.0.R.251220 or later) enables AcuPick on the AI/ANZ unit alongside N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12. The firmware is published on Dahua AU's official product page for this model and ships from CCTV Guru with V5 installed. Older 2023-vintage datasheets predate this firmware, which is why some online documentation doesn't mention AcuPick.
Why is AcuPick capped at 32 channels when the NVR supports 64?
AcuPick is heavy on AI-chip resources — running attribute extraction and image-search against 64 channels simultaneously isn't possible on the current 5-Series silicon. You choose which 32 of the 64 channels run AcuPick (the rest still record, and still get ANPR / SMD Plus / perimeter via camera-side AI). For 64-channel AcuPick, look at Dahua's NVR6 series.
Why doesn't it have built-in PoE?
The 5464 is a headend NVR for sites with managed PoE switches. Sixty-four cameras through fixed PoE ports would mean a 3–4U chassis and a power supply that doesn't fit the 1.5U form factor. Most 64-camera installs already have a switching layer, and dedicated PoE switches give you better cable layout, VLANs and redundancy than fixed-port PoE.
What is AcuPick and what do I need for it?
AcuPick is Dahua's next-generation attribute-and-image search — it extracts rich target attributes (clothing, body shape, vehicle make/model/colour/plate, direction) at the camera AND the NVR, then lets you search by reference image or combined attributes. You need Dahua's AcuPick-ready cameras (typically TiOC PV and 5-Series WizSense Plus IPC families). Standard WizSense cameras still record and recognise faces but the full AcuPick depth requires paired AcuPick IPCs.
How big a PoE switch do I need for 64 cameras?
Allow about 7–15 W per camera for Dahua WizSense bullets/turrets, more for active-deterrence units and PTZs. Two 48-port PoE+ switches with ~370–500 W each will run 64 typical cameras comfortably, with spare ports for VoIP and APs. CCTV Guru can quote a complete switch + NVR bundle.
How much storage do I need for 64 cameras?
For 64 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, allow ~50–70 TB for 30 days of retention. Four 16 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) gives you ~64 TB on-board with disk-group protection. If on-board capacity isn't enough, iSCSI lets you expand onto network-attached storage or eSATA onto external archive arrays.
Is the DHI-NVR5464-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 1.5U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). It can also sit on a desk or shelf if you've allocated cabinet space. Plan for about 7–8 kg fully loaded with four drives.

Dahua TiOC 3.0 · Bullet · F1.0 · AcuPick
Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 — 6MP TiOC 3.0 AcuPick Active Deterrence Bullet
The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the bullet form-factor sibling of Dahua's 6MP TiOC 3.0 turret — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain, same AcuPick AI and same Smart Dual-Light system, but in a long, sun-shielded weatherproof body purpose-built for pole, eaves and gable mounting. The integrated sun visor cuts glare and rain ingress on the lens, the longer chassis dissipates heat better under direct Australian sun, and the visible-from-distance bullet silhouette is itself a deterrent before the strobe and siren even fire.
Built around a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor with a remarkable F1.0 aperture, AI Coding (≥25% extra compression efficiency), Lens Distortion Correction, 2 GB RAM and a Full HD sub-stream, the bullet actually carries some features the standard turret 3649 does not. Combined with AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0, 120 dB WDR, two-way audio and full TiOC 3.0 active deterrence, this is the camera Australian installers reach for on rural driveways, commercial yards, retail back lanes and any site where a bullet's reach and visibility matter. Available in White (DH-IPC-HFW3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HFW3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Bullet 3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 Over the Turret
Bullet and turret models can share the same internals — but the form factor changes the install. The bullet's integrated sun shield, longer chassis and more conspicuous silhouette make it the right call for Australian outdoor work: better glare and rain protection at the lens, better heat dissipation under direct sun, and a visible deterrence presence even before the strobe and siren fire. The 3649T1 bullet also picks up a few feature upgrades over the turret (F1.0 aperture, AI Coding, 2 GB RAM, LDC, Full HD sub-stream) — at no real price premium.
Integrated Sun Shield & Bullet Body
The sun visor cuts harsh Australian glare from the lens, reduces ghosting on backlit scenes, and keeps rain off the front element — critical for the unsheltered fascia and pole mounts where bullets typically end up.
F1.0 Large Aperture
The bullet ships with an F1.0 aperture (2.5× the light gathering of F1.6) — wider than the standard 6MP turret. Cleaner colour image in low light, less reliance on warm-light LED to lift exposure.
TiOC 3.0 — Three-in-One Active Deterrence
Same proven TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain as the turret: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute — clothing colour, vehicle type, direction — so you find any face or plate across a week of footage in seconds.
AI Coding — 25%+ Less Storage
Dahua's AI Coding analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest. ≥25% additional compression efficiency over Smart H.265+ — longer retention on the same NVR drive.
Built Tough for Australia
IP67 ingress protection, metal + reinforced-plastic chassis, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance and a −40 °C to +60 °C operating range mean it shrugs off coastal salt, outback heat, Tasmanian frost and unstable rural mains.

IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in MICs and a 1-channel speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 512 GB
On-camera MicroSD records weeks of 6MP footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.
3:2 Sensor Aspect — More Vertical Pixels
The bullet uses a 3072 × 2048 (3:2 aspect) sensor crop — taller than the standard 16:9 frame. Useful for doorways, narrow passages, tall fences and pole-mounted approach views.
Lens Distortion Correction (LDC)
On-camera LDC automatically corrects the slight barrel distortion natural to wide-angle 2.8 mm lenses. Straight walls stay straight on playback — important for evidential footage.
Plug & Play + Third-Party VMS
Drops into any Dahua NVR via plug-and-play, and works over ONVIF Profile S/G/T with Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris and Synology Surveillance Station.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. For any new installation we strongly recommend pairing the 3649T1 bullet with one of the recorders below.

