Product SKU: DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2
Product Overview
Built for eave, soffit, and wall mounting across residential and commercial sites, the IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 brings Dahua’s TiOC Advanced 3.0 platform to 8MP resolution in a compact turret housing. Unlike standard IP cameras that record and notify, this unit acts on detection: Smart Motion Detection 4.0 classifies incoming human or vehicle targets with a false alarm rate under 2%, and the moment a confirmed target enters a protected zone, a red-and-blue strobe and 110dB speaker activate automatically. Dual infrared and white-light illuminators work together so that continuous overnight monitoring runs on IR, switching to white light only when a detection event is confirmed, producing vivid full-colour footage precisely when it matters. A 2.8mm fixed lens covers wide entry zones from driveways and courtyard gates to shopfront entries. Onboard MicroSD storage up to 256GB enables standalone recording, while AcuPick attribute-based forensic search is unlocked when a compatible Dahua 5 Series NVR is connected.


Key Capabilities
TiOC Advanced 3.0: Three Functions in One Housing
Full-colour 24/7 imaging, SMD 4.0 AI classification, and active sound-and-light deterrence are unified into a single turret unit. Sites that would otherwise require separate siren hardware, floodlights, and a camera at each position can consolidate all 3 into 1 eave-mounted device.
Event-Driven Dual Illuminators
Infrared runs continuously in the background for discreet overnight monitoring. When SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle target, the white-light illuminator activates automatically, shifting the scene into full colour at the exact moment the event occurs rather than maintaining a constant visible light that attracts attention or disturbs occupants.
Smart Motion Detection 4.0
The onboard AI engine distinguishes human and vehicle movement from animals, wind-blown foliage, and passing vehicle headlights, achieving a confirmed false alarm rate under 2%. Deterrence responses and push notifications fire only on genuine human or vehicle targets, keeping alerts meaningful rather than constant.
110dB Active Deterrence with Two-Way Audio
A built-in red-and-blue strobe and 110dB speaker trigger the instant a detection event is confirmed in a protected zone. The integrated microphone also allows operators or property owners to speak directly through the camera in real time, enabling live verbal challenges without any additional hardware.
AcuPick Attribute-Based Forensic Search
When connected to a compatible Dahua 5 Series NVR, AcuPick enables post-incident footage filtering by attributes such as vehicle colour, cutting investigation time from hours of manual scrubbing to a targeted clip search. All other camera functions operate normally without a 5 Series NVR in place.
Onboard MicroSD Storage up to 256GB
The integrated MicroSD slot supports cards up to 256GB for continuous or event-triggered local recording with no NVR required. This makes the camera deployable as a standalone unit at single-point locations and also provides a local redundancy layer in networked installations if recorder connectivity is interrupted.
Best For
- Residential Driveways and Entry Gates: The 2.8mm wide-angle lens covers full driveway width from an eave or soffit position, with active strobe and speaker deterrence triggering the moment a person or vehicle enters the defined detection zone.
- Small Commercial Premises After Hours: Shopfronts, small yards, and storage areas benefit from a 110dB on-site alarm response combined with full-colour Starlight imaging, without requiring a separately installed alarm siren at each camera point.
- Unlit or Poorly Lit Outdoor Zones: The white-light illuminator activates automatically on confirmed detections, delivering vivid colour footage in complete darkness without needing external floodlights mounted separately at the camera position.
- Remote and Low-Connectivity Sites: MicroSD storage up to 256GB enables continuous local recording at rural properties, construction sites, or any location where reliable NVR network connectivity cannot be guaranteed around the clock.
- Properties Needing Remote Audio Intervention: The built-in microphone and speaker allow property owners or monitoring centres to issue live verbal challenges through the camera, enabling a two-way response without requiring an operator to be on site.
Why Choose the IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2
Standard 8MP turret cameras at a comparable price point capture footage and generate alerts. The IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 goes further by acting on detections in real time. The TiOC Advanced 3.0 platform consolidates what would otherwise be 3 separate devices: a camera, a siren, and a floodlight. The dual illuminator system is designed to conserve IR for discreet continuous monitoring while switching to white light only when SMD 4.0 confirms a genuine target, ensuring colour footage is captured precisely at the moment of an event rather than continuously draining the white-light source. The false alarm rate under 2% means the strobe and 110dB speaker response fires when warranted. AcuPick adds post-incident investigation capability when a compatible 5 Series NVR is in place. Available through Security Wholesalers with Australian documentation and support, this model suits any site where deterrence needs to be immediate, on-site, and AI-verified rather than reliant on a remote monitoring centre response after the fact.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: The 2.8mm fixed lens is optimised for wide close-range coverage. It captures full driveway width, courtyard areas, and shopfront entries well from eave or soffit mounting height. For sites where the camera position is set back further than approximately 10 to 15 metres from the point of interest, or where plate or facial detail at distance is a priority, a model with a varifocal or longer fixed lens will deliver better subject clarity at that range.
