The Dahua HDW3849H-AS-PV-S4 is a high-performance 8MP 4K IP network camera engineered for professional-grade surveillance. Equipped with a 3.6mm fixed lens, this camera delivers exceptionally clear, high-resolution video monitoring suitable for a wide range of environments. Its robust metal construction and IP67 protection rating ensure reliable operation in both indoor and outdoor settings, making it a versatile choice for comprehensive security systems.
Advantages
This camera features advanced AI-powered technologies, including perimeter protection and SMD 4.0, which significantly reduce false alarms by accurately classifying human and vehicle targets. The integration of AI SSA allows the camera to automatically adjust image parameters based on environmental conditions, ensuring optimal video quality at all times. With built-in dual microphones and a speaker, it supports two-way audio communication and active deterrence. The inclusion of both IR and warm light illuminators provides clear visibility up to 30 meters, even in complete darkness.
Suitable for
- Professional perimeter security for commercial buildings
- Monitoring residential properties and entry points
- Public area surveillance requiring high-resolution identification
- Integration into existing NVR-based security networks
This camera may not be suitable for environments requiring optical zoom capabilities, as it features a fixed 3.6mm lens. Additionally, while it is highly versatile, users needing specialized long-range license plate recognition or thermal imaging for extreme industrial processes should consider dedicated hardware for those specific applications.
Key specifications

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician to ensure proper network configuration and physical mounting. The camera supports PoE, which simplifies cabling by allowing power and data transmission over a single Ethernet cable. Once mounted, use the web interface or compatible management software to configure motion detection zones, privacy masks, and recording schedules to suit your specific security requirements.
What to consider before purchase
- Ensure your network infrastructure supports PoE or that a 12VDC power supply is available.
- Verify that your recording device (NVR) is compatible with the camera's resolution and AI features.
- Check the mounting location to ensure the 3.6mm field of view covers the desired area.
- Confirm that the local network bandwidth is sufficient for 4K streaming.
For optimal performance, keep the camera firmware updated to the latest version and ensure the lens is cleaned periodically with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to maintain image clarity.