3649T1 Bullet vs 3649H Turret — Which 6MP TiOC Should You Choose?
Both cameras run the same TiOC 3.0 active deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI, the same Smart Dual-Light system and the same 6MP image quality. The deciding question is the form factor: do you want a long sun-shielded bullet visible from distance, or a compact turret that hugs the wall? If the camera mounts on a pole, a gable, a fascia under direct sun, or anywhere that the visual deterrent of a bullet matters, choose the 3649T1. If you want a discreet wall-hugging install with easier cleaning, choose the 3649H turret.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the bullet 3649T1 and the turret 3649H?
Both run the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI, the same 6MP image quality and the same 30 m Smart Dual-Light. The difference is form factor: the bullet has an integrated sun shield, a longer chassis and a more visible silhouette — better for poles, gables and exposed eaves. The bullet also picks up a few feature upgrades over the turret (F1.0 aperture, AI Coding, 2 GB RAM, LDC) at the same price tier.
Is the bullet better than the turret for outdoor use?
In direct sun and rain, yes — the integrated sun shield keeps glare and water off the front element. In sheltered or undercover installs (eaves, soffits, indoor), the turret is more compact and discreet. Bullets are also typically the easier mount for pole-and-fence installations.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HFW3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HFW3649T1-AS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves, charcoal fascia and modern industrial aesthetics; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 6MP footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Can I speak through the camera?
Yes. Dual built-in microphones and a 1-channel speaker enable real-time two-way audio through the DMSS app or a compatible Dahua NVR — ideal for warning intruders, instructing couriers or speaking to family at the door.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal + reinforced-plastic housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3667T-ZAS-IL-ANZ — 6 MP Smart Dual Light Motorised Vari-focal Bullet WizSense Network Camera
The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3667T-ZAS-IL-ANZ is a 6 MP WizSense 3 outdoor bullet IP camera built around a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor delivering 3288 × 1850 at 25/30 fps with Smart H.265+ encoding. A motorised vari-focal 2.7–13.5 mm F1.4 lens covers everything from a 114° wide overview to a tight 32° long-range pull, and Dahua's Smart Dual Light engine combines a 60 m IR illuminator with a 60 m warm-light array so the camera runs in covert IR until a person or vehicle is classified, then flips to full-colour with white light on the target. WDR is rated at a full 120 dB, IP67 sealed, with built-in microphone, 1/1 alarm I/O and 1/1 audio I/O on RCA.
It is built for Australian properties that need one camera to handle both general site surveillance and event-driven evidence capture — driveways, carparks, loading docks, rural sheds, paddock approaches, depot perimeters and small business shopfronts. The WizSense 3 deep-learning chip runs SMD 4.0, perimeter protection (tripwire + intrusion with human/vehicle classification) and AcuPick on the edge, working with compatible Dahua AcuPick NVRs to search recorded footage by colour, clothing and direction. Cyber hardening covers trusted boot, trusted execution, 802.1x, HTTPS and IP/MAC filtering; dual-power backup accepts both 12 VDC and PoE (802.3af, 12.5 W max) — all backed by a 3-year Australian warranty through CCTV Guru.

Why Choose the Dahua HFW3667T-ZAS-IL-ANZ
This is the Dahua bullet most installers reach for when a site needs one camera that does the job of two — a wide-angle scene camera by day and an evidence-grade target camera at night. Below are the six reasons it consistently outperforms generic 6 MP bullets in Australian deployments.
True 6 MP Image, Not Upscaled
The 1/2.7" CMOS captures a native 3288 × 1850 raster — more than double the pixel density of 1080p — so digital zoom into faces, plates and signage stays usable instead of dissolving into a noise field.
One Camera, Two Lighting Modes
Smart Dual Light runs invisibly on 60 m IR until WizSense classifies a person or vehicle, then automatically switches the 60 m warm light on the target — full-colour evidence on demand without permanent light pollution to neighbours.
120 dB WDR for AU Sun
Driveways shaded by colourbond, north-facing entries, glass-fronted shops — the camera's 120 dB true wide dynamic range holds detail in both the bright sky and the dark interior in a single frame, where lesser cameras blow out one side.
Motorised Vari-focal — Adjust from the App
2.7–13.5 mm with motorised zoom and auto-focus means an installer (or you, via DMSS) can re-frame the scene without climbing a ladder again. Detect range: up to 280 m at the tele end.
AcuPick-Ready Edge AI
Paired with a Dahua AcuPick NVR, this camera lets you search hours of recorded video by attributes — "red top, blue trousers, walking east" — and pulls matching clips in seconds, not hours.
Built for Australian Power
Dual-power backup accepts 12 VDC or PoE simultaneously, and the wide-voltage tolerance shrugs off the unstable rural-grid sag that fries cheap cameras. RCM-marked, AS/NZS-compliant, supplied stock from our AU warehouse.
Important Install Note
This camera draws up to 12.5 W on PoE when WDR, warm light and AI are all active. On longer cable runs (over 90 m) and on PoE switches that share power across many ports, plan for an 802.3at-capable switch or a local 12 VDC supply at the camera. The body is metal and IP67-rated — for outdoor mounting in exposed positions we recommend pairing with the DH-PFA130-E water-proof junction box to protect the RJ-45 termination from condensation.
AI & Smart Detection Capabilities
AcuPick Target Search
Deep-learning attribute matching across people and vehicles. Find a target across hours of recorded video by colour, top/bottom clothing, vehicle type and direction — when paired with a compatible Dahua AcuPick NVR.
SMD 4.0 — Smart Motion Detection
Motion alerts triggered only by humans and vehicles. Wind-blown branches, small animals, possums on a fence and shadows are filtered out at the edge — slashing false-alarm volume.
Perimeter Protection (IVS)
Configurable tripwire and intrusion zones with human-and-vehicle classification. Draw a line across a driveway or a polygon around a yard and only get pushed an alert when the right type of target crosses it.
Smart Dual Light Deterrence
When WizSense classifies a person in the warm-light zone, the 60 m white light triggers automatically, leaving subjects in no doubt they have been captured in full colour — a passive deterrent that costs nothing extra in licensing or hardware.
AI SSA — Scene Self-Adaptation
The camera detects environmental conditions like rain, fog, backlight, low light and flicker, and automatically adjusts image parameters to keep the scene clear without an operator touching the settings.
Smart Search & Event Extraction
Pairs with a Smart NVR to refine intelligent search, extract and merge event video. Skip past hours of empty footage and jump straight to the moments where something the AI flagged as relevant happened.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Dahua HFW3667T-ZAS-IL-ANZ NDAA compliant?
No. Dahua is not certified under NDAA Section 889. If your project has an NDAA mandate (US federal, certain Australian government contracts, or critical-infrastructure tenders that follow the same standard), choose a NDAA-compliant brand from our range instead.
Does this camera include AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick attribute search is built into the camera's WizSense 3 firmware. To actually search recorded footage by attributes you must record to a compatible Dahua AcuPick NVR running V5 firmware.
Is this a TiOC camera?
No. TiOC SKUs carry the "PV" infix in the model number. This camera is a Smart Dual Light WizSense 3 model — it can illuminate a target on detection but does not have a red/blue strobe or built-in siren. For full TiOC active deterrence, see the HFW3849T1-ZAS-PV-ANZ sibling above.
What is the warranty in Australia?
3 years, supplied through CCTV Guru as an authorised Australian Dahua reseller. We handle warranty claims locally — no overseas shipping required.
How far can it see at night?
Smart Dual Light gives 60 m on IR and 60 m on warm light. Identification range (where a face is recognisable) reaches 28 m at the tele end of the zoom under standard conditions.
Can I run this camera on standard PoE?
Yes — it is 802.3af-compliant and pulls a maximum of 12.5 W when warm light, WDR and AI are all active. Any quality 802.3af switch with budget headroom will run it. For long cable runs over 90 m, plan for an 802.3at switch or a local 12 VDC supply.
Does it have a microphone?
Yes, the camera has a built-in microphone, plus 1 × RCA audio in and 1 × RCA audio out for connecting an external mic or speaker. NDIS, retail and bus-stop sites should check local audio-recording legislation before enabling sound recording.
What SD card size does it support?
Up to 512 GB Micro SD for edge recording. We recommend genuine Dahua DHI-TF-P100/512GB cards for predictable surveillance-grade endurance.
Does it work with third-party NVRs?
Yes — it supports ONVIF Profile S, G, T and M, so it will record to any ONVIF-compatible third-party NVR. Note that AcuPick attribute search and SMD 4.0 alarm push only work end-to-end on a genuine Dahua AI NVR.
Is it certified for the Australian market?
Yes — the ANZ variant is supplied through Dahua's Australian channel with RCM marking, CE-LVD (EN62368-1) and CE-EMC (2014/30/EU) compliance. It is the correct SKU for AU/NZ projects.
Do you ship Australia-wide?

WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 16-Channel · 16-PoE · 4-HDD · 1.5U
The Dahua DHI-NVR5416-16P-AI/ANZ is a 16-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with AcuPick, 16 built-in PoE+ ports (ports 1–8 ePoE up to 800 m), and a 1.5U chassis with four SATA bays — the perfect middle-ground between the compact 2-HDD 5216-16P and the storage-heavy 8-HDD 5832-16P. Record up to 32 MP per channel, plug 16 cameras straight into the back of the recorder, and scale storage to roughly 64 TB on-board across four 16 TB drives.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's the all-in-one 16-channel option with double the storage of the 5216-16P — same PoE budget, same chassis depth, but room for two extra HDDs and longer retention. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney. AcuPick, N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12 are enabled by Dahua's V5 firmware (current factory ship as of 2025).
16 PoE+ ports + 4-HDD storage — built for upgrades
PoE Ports
16 × · 130 W · 1–8 ePoE 800 m
Storage
4 SATA · up to 64 TB on-board
16 cameras plug straight in
Each Cat6 run carries power and video back to the NVR — no power adaptors at every camera, no separate PoE switch. Full 16-channel PoE coverage with a 130 W total budget — comfortable for typical Dahua WizSense bullets and turrets at 7–9 W each.
ePoE on ports 1–8 (800 m)
Extended PoE on the first 8 ports — 100 Mbps up to 300 m, or 10 Mbps up to 800 m on Cat6. Eliminates intermediate switches and fibre runs on long perimeter or carpark cable runs.
4 SATA bays · 64 TB max
Twice the storage of the smaller 5216-16P. Four surveillance-grade HDDs (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) up to 16 TB each — roughly 90–120 days of 16-channel motion-record at 4 MP H.265+.
Powers PoE+ cameras
25.5 W per port (PoE+ / 802.3at) — handles IR-heavy bullets, mini PTZs, multi-sensor cameras and active-deterrence units that exceed the basic 15 W PoE ceiling. Plan for ~8 W average per camera across the 16 ports.

NVR5416-16P vs the family — how it compares
The 5416-16P (this model) is the upgraded 16-channel option — same PoE budget and AI features as the 5216-16P but with double the HDD bays and a 1.5U chassis. Choose this when your install needs longer retention or higher-resolution recording but you don't need to jump up to 32 channels. For the most compact build, step down to the 5216-16P; for 32 channels with RAID-protected 8-HDD storage, step up to the 5832-16P.

Frequently asked questions
What's the real benefit over the smaller NVR5216-16P?
Same 16 channels and same 16 PoE+ ports — but the 5416-16P (this model) doubles the HDD bays from 2 to 4, doubles your on-board storage ceiling (~64 TB vs ~32 TB), upgrades video output from single HDMI/VGA to dual HDMI/VGA, and adds 16 alarm inputs / 6 alarm outputs (vs 4 / 2) plus eSATA. Choose this when you want longer retention or hardware alarm integration on your 16-channel build.
What does ePoE on ports 1–8 give me?
Extended PoE — long-distance Cat6 runs at reduced speed. Ports 1–8 support 100 Mbps up to 300 m or 10 Mbps up to 800 m (most IP cameras work fine at 10 Mbps for sub-stream + main-stream H.265+). Eliminates intermediate switches on long perimeter or carpark runs. Ports 9–16 run standard PoE+ at up to 100 m.
Does this NVR really support AcuPick?
Yes. Dahua's V5 firmware (binary DH_NVR5XXX-EI_MultiLang_V5.001.0000000.0.R.251220 or later) enables AcuPick on the AI/ANZ unit alongside N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12. The firmware is published on Dahua AU's official product page and ships from CCTV Guru with V5 installed.
How much storage do I need for 16 cameras?
For 16 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, expect ~12–18 TB for 30 days of retention. Four 6–8 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple, Seagate SkyHawk) gives you ~24–32 TB on-board — roughly 60–90 days. For longer retention or higher resolution, fit 16 TB drives (the maximum supported) for up to 64 TB total.
How does the 16 PoE budget cover 16 cameras?
130 W total ÷ 16 cameras = ~8 W average per camera. That's comfortable for most Dahua WizSense bullets and turrets (5–9 W each). If you're running PTZ, IR-heavy bullets or active-deterrence units (15–25 W each), plan to mix in some lower-draw cameras or use an external PoE injector for the high-power ones.
Is the DHI-NVR5416-16P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 1.5U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 4.82 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~8–10 kg fully loaded with four drives.
What's the 12 V alarm output for?
One of the 6 alarm outputs is a direct 12 V 1 A power feed — drive a siren, strobe light or electric strike directly without needing an external relay or power supply. The other 5 outputs are dry-contact relays you can wire to anything that takes a NO/NC trigger.

