Dahua DH-IPC-PDW3849-A180-AS-PV-ANZ 8MP 180° Panoramic TiOC Duo IP Camera

The Dahua DH-IPC-PDW3849-A180-AS-PV-ANZ is an advanced 8MP 180° panoramic network camera designed to provide wide-area surveillance from a single installation point. Featuring dual 1/2.7" CMOS sensors, the camera combines two image streams into a wide 180° panoramic view, making it an excellent choice for monitoring entrances, driveways, retail areas, building perimeters and other locations where broad coverage is required.

With a maximum output of 4096 × 1860 at 20 fps, the camera delivers detailed panoramic video while reducing the need for multiple conventional cameras. Its 2.8mm fixed-focal lenses, 180° horizontal field of view and intelligent EPTZ functionality allow operators to digitally enlarge and track targets associated with intelligent alarm events.

The camera also features Smart Dual Light illumination, combining IR and warm light for dependable night-time monitoring. IR illumination reaches up to 25 metres, while warm light provides illumination up to 20 metres. This allows the camera to maintain visibility in low-light environments while supporting more effective colour-based monitoring when required.

For intelligent surveillance, the camera incorporates SMD 4.0, human and vehicle classification through perimeter protection, and EPTZ target tracking. These features help security operators focus on relevant events rather than manually reviewing large amounts of footage.

The TiOC active deterrence system adds another layer of security through a built-in speaker and red/blue warning lights. When connected to compatible alarm functions, the camera can provide visual and audible deterrence while also supporting two-way audio through its built-in dual microphones.

With 120 dB WDR, 3D noise reduction, BLC, HLC, Defog and Scene Self-Adaptation, the DH-IPC-PDW3849-A180-AS-PV-ANZ is designed to maintain image quality across challenging lighting conditions. PoE support and IP67 protection also make installation practical for a wide range of indoor and outdoor surveillance applications.

180° Panoramic Coverage

The dual-sensor design allows the camera to produce a 180° panoramic image, providing significantly wider coverage than a conventional single-lens turret camera. This makes it particularly useful where a large viewing area needs to be monitored from one mounting position.

The panoramic design can help reduce blind spots while potentially reducing the number of cameras required for wide-area surveillance.

Dual-Sensor 8MP Imaging

The camera uses dual 1/2.7" CMOS sensors and provides a maximum resolution of 4096 × 1860. Progressive scanning, 3D noise reduction and 120 dB WDR help maintain useful video detail across different lighting conditions.

The camera also supports multiple resolution options and three video streams, allowing the surveillance system to balance image quality, bandwidth and storage requirements.

Smart Dual Light Night Surveillance

The camera combines IR LEDs and warm light illumination to provide additional lighting in dark environments.

• IR illumination: Up to 25 metres

• Warm light: Up to 20 metres

• Illuminator control: Auto / Manual

This gives installers flexibility when configuring the camera for different night-time surveillance requirements.

Intelligent Detection with SMD 4.0

SMD 4.0 helps identify relevant human and vehicle activity while reducing unnecessary motion events. The camera also supports intelligent perimeter functions including intrusion and tripwire detection, with classification of people and vehicles.

Additional intelligent functions include:

• Stay detection

• Loitering detection

• Intrusion detection

• Tripwire detection

• Human and vehicle classification

• SMD 4.0

• Quick Pick with compatible AI NVR

• Smart Search

EPTZ Target Tracking

The built-in EPTZ function allows operators to digitally enlarge and track targets associated with intelligent alarm events. This provides an additional level of situational awareness without requiring a traditional PTZ camera.

EPTZ is particularly useful when monitoring wide panoramic scenes where an operator needs to examine a specific person or vehicle.

Active Deterrence with Sound and Light

The camera incorporates active deterrence features designed to help respond to suspicious activity. The built-in speaker and red/blue warning lights can provide an audible and visual warning when configured with supported alarm events.

The built-in dual microphones and speaker also support two-way audio, allowing communication through compatible surveillance software.

Advanced Image Processing

The DH-IPC-PDW3849-A180-AS-PV-ANZ includes a range of image enhancement functions for different surveillance environments:

• 120 dB WDR

• 3D NR

• BLC

• HLC

• Defog

• Scene Self-Adaptation (SSA)

• ROI

• Digital watermarking

• Automatic day/night switching

• Smart illumination

These features help maintain usable surveillance footage in changing lighting and environmental conditions.

Flexible Storage and Network Connectivity

The camera supports Micro SD card storage up to 512 GB, along with FTP, SFTP and NAS storage options.

Network connectivity is provided through an RJ-45 10/100 Base-T port, with support for ONVIF and CGI integration. The camera can also be managed through Dahua software including SmartPSS Lite, DSS and DMSS.

PoE Installation

With support for PoE (802.3af) as well as 12V DC power, the camera can be installed using a compatible PoE network infrastructure. PoE allows network connectivity and power to be delivered through a single Ethernet cable, helping simplify installation.

IP67 Outdoor Protection

The metal camera housing is rated IP67, providing protection against dust and water ingress. Combined with its operating temperature range of –40 °C to +60 °C, the camera is suitable for a variety of demanding surveillance environments.
