LightHunter Technology — True Colour in Darkness
Most cameras switch to black-and-white the moment light levels drop. The IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 is different. Its LightHunter sensor (1/2.8" CMOS) combined with an ultra-fast F1.6 aperture captures enough light at just 0.0025 Lux to produce vivid, full-colour images throughout the night — capturing clothing colours, vehicle colours, and skin tones that are critical for incident investigation and prosecution.
0.0025 Lux Minimum Illumination
Captures usable colour footage in conditions that render standard cameras completely blind — moonlit car parks, dimly lit driveways, and shadowed building perimeters.
120 dB True WDR
Simultaneously exposes both the blinding glare of a vehicle's headlights and the shadow behind them — ideal for entrance gates, carparks and loading docks.
50 m Smart IR
When there is genuinely zero ambient light, the adaptive Smart IR automatically adjusts intensity to prevent overexposure at close range while maintaining reach at distance.
AI-Powered Smart Intrusion Prevention
Traditional motion detection sends false alerts every time a tree branch moves, a cat walks past or a car headlight sweeps across the frame. The IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 uses an on-camera deep-learning engine that classifies moving objects into humans, vehicles, and non-motor vehicles in real time, then filters out everything else before the alert is ever triggered. The result is a dramatically lower false-alarm rate and an alert you can actually trust.
Cross Line Detection
Define a virtual tripwire across any part of the scene. Trigger an alert only when a human or vehicle crosses it in the direction you specify.
Intrusion Detection
Draw a polygon zone anywhere in the frame. Receive alerts only when a classified target enters and remains within that zone for a set duration.
Enter / Leave Area Detection
Separately trigger on targets entering or exiting a restricted zone — perfect for after-hours monitoring of yards, warehouses and plant rooms.
People Counting & Crowd Density
Track the flow of foot traffic and receive alerts when occupancy thresholds are exceeded — useful for retail analytics, queue management and safety compliance.
Ultra Motion Detection (UMD)
A secondary motion engine that works alongside AI classification to catch rapid movement events with exceptional speed and accuracy.
Tamper & Audio Detection
Receive instant alerts if the camera is obscured, repositioned, or if a loud event like breaking glass or raised voices is detected.
2.8–12 mm Motorised Varifocal Lens
The motorised zoom lens is one of the IPC2328SB-DZK-I0's most practical advantages for installers and end-users alike. Rather than needing to manually loosen, adjust and re-tighten a lens barrel at height, the zoom and focus can be controlled remotely via the web interface or your VMS. The 107.4° wide-angle at 2.8 mm covers full-room or wide-entrance scenes, while zooming to 12 mm narrows the field to 29.2° for detailed identification at range.
Horizontal FOV: 107.4° → 29.2°
Flexible coverage from wide-area monitoring to a focused corridor or entry point — all from a single camera model.
DORI Identify Range: 8.7–37.2 m
At the widest setting, positively identify faces at up to 8.7 m. At full zoom, that extends to 37.2 m — covering medium-distance gate and perimeter scenarios.
Detect Range: up to 372.4 m
At 12 mm, movement can be detected at over 370 m, making this camera viable for large open areas like industrial yards and rural properties.
Built for Australian Conditions
Mounted on a coastal property, a mine site or an inner-city car park, the IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 is engineered to endure. Its full-metal housing carries IP67 weather resistance (total dust ingress protection, submersion-proof to 1 m) and IK10 vandal resistance — the highest impact rating, able to withstand a 20-joule strike. A built-in 6 kV surge protector guards the electronics against lightning and power spikes — especially important in Queensland and other high-lightning-strike regions.
IP67 Weatherproof
Total protection against dust and sustained water exposure. Suitable for exposed outdoor installations including coastal environments.
IK10 Impact Rated
The highest standardised impact protection level. Resists deliberate tampering and accidental strikes from tools or debris.
–30°C to +60°C Operating Range
Works in the coldest alpine locations and the hottest Australian summer conditions without performance degradation.
Ultra 265 Compression & Flexible Storage
Uniview's proprietary Ultra 265 codec reduces bandwidth and storage requirements by up to 90% compared with H.264 while maintaining equivalent image quality — dramatically extending how far back your recordings go on a given hard drive. The camera supports triple simultaneous streams , so your 4K main stream goes to the NVR, a reduced-bitrate stream serves remote mobile viewing, and a third stream feeds analytics or a VMS platform. On-camera edge storage via MicroSD up to 512 GB provides backup recording if the network goes down.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this camera work with my existing Uniview NVR?
Yes. The IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 is fully compatible with all current Uniview NVRs (Prime and Pro series) and with any ONVIF Profile S/T/G/M-compliant recorder, including Hikvision, Dahua and Axis NVRs.
Can I zoom and focus the lens remotely after installation?
Yes — that is one of the key advantages of the motorised varifocal lens. Once mounted, zoom and autofocus are adjusted via the web interface or VMS without needing to physically access the camera body.
What is the difference between LightHunter and standard IR cameras?
Standard cameras switch to black-and-white when light drops below roughly 0.1–1.0 Lux. LightHunter cameras like the IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 maintain full colour at 0.0025 Lux thanks to the large-aperture F1.6 lens and a high-sensitivity CMOS sensor — meaning clothing colour and vehicle colour are visible all night.
How does Smart Intrusion Prevention reduce false alarms?
The camera's on-board deep learning engine analyses every detected object and classifies it as a human, vehicle, non-motor vehicle, or "other" before sending any alert. Tree branches, animals, rain and passing headlights all fall into "other" and are silently ignored — only verified human or vehicle activity triggers your alarm.
Does the IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 support PoE?
Yes. It supports IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet — a single Cat6 cable provides both data and power, simplifying installation and reducing cabling costs. DC 12V is also supported via the coaxial power plug.
What codec should I use to save storage space?
Use Ultra 265 — Uniview's proprietary codec that delivers the same image quality as H.265 but with up to 50% less bandwidth and storage consumption. This extends your recording retention significantly on any given NVR hard drive size.
Is the camera suitable for coastal or high-humidity environments?
Yes. IP67 certification guarantees complete protection against dust ingress and sustained water exposure. The operating humidity range of ≤95% RH (non-condensing) and the metal housing make it well-suited to coastal Australian conditions.
What software can I use to manage this camera?
The IPC2328SB-DZK-I0 is compatible with Uniview's EZStation (PC), EZAccess, and UniEase mobile apps. It also integrates with any ONVIF-compatible VMS such as Milestone, Genetec, iSpy and many others.