Dahua TiOC 3.0 · Motorised Vari-Focal · F1.0 · AcuPick
Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 — 6MP TiOC 3.0 Motorised Vari-Focal AcuPick Active Deterrence Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the motorised vari-focal sibling of Dahua's 6MP TiOC 3.0 line — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain, same AcuPick AI and same Smart Dual-Light system as the fixed-lens 3649, but with a remotely-adjustable 2.7–13.5 mm zoom lens, a remarkable F1.0 aperture, and substantially longer reach. At wide-angle it covers a 104° field of view; at telephoto it can identify a face at 18.7 m and detect motion out to 186 m — turning a single camera into both a perimeter wide-shot and a high-zoom evidence camera.
Combined with extended 50 m IR + 40 m warm-light illumination (versus 30 m on the fixed-lens 3649), AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering, AI Coding (≥25% extra compression efficiency), EIS image stabilisation and full TiOC 3.0 active deterrence, this is the camera Australian installers reach for when they need both wide coverage and long-range identification from one mounting point — without paying the 4K-storage premium of the 8MP ZAS. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Motorised Vari-Focal 3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2
The vari-focal upgrade matters when one camera needs to do two jobs — cover a wide approach and pull tight on a number plate or face at the end of the driveway. Where the fixed-lens 3649 commits to a single 2.8 mm field of view forever, the ZAS lets you dial the zoom remotely after install, after a fence is built, after vegetation grows in, or after you change your mind. It's the camera Australian installers reach for on long rural driveways, carparks, loading docks, school perimeters and anywhere field-of-view requirements change over time — at a friendlier price point than the 8MP ZAS sibling.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Vari-Focal
Five-times optical zoom with remote focus and zoom control via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Set the field of view once at install, then re-tune from your phone whenever the scene changes — no ladder, no scaffolding, no re-aiming.
F1.0 Aperture — Class-Leading Light Gathering
An F1.0 aperture across the entire zoom range — extremely rare for a vari-focal lens. F1.0 lets in 2.5× more light than a typical F1.6 fixed lens, the single biggest factor behind clean colour image in dark conditions.
Massive DORI Reach at Tele
At maximum zoom the 3649 ZAS will detect motion at 186 m, recognise a person at 37.3 m, and identify a face at 18.7 m — nearly three times the identification range of the fixed-lens 3649. One camera can secure a typical Australian residential block end-to-end.
50 m IR + 40 m Warm Light
Extended Smart Dual-Light reach matches the longer optical range — IR illumination out to 50 m, warm-light LED to 40 m. Enough to fully illuminate a long driveway or a typical carpark in pitch darkness.
TiOC 3.0 — Three-in-One Active Deterrence
Same active deterrence chain as the fixed-lens 3649: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire automatically the moment SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle. No operator, no extra hardware.
AI Coding + EIS Stabilisation
AI Coding delivers ≥25% extra compression efficiency over Smart H.265+, while Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS) — unique to the ZAS in this line — corrects subtle vibration on long-zoom shots from a pole or gable.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua TiOC 3 & PRO Webinar 2024 — Official English Walkthrough
Remote Zoom & Auto-Focus
Adjust the 2.7–13.5 mm zoom from the DMSS app or a Dahua NVR. The motor handles focus automatically as the lens zooms — no manual focus turret to fiddle with at the camera.
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in MICs and an on-board speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 512 GB
On-camera MicroSD records weeks of 6MP footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.
3:2 Sensor Aspect — More Vertical Pixels
The 6MP ZAS uses a 3072 × 2048 sensor crop (3:2 aspect) — taller than the standard 3649's 16:9 frame. Useful for doorways, narrow passages and tall fences where you want vertical reach without sacrificing horizontal coverage.
Plug & Play + Third-Party VMS
Drops into any Dahua NVR via plug-and-play, and works over ONVIF Profile S/G/T with Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris and Synology Surveillance Station.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. With a long-zoom 6MP camera the AcuPick payoff is even bigger: the long-tele footage carries enough pixel density for clean facial-attribute search at distance.

3649H-ZAS (Motorised) vs 3649H-AS (Fixed) — Which 6MP TiOC Should You Choose?
Both cameras share the same chassis, the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The deciding question is the lens: do you need a single fixed field of view, or the flexibility to zoom in remotely? If the site has long sightlines, changing conditions, or you want one camera to cover both wide approach and high-zoom evidence, choose the ZAS. If you only need a fixed 97° wide view and the budget is tight, the fixed-lens 3649 is the cheaper pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the "Z" in 3649H-ZAS mean?
"Z" stands for motorised zoom — this is the motorised vari-focal lens version of the 6MP TiOC 3.0 line. The fixed-lens equivalent is the 3649H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2. Both share the same chassis, AcuPick AI, TiOC 3.0 deterrence and Smart Dual-Light; the ZAS adds a 2.7–13.5 mm zoom lens with auto-focus you can drive remotely.
Is the motorised vari-focal version worth the extra cost?
If the site has long sightlines (driveways, perimeters, carparks) or if field-of-view requirements are likely to change (new fences, vegetation, signage), yes — the ability to remotely re-zoom from the app saves a service call every time. For a fixed shop entrance or a narrow doorway, the fixed-lens 3649 is the cheaper choice.
Why pick the 6MP ZAS over the 8MP ZAS?
Two reasons. First, cheaper storage — 6MP files are about 30% smaller than 4K, so the same NVR drive holds more days of footage. Second, the 6MP ZAS uses a 3:2 aspect ratio (3072 × 2048) rather than 16:9 — giving more vertical pixels, useful for tall scenes like doorways and narrow passages. If you don't need 4K-level zoom-in capability, the 6MP ZAS often makes more sense.
Can the camera pan and tilt remotely too, or just zoom?
The 3649H-ZAS is a motorised vari-focal turret, not a PTZ. The lens supports remote zoom and auto-focus, but the camera body itself does not pan or tilt remotely — the housing is aimed manually at install time. For a fully remote pan/tilt/zoom camera, look at a Dahua PTZ.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
How much PoE budget does this camera need?
The ZAS draws a maximum of 12.1 W on PoE when the motor, strobe, siren and warm light are simultaneously active — well within the 802.3af PoE budget of 15.4 W. Most installs sit at 5–6 W in normal operation. Make sure your PoE switch budgets for the peak, especially on multi-camera switches.
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is white; DH-IPC-HDW3649H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 6MP footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have three redundant recording paths: NVR, MicroSD and event clips to your phone.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −30 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.

