Dahua DH-HAC-HDBW2501EP 5MP Starlight HDCVI Dome Camera
The Dahua DH-HAC-HDBW2501EP is a 5MP Starlight HDCVI vandal dome built for discreet, tamper-resistant coverage. A 2.8mm fixed lens gives a wide view, the Starlight sensor holds detail in low light, Smart IR reaches up to 30m at night, and 120dB true WDR balances harsh contrast. The IK10 metal housing and IP67 rating resist impact and weather. As an HDCVI camera it connects to a Dahua XVR (Penta-brid DVR) over coax — not an IP NVR.
