WizMind 5 · 4 MP · Fixed 2.8 mm · ePoE 800 mDahua WizMind 5 · 4 MP Pro AI BulletDahua DH-IPC-HFW5442TP-ASE-0280B — 4 MP Pro AI Fixed-Focal Starlight+ IR Bullet WizMind 5 Network Camera (2.8 mm)
The Dahua DH-IPC-HFW5442TP-ASE-0280B is the WizMind 5 Pro AI 4 MP fixed-focal bullet — built around a 1/1.8" Starlight+ CMOS sensor (physically larger and roughly twice the light-gathering area of WizSense's 1/2.7") capturing 2688 × 1520 at 25/30 fps and 1080p at full 50/60 fps. The 2.8 mm fixed lens delivers a wide 102° field of view; built-in IR reaches up to 50 m for long-range night surveillance; WDR is 140 dB; the metal bullet housing is IP67 sealed across −40 °C to +60 °C. WizMind 5 deep-learning Pro AI runs the full feature suite — face recognition with on-camera database, perimeter protection, people counting, heat map, stereo analysis, vehicle metadata and SMD Plus. ePoE extends PoE to 800 m on Cat6. Built for project-grade Australian outdoor installs — commercial frontages, depot perimeters, freight yards, council CCTV and transport corridors. Backed by a 5-year Australian warranty through CCTV Guru. SKU 5442 series.
Why Choose the Dahua HFW5442TP-ASE WizMind 5 Pro AI Fixed Bullet
1/1.8" Starlight+ Sensor
Physically larger sensor with roughly twice the light-gathering area of WizSense's 1/2.7". Usable colour video in moonlight conditions.
WizMind 5 Full Pro AI
Face recognition with on-camera database, perimeter protection, people counting, heat map, stereo analysis, vehicle metadata.
ePoE — 800 m PoE Distance
Extends data + power to 800 m on Cat6 (vs the standard 100 m limit) — long perimeter runs without an edge network closet.
140 dB True WDR
Holds detail in both bright sky and dark interior in a single frame — critical for harsh Australian sun.
50 m IR + Alpine Build
Built-in IR array reaches up to 50 m. Metal IP67 housing rated −40 °C to +60 °C.
Predictable Fixed Framing
2.8 mm fixed lens (102° field of view) — predictable install framing at lower cost than the motorised HFW5442EP-ZE sibling.
Important Install Note
This camera is fixed-focal (2.8 mm) — frame at install time. To use ePoE's 800 m range, pair with a Dahua ePoE switch or NVR with ePoE ports. For coastal or humid Australian installs, pair with a Dahua water-proof junction box to protect the RJ-45 termination.
AI & Smart Detection Capabilities
Face Recognition (Database)
On-camera face database with up to 10,000 face entries. Real-time recognition with similarity scoring and DMSS alarm push.
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. Filters out branches, animals, shadows.
Stereo Analysis
Stereo-vision behaviour analysis — fall, fight, person stationary detection.
Vehicle Metadata Capture
Vehicle classification with attribute capture — type, colour, direction.