Dahua DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ — 8MP 4K Smart Dual Light AcuPick Vandal Dome Camera
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ is an 8MP 4K Smart Dual Light fixed-lens vandal dome from Dahua's WizSense 3 Series — engineered for Australian commercial, retail, school, healthcare, government and industrial sites that need 4K detail, full-colour night image, AI search and a tamper-resistant IK10 housing, all in a compact ceiling-flush package. Built around a 1/2.7" CMOS sensor with an F1.4 large aperture, the camera captures crisp 3840 × 2160 footage in a 110° wide field of view, then switches between 30 m invisible IR and 30 m warm-light LED automatically based on what's in the scene — invisible monitoring by default, full-colour evidence the instant a person or vehicle is detected.
Powered by Dahua's WizSense AI, the 3867E adds AcuPick attribute search, SMD 4.0 human/vehicle classification, IVS tripwire + intrusion, AI Coding (≥25% extra compression efficiency), AI SSA scene adaptation and Quick Pick rapid-event search to the surveillance workflow. The all-metal IP67 + IK10 housing takes a 20 J hammer strike without breaking. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ) and Black (DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ-BLK).

Why Choose the Dahua 8MP Smart Dual Light Vandal Dome in Australia
Australian integrators specify the HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ when the install needs to combine three things at once — 4K resolution for evidence-grade detail, full-colour night image on detection, and a vandal-resistant flush-mount housing. School corridors, hospital wards, undercover carparks, retail back-of-house, government foyers and high-traffic commercial spaces all share the same install constraint: the camera has to disappear into the ceiling and survive being grabbed, hit or kicked, while still capturing forensic-quality colour video at night. The 3867E is built for exactly that brief.
Smart Dual Light — Colour Evidence on Detection
By default the camera runs invisible IR illumination out to 30 m for silent monitoring. The instant SMD 4.0 detects a human or vehicle, it switches to the warm-light LED (also 30 m) and records full-colour 4K — capturing clothing colour, hair colour, vehicle paint and signage detail that IR alone cannot deliver. Once the target leaves, the warm light turns off and the IR returns — minimising light pollution and LED wear.
AcuPick AI Target Search
Paired with a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR, AcuPick indexes every human and vehicle event by attribute — clothing colour, vehicle type, direction of travel — so you can search a week of recorded footage in seconds rather than scrubbing timelines. Critical for retail loss-prevention, school incident review and any site with high event volume.
IK10 Vandal Resistance — Built In as Standard
The all-metal dome housing is rated IK10: it withstands more than 5 strikes from a 5 kg hammer falling 40 cm — 20 J of impact energy — without cracking or losing function. Translation: a teenager swinging a brick, a trolley hit in a carpark, or a fist swung in a corridor won't take the camera offline.
F1.4 Large Aperture + 1/2.7" Sensor
An F1.4 maximum aperture pulls in significantly more light than a typical F1.6 lens, delivering clean colour image at low ambient light and reducing how often the warm-light LED needs to fire.
110° Wide Angle — Whole-Room Coverage
The 2.8 mm fixed lens covers a 110° horizontal field of view — enough to cover a full corridor, an open-plan office, a school classroom or a retail aisle from a single mounting point. (3.6 mm variant also available with an 86° narrower field for targeted views.)
Built Tough for Australia
All-metal IP67 chassis with EIS stabilisation, ±30% wide-voltage tolerance, and an operating range engineered for every Australian climate — coastal salt, outback heat, Tasmanian frost and unstable rural mains.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua Smart Dual Illuminators — Official English Overview
SMD 4.0 — Near-Zero False Alarms
On-camera Smart Motion Detection 4.0 classifies humans and vehicles while filtering out animals, foliage, weather and shadows. Sleep through the night, not through the alarm.
IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across a corridor or a no-go zone around a service door — get a notification only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it. No false alarms from cleaners or moving shadows.
AI Coding — 25%+ Less Storage
Dahua's AI Coding (AI H.265 / AI H.264) analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest, delivering ≥25% additional compression efficiency over standard Smart H.265+. Longer retention on the same NVR drive.
AI SSA Scene Self-Adaptation
AI SSA detects environmental conditions — rain, fog, backlight, low light, flicker — and adjusts image parameters in real time. The camera always produces a usable image, even when the weather doesn't cooperate.
Two Lens Options (2.8 mm and 3.6 mm)
Choose 2.8 mm for wide-area coverage (110° H — whole rooms and corridors) or 3.6 mm for narrower targeted views (86° H — entries, counters, specific zones). Same camera, two install patterns.
External Audio & Alarm I/O
The AS variant supports 1 audio in / 1 audio out (RCA) plus 1 alarm in / 1 alarm out — connect an external speaker, PIR or door contact to extend the camera's capability. Built-in microphone included on-camera.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, Smart Dual Light auto-switching and human/vehicle classification all run on-camera and work with any Dahua AI NVR. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. For any new installation we strongly recommend pairing the 3867E with one of the recorders below.

