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.
Smart Features for Real-World Australian Sites
Dahua TiOC 3 & PRO Webinar 2024 — Official English Walkthrough
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.
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.
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 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.

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.
