The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW5442TP-AS-LED-0280B is the WizMind 5 Pro AI 4 MP full-colour warm-LED fixed bullet — the LED version of the HFW5442TP-ASE platform. Built around a 1/1.8" Starlight+ CMOS capturing 2688 × 1520 at 25/30 fps with Smart H.265+ encoding. The 2.8 mm fixed lens delivers a wide 102° field; built-in warm white LEDs reach up to 20 m for true 24/7 full-colour night vision (no black-and-white IR mode required); WDR is 140 dB; the metal bullet housing is IP67 sealed across −30 °C to +60 °C. WizMind 5 deep-learning Pro AI runs face recognition with database, full perimeter protection, people counting, heat map, stereo analysis, vehicle metadata and SMD Plus. Built for Australian project-grade installs where colour identification at night matters — shopfront entries, retail loading docks, council facilities, restaurant strips and high-detail forensic positions where the suspect's clothing colour is the difference between a positive ID and an unsolved case. Backed by a 5-year Australian warranty through CCTV Guru. SKU 5442 series.
Why Choose the Dahua HFW5442TP-AS-LED WizMind 5 Full-Colour Bullet
Full-Colour Night Vision — Warm LED
Built-in warm white LEDs replace IR for 24/7 colour video. See suspect clothing colour, vehicle paint and licence-plate colours at night — not the black-and-white blur traditional IR cameras give you.
1/1.8" Starlight+ Sensor
Physically larger sensor with roughly twice the light-gathering area of WizSense's 1/2.7". Combined with warm LEDs, this is one of the best-performing colour-at-night cameras in its price band.
WizMind 5 Full Pro AI
Face recognition with database, perimeter protection, people counting, heat map, stereo analysis, vehicle metadata, SMD Plus.
140 dB True WDR
Holds detail in both bright sky and dark interior in a single frame — critical for awning-shaded entries and harsh Australian sun.
20 m Warm LED Range
Built-in warm LED array reaches up to 20 m — ideal for shopfronts, entries, courtyards, loading docks and forensic-detail positions.
Forensic-Detail Bullet for Identification
The colour-at-night capability turns this from a deterrent camera into an identification camera — clothing colour and vehicle paint are recorded, not lost.
Important Install Note
The warm LED is brighter than infrared and will illuminate the area around the camera (similar to a security light). Plan mounting position with neighbours and tenant lighting policies in mind — the warm LED activates automatically in low light. The LED operates in a warm-white tone (around 3000 K) to look more natural to the human eye than cool-white security LEDs.
AI & Smart Detection Capabilities
Face Recognition (Database)
On-camera face database with up to 10,000 face entries. The full-colour image dramatically improves face-recognition accuracy at night.
Perimeter Protection (IVS)
Tripwire and intrusion zones with human and vehicle classification.
People Counting + Heat Map
Statistics for entry/exit counts, queue length and dwell-time heat maps.
SMD Plus Smart Motion
Motion alerts triggered only by humans and vehicles.
Vehicle Metadata Capture
Vehicle classification with attribute capture — type, colour and direction.
Stereo Analysis
Stereo-vision behaviour analysis — fall, fight, person stationary detection.

How It Compares — Warm LED vs IR Sibling
The IR sibling is the Dahua DH-IPC-HFW5442TP-ASE-0280B. Choose the warm-LED variant (this product) for colour-at-night identification scenes — shopfronts, entries, retail. Choose the IR sibling for long-range night surveillance where lighting up the scene is not appropriate.