Best Applications for the 8MP Smart Dual Light Vandal Dome
The DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ is the right tool when a project brief calls out vandal resistance, discreet ceiling-flush form factor, full-colour night image and AI-powered search. Typical Australian deployments include:
Schools and tertiary campuses — corridors, halls, common rooms and entries where IK10 takes student-grade abuse
Hospitals, GP clinics and aged-care — wards, reception areas, dispensaries where silent IR + colour-on-detection is critical
Retail interiors — store floor, back-of-house, counter zones — AcuPick speeds incident review for loss-prevention
Government foyers and councils — public-facing entrances and corridors needing tamper-resistant 4K coverage
Carparks and loading docks — undercover, exposed-ceiling installs where IK10 protects against trolleys, vehicles and weather
Hotels, motels and student accommodation — common areas, corridors and lobbies where the camera must blend into the architecture
Warehouses, factories, gyms — high-ceiling install with wide-area coverage and AI motion filtering
Apartment building common areas — lift lobbies, bin rooms, foyers — IK10 + 4K + colour-on-detection

HDBW3867E (Smart Dual Light + AcuPick) vs HDBW3866RP (IR-Only) — Which Vandal Dome?
Both cameras are 8MP 4K IK10 vandal-rated domes in the WizSense 3 Series, sharing the same SMD 4.0, IVS perimeter protection and AI Coding. The deciding question is illumination and AI tier: do you want Smart Dual Light with full-colour evidence on detection and AcuPick AI search, or IR-only silent monitoring with a longer DORI reach via motorised zoom? The 3867E adds Smart Dual Light, AcuPick attribute search and a fixed lens at a more affordable price point. The 3866RP is the motorised long-range alternative without warm light or AcuPick.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Smart Dual Light and how does it work?
Smart Dual Light is Dahua's technology for combining invisible IR illumination with a warm-light LED in one camera. By default the camera uses IR (invisible, no light pollution) for normal night monitoring. The instant on-camera AI detects a human or vehicle, the warm-light LED fires and the camera captures full-colour 4K — clothing colour, vehicle paint, facial detail. Once the target leaves the scene, the warm light turns off and IR returns. Less light pollution than a full-time full-colour camera, full-colour evidence when it matters.
Does this camera support AcuPick AI search?
Yes — AcuPick is supported when paired with a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR. AcuPick indexes attribute metadata (clothing colour, vehicle type, direction) so you can search hours of footage in seconds rather than scrubbing timelines. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
What does IK10 vandal resistance mean in practice?
IK10 is the highest rating in the IEC 62262 impact-resistance standard. The dome housing withstands more than 5 strikes from a 5 kg hammer falling 40 cm — 20 J of impact energy — without cracking or losing function. In real terms: brick throws, fist strikes, trolley impacts and accidental hits won't take the camera offline.
Should I pick the 2.8 mm or 3.6 mm lens variant?
Choose 2.8 mm (110° H FOV) for whole-room coverage — open-plan offices, retail floors, classrooms, hospital wards, undercover carparks. Choose 3.6 mm (86° H FOV) for narrower targeted views — counter zones, entry doors, specific aisles or zones where you want a tighter shot at the same camera distance. The 3.6 mm trades width for slightly better digital detail on the target.
Does this camera have active deterrence (strobe / siren)?
No. The HDBW3867E-AS-IL is a silent Smart Dual Light surveillance camera — no red/blue strobe, no built-in siren, no voice broadcast. The warm-light LED only fires when AI confirms a human/vehicle — it's an illumination tool, not a deterrence visual. For active deterrence (strobe + siren + voice), look at the Dahua TiOC line (HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 turret is the closest equivalent).
Why pick the dome over a bullet or turret?
Three reasons. First, vandal resistance — IK10 built-in housing is designed to take impact; bullets and turrets are easier to grab and tear off. Second, discreet flush-mount profile — the compact 89 mm × Φ112 mm dome sits neatly into ceilings and soffits. Third, architectural fit — domes blend into commercial interior design where a bullet would look industrial.
How does the camera record at night?
By default, invisible IR illumination (30 m) — captures clear monochrome 4K with no light pollution. When SMD 4.0 detects a real human or vehicle, the warm-light LED (also 30 m) switches on automatically and the camera records full-colour 4K. Once the target leaves the scene, the camera reverts to IR. You get the best of both: silent IR for normal monitoring, colour for actual events.
Does it have a built-in microphone?
Yes — the camera has a built-in microphone for capturing scene audio. The AS variant also adds external audio in / out (RCA) for connecting an external mic or speaker, plus alarm in / out for PIRs or door contacts.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. Combined with DMSS cloud push notifications, you have redundant recording paths.
What's the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ is white; DH-IPC-HDBW3867E-AS-IL-ANZ-BLK is black. Choose Black for dark ceilings, charcoal soffits and modern industrial aesthetics; White for traditional cream/render ceilings.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 (fully dust-tight, withstands 30 minutes submerged in 1 m of water) and IK10 vandal-resistant. The all-metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance handle coastal salt, outback heat and unstable rural mains. Suitable for under-eave, undercover and exposed outdoor installs alike.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Yes — recording, streaming, motion and the WizSense AI metadata work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T/M on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, AcuPick attribute search requires a Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty, serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.

WizSense + AcuPick · 5-Series · 32-Channel · 16-PoE · 8-HDD RAID · 2U
The Dahua DHI-NVR5832-16P-AI/ANZ is a 32-channel 5-Series WizSense AI NVR with AcuPick, 16 built-in PoE+ ports (ports 1–8 ePoE up to 800 m), eight SATA bays with RAID 0/1/5/6/10, and a 2U rack chassis built for long-retention enterprise installs. Plug 16 cameras straight into the recorder, bring in another 16 via network, record up to 32 MP per channel, and protect the entire archive across RAID-distributed storage scaling to roughly 128 TB on-board.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's the all-in-one option in our 5-Series 32-channel range — built-in PoE for the first 16 cameras, RAID-protected storage on the same chassis, and AcuPick searching across 16 channels at once. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 3-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney. AcuPick, N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12 are enabled by Dahua's V5 firmware (current factory ship as of 2025).
16 PoE+ ports + 8-HDD RAID — true all-in-one
PoE Ports

