The DAHUA IPC-HDW2249TM-S-IL-0280B White is a compact 1080p IP camera with a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor, fixed 2.8 mm F1.6 lens and progressive scan for clear video capture. It supports H.265/H.264 compression, dual streams, built-in microphone and PoE (802.3af) power for simplified installation. The camera offers up to 30 m night illumination using IR or warm light, IP67 weather resistance and a robust metal housing for indoor or outdoor monitoring.

Advantages

This camera delivers full HD (1920 × 1080) video with smart H.265+/H.264+ codec options to reduce bandwidth and storage usage. It features wide 107° horizontal field of view from the 2.8 mm lens, excellent low-light sensitivity (0.002 Lux color, 0.0002 Lux B/W) and built-in IR/warm light up to 30 m for reliable 24/7 surveillance. Intelligent functions include perimeter protection (intrusion and tripwire) and smart search integration with compatible NVRs. The unit is PoE-capable, supports microSD storage up to 256 GB and meets IP67 for outdoor durability.

Suitable for

• Small to medium outdoor and indoor surveillance of entrances, parking areas and building perimeters

How to use

Mount the camera using appropriate fittings for the chosen indoor or outdoor location, ensuring the lens has an unobstructed view. Connect to a 12 VDC power supply or to a PoE-enabled switch for both power and network. Use the camera web interface, Dahua management software (DSS/DMSS) or an ONVIF-compatible NVR to configure video settings, motion detection, ROI and privacy masks. Insert a supported microSD card (max. 256 GB) or configure remote storage (FTP/SFTP) for local recording. Adjust day/night, illuminator and WDR settings to match lighting conditions.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, install the camera at a height and angle that provide the desired DORI coverage (detect up to ~43.9 m, recognize up to ~8.8 m, identify up to ~4.4 m with the 2.8 mm lens). Use PoE for simpler wiring, enable Smart H.265+ to reduce storage needs, and regularly check firmware and security settings to maintain network protection.