Storage
8 SATA · RAID 0/1/5/6/10 · ~128 TB
16 cameras plug straight in
Each Cat6 run carries power and video back to the NVR — no power adaptors at every camera, no separate PoE switch for the first 16 channels. Sixteen more cameras come in via your existing managed network for the full 32-channel licence.
ePoE on ports 1–8 (800 m)
Extended PoE on the first 8 ports — 100 Mbps up to 300 m, or 10 Mbps up to 800 m on Cat6. Eliminates intermediate switches and fibre runs on long perimeter or carpark cable runs.
RAID 5 / RAID 6 / RAID 10
Hardware RAID across all 8 SATA bays — survive single-drive (RAID 5) or dual-drive (RAID 6) failures with zero footage loss. Rebuilds run in the background while recording continues.
Powers PoE+ cameras
25.5 W per port (PoE+ / 802.3at) with 150 W total budget — comfortable for 16 standard cameras (~9 W each), or mix of 6-8 high-power PTZ / IR-heavy cameras at 25 W.

Frequently asked questions
What's the real benefit of this over the smaller 5432-16P?
Same 32 channels and same 16 PoE+ port count, but the 5832-16P (this model) doubles the HDD bays (8 vs 4) and adds hardware RAID 0/1/5/6/10. That means roughly twice the storage (~128 TB vs ~64 TB) AND protection against drive failures. Choose this when retention, redundancy or compliance-grade storage matters. The 5432-16P is the cheaper option when 4 drives without RAID are enough.
Should I run RAID 5, RAID 6 or RAID 10?
RAID 5 (single-disk redundancy) gives ~112 TB usable across 8 × 16 TB drives — the typical default for surveillance. RAID 6 (dual-disk redundancy) gives ~96 TB usable but survives two simultaneous failures — recommended for critical sites. RAID 10 (mirror-of-stripes) gives ~64 TB usable but extremely fast playback — useful when the NVR drives the control-room wall directly.
Does this NVR really support AcuPick?
Yes. Dahua's V5 firmware (binary DH_NVR5XXX-EI_MultiLang_V5.001.0000000.0.R.251220 or later) enables AcuPick on the AI/ANZ unit alongside N+M cluster, iSCSI and ONVIF 23.12. The firmware is published on Dahua AU's official product page for this model and ships from CCTV Guru with V5 installed.
Why does AcuPick only run on 16 channels when the NVR supports 32?
AcuPick is heavy on AI-chip resources — running attribute extraction and image-search against 32 channels simultaneously isn't possible on the current 5-Series silicon. You choose which 16 of the 32 channels run AcuPick (the rest still record, and still get ANPR / SMD Plus / perimeter via camera-side AI).
How does the 16 PoE work with the 32-channel licence?
The first 16 cameras plug straight into the back of the recorder, drawing power from the built-in 150 W PoE budget. The remaining 16 channels come in via the single gigabit network uplink to your managed switch — they need their own PoE source (a managed PoE switch is the cleanest option). The licence covers all 32; the chassis powers half.
Is the DHI-NVR5832-16P-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
How much storage do I need for 32 cameras at 90 days retention?
For 32 × 4 MP cameras at H.265+ on motion-record, expect ~50–60 TB for 90 days. Eight 8 TB or 10 TB surveillance-grade drives (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) in RAID 5 gives ~56–70 TB usable — exactly the right size with single-disk redundancy.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 2U / 440 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 6.9 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~13–15 kg fully loaded with eight drives.

WizMind · 6-Series Flagship · 32-Channel · 8-HDD · 2U
The Dahua DHI-NVR608H-32-AI/ANZ is a 32-channel WizMind enterprise AI NVR — Dahua's flagship 6-Series recorder with industrial-grade deep-learning, 1024 Mbps recording bandwidth, eight SATA bays with RAID 0/1/5/6/10 and HDD hot-swap, dual 2.5 Gigabit NICs, and four HDMI outputs including 8K display. The face database alone is 15× larger than the 5-Series — 40 databases, 300,000 images, 48 GB capacity — and NVR-side AI runs face recognition on 20 channels, perimeter protection on 24 channels and SMD Plus on all 32.
This is the official Australia / NZ-market SKU (the AI/ANZ suffix). It's a headend NVR with no built-in PoE — cameras connect through an external PoE switch or your existing managed network. Internal 100–240 VAC universal PSU, AS/NZS-compliant kettle cord, and a local 5-year warranty backed by CCTV Guru in Sydney (two years longer than the WizSense 5-Series). Built for casinos, banks, large transport hubs, hospitals, government facilities and any deployment where the 5-Series ceiling isn't enough.
WizMind 6-Series — enterprise-grade deep-learning
AI Tier

Face Database
40 DBs · 300,000 images · 48 GB
Face Recognition at scale
20 channels of camera-side face detection feeding NVR-side recognition at 20 face snapshots/sec, or 4 channels of full FD+FR by the recorder at 12 fps. Forty databases hold up to 300,000 face images — large enough for staff registers, watchlists and visitor logs combined.
Perimeter Protection (24 ch by NVR)
24 NVR-side channels of tripwire and intrusion analytics (10 IVS rules each) — six times the 5-Series capacity. Plus all-channel perimeter via camera-side processing — every camera benefits from human/vehicle classification.
SMD Plus on all 32 channels by NVR
The NVR runs Smart Motion Detection Plus across every single channel simultaneously — no AI / non-AI channel split. Deep-learning second-pass classification on the entire site at once.
Video Metadata by NVR (8 channels)
NVR-side metadata extraction — top colour, bottom colour, hat, bag, umbrella, gender, age, vehicle make / model / colour / plate, helmet wear. The 5-Series only does metadata camera-side; the 6-Series adds NVR-side processing.
AcuPick on all 32 channels
Run AcuPick image-and-attribute search across every connected camera simultaneously — no 16-channel cap like the 5-Series. Pair with Dahua's AcuPick-ready WizMind / TiOC IPCs for full front-and-back search depth.
ANPR by camera (32 channels)
Pair with Dahua ANPR cameras for full 32-channel licence-plate recognition feeding a 20,000-plate database with blocklist / allowlist control. Carpark, fleet yard, toll-point and multi-site ANPR.

Storage
8 SATA · RAID 0/1/5/6/10 · hot-swap
1024 Mbps recording bandwidth
2.7× the 5-Series ceiling. Comfortable for 32 cameras at 16 MP each on H.265+, or a mix of 32 MP and 4 MP feeds. AI-enabled bandwidth is still 512 Mbps — more than most 5-Series NVRs deliver flat-out.
32 MP at 30 fps decoding
The decoder handles 32 MP cameras at full 30 fps (vs 20 fps on 5-Series). For 4K cameras, decode 8 channels at 30 fps simultaneously; for 1080p, decode all 32 channels at once.
4× HDMI + 2× VGA outputs
Drive up to six independent displays. HDMI3 supports 8K display; HDMI1 / HDMI2 deliver 4K each. Configure heterogeneous or simultaneous output for control rooms with multi-monitor walls.
8 SATA bays · drawer hot-swap
Eight surveillance-grade HDDs (WD Purple Pro, Seagate SkyHawk AI) up to 16 TB each in a drawer-style chassis — swap drives during operation without bringing the recorder down. Total ~128 TB on-board.
Hardware RAID 0/1/5/6/10
Survive single-drive (RAID 5) or dual-drive (RAID 6) failures with zero footage loss. RAID 10 for performance + redundancy. Rebuilds run in the background while recording continues.
eSATA + iSCSI + ESS1504C expansion
External SATA archive port, iSCSI network storage, plus optional Dahua ESS1504C 4-HDD eSATA storage tray — easy capacity expansion beyond the 8 on-board bays.

RS-232 + RS-485
One RS-232 plus one RS-485 (A/B) — integrate with POS systems, gate controllers, access control panels, PTZ joysticks or third-party VMS that need legacy serial.
N+M cluster failover
Pair multiple 6-Series NVRs in an N+M cluster — backup recorders automatically take over if a primary fails, ensuring zero footage loss for compliance-driven sites.
ONVIF (T / S / G) + DSS Pro
Full ONVIF profile support plus Dahua's DSS Pro VMS for multi-site centralised control. Native integration with Sony, Axis, Pelco, Arecont, Canon, Samsung and any ONVIF-compliant camera.
NVR608H-32 vs the family — how it compares
The 6-Series WizMind is a different tier from the 5-Series WizSense — enterprise-grade silicon, much larger face database, NVR-side metadata, 8K HDMI output, 2.5 GbE NICs and dramatically more bandwidth. Choose this when the 5-Series ceiling isn't enough. For sites running fewer than 32 cameras, the 5-Series WizSense range (5208 through 5864) gives you AcuPick at a lower cost-per-channel.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between WizMind and WizSense?
WizMind is Dahua's top-tier AI line — it uses an industrial-grade processor with built-in deep-learning modules and is aimed at enterprise, government, banking, healthcare and large-site deployments. WizSense is the SMB/commercial tier with a dedicated AI chip — capable but with smaller face databases, fewer NVR-side AI channels and lower bandwidth. The 6-Series WizMind has ~15× the face database capacity, 6× the NVR-side perimeter channels, 4× the SMD Plus channels, and 2.7× the bandwidth of the 5-Series WizSense flagship.
Why doesn't it have built-in PoE?
The 6-Series is purpose-built for enterprise headend deployments where cameras come in through a managed PoE switch (or stack of switches). The chassis priorities are storage capacity (8 HDDs with RAID and hot-swap), AI horsepower, video output count (4× HDMI) and uplink speed (2× 2.5 GbE) — not direct PoE delivery. Pair this NVR with a 24 or 48-port managed PoE+ switch.
What does the 2.5 GbE network port mean for me?
Each Ethernet port runs at 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps — 2.5× faster than the gigabit NICs on the 5-Series. Useful when the NVR is doing both heavy AI processing AND streaming to multiple clients, or when you want one cable between NVR and switch instead of bonded gigabit links. Most modern managed switches now support 2.5 GbE uplinks.
What's the practical advantage of NVR-side video metadata?
On the 5-Series WizSense range, metadata extraction happens at the camera — if you pair a non-Dahua camera, metadata search is disabled. The 6-Series WizMind runs metadata extraction at the recorder on 8 channels, so search-by-attribute (top colour, age, vehicle plate, etc.) works regardless of which camera generated the feed. Important when you've inherited a mixed-brand camera estate.
Does the 8K HDMI mean I can run an 8K monitor?
Yes — HDMI3 supports 8K (7680 × 4320) output for one display. HDMI1 and HDMI2 each support 4K (3840 × 2160). HDMI4 and the two VGAs are 1080p. Configure heterogeneous mode for independent layouts across all six display heads, or simultaneous mode to mirror outputs across paired HDMI+VGA.
Should I run RAID 5, RAID 6 or RAID 10?
RAID 5 (single-disk redundancy) gives ~112 TB usable across 8 × 16 TB drives — the typical default for surveillance. RAID 6 (dual-disk redundancy) gives ~96 TB usable but survives two simultaneous failures — recommended for compliance-critical sites. RAID 10 (mirror-of-stripes) gives ~64 TB usable but extremely fast playback — useful when the NVR drives the control-room wall directly.
Is the DHI-NVR608H-32-AI/ANZ NDAA Section 889 compliant?
No. Dahua products are not currently NDAA Section 889 compliant. If NDAA compliance is required (federal, government or defence installs), choose a Uniview, Hanwha, Axis, Bosch or IDIS NVR instead — CCTV Guru can recommend an equivalent.
Does the WizMind series get a longer warranty?
Yes — WizMind 6-Series enterprise NVRs ship with a 5-year warranty in Australia, two years longer than the 3-year warranty on Dahua's WizSense (4-Series and 5-Series) products. The longer cover reflects the project-grade build and is part of why WizMind units carry a premium over WizSense. Backed locally by CCTV Guru in Sydney with replacement stock on hand.
Can it be rack-mounted?
Yes — 2U / 444 mm wide fits a standard 19-inch rack with ears (rack ears sold separately). At 6.4 kg empty (without HDDs), plan for ~13–15 kg fully loaded with eight drives. The drawer-style HDD bays support hot-swapping, so you can replace failed drives without unmounting the chassis from the rack.