Buyer Tip: AcuPick attribute-based search, including vehicle colour filtering, is only available when this camera is paired with a compatible Dahua 5 Series NVR. If you are adding the IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 to an existing recorder that is not 5 Series compatible, all detection, deterrence, recording, and two-way audio functions work normally. AcuPick becomes accessible only once a compatible 5 Series NVR is connected.

Ideal Use Cases
Driveway and Gate Entry Monitoring
Mounted at eave height, the 2.8mm wide-angle lens captures the full width of a standard driveway or gate approach. When SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle target, white light activates for colour footage and the strobe and speaker trigger simultaneously, creating a deterrence response before an intruder advances toward the structure.
Retail and Hospitality Shopfronts
After-hours coverage with a 110dB on-site deterrence response and full-colour Starlight imaging supports both evidence capture and active alarm behaviour at commercial premises, without requiring a separately installed monitored alarm device at each camera location.
Outdoor Car Parks and Shared Yards
Vehicle classification via SMD 4.0 allows intrusion zone rules to trigger only on confirmed human or vehicle detections. This reduces nuisance alerts in environments with regular traffic during operating hours, keeping deterrence responses focused on out-of-hours events.
Remote and Off-Grid Sites
With MicroSD storage supporting up to 256GB of local recording, the camera operates as a fully self-contained unit at rural properties, construction sites, or any location where continuous NVR connectivity cannot be relied upon across all hours.
Strata and Multi-Tenancy Entry Points
Two-way audio via the integrated microphone and 110dB speaker allows building managers or remote monitoring teams to communicate directly through the camera when an unauthorised access event is detected at a gate, basement entry, or shared lobby position.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: Your site requires 8MP full-colour night surveillance combined with integrated active deterrence, including a red-and-blue strobe, 110dB speaker, two-way audio, AI human and vehicle classification with under 2% false alarms, and local MicroSD backup, all in a single IP67-rated turret housing suited to eave or soffit mounting.
- Choose a different model if: Your installation needs to identify individuals or read number plates at distances beyond close range. A turret or bullet model with a varifocal or longer fixed lens would deliver better subject detail at distance. If a flush ceiling-mounted indoor appearance is the priority, a vandal dome form factor is a more appropriate fit for that environment.
FAQs
- What does TiOC Advanced 3.0 mean in practical terms for an eave-mounted camera?
TiOC stands for Three-in-One Camera. Version 3.0 combines full-colour 24/7 imaging, SMD 4.0 AI detection, and active deterrence with a strobe and 110dB speaker into a single turret housing. For an eave-mounted installation this means no additional siren device, no separate floodlight, and no dedicated detection sensor is required at that camera position. - How do the dual illuminators behave across a typical overnight monitoring period?
In the default Smart Illumination Mode, infrared runs continuously from dusk through to dawn for discreet background monitoring. The white-light illuminator stays off until SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle target in a configured zone, at which point it activates automatically to produce full-colour footage of the event. IR-only and continuous white-light modes are also available in the camera settings if a fixed illumination behaviour is preferred. - Can the detection zones be configured to limit where the strobe and speaker activate?
Yes. Tripwire and intrusion zone rules are configurable within the camera’s interface, allowing the active deterrence area to be drawn precisely around the intended coverage zone. This is particularly useful for installations near neighbouring properties or bedroom windows, where limiting the deterrence trigger to a specific entry path rather than the full field of view avoids unnecessary disturbance. - Can this camera record without being connected to an NVR?
Yes. A MicroSD card up to 256GB inserted into the onboard slot allows the camera to record continuously or on a detected-event basis with no external recorder required. This makes the IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 viable as a standalone unit at single-point locations and also provides a local backup recording layer in networked installations if the NVR connection is interrupted. - What is needed to use AcuPick, and what can it search for?
AcuPick requires a compatible Dahua 5 Series NVR to be connected to this camera. It enables attribute-based forensic search, for example filtering recorded footage to display only red vehicles detected entering a zone within a defined time window. Without a 5 Series NVR, all other functions including detection, deterrence, two-way audio, and local MicroSD recording operate as normal. - What does the IP67 rating cover in terms of outdoor exposure?
IP67 indicates complete dust ingress protection and the ability to withstand sustained water exposure at defined pressure and duration levels. Rain, hose-down cleaning, and heavy storm conditions typical of Australian outdoor environments fall within its rating. The camera should be positioned to avoid prolonged direct submersion, but standard fully exposed outdoor mounting is appropriate for this unit. - What triggers the 110dB speaker and what sound does it produce?
The built-in speaker activates when SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle target enters a configured intrusion zone or crosses a set tripwire. The alert tone and volume settings are configurable through the camera interface. The same speaker is also used for two-way audio, allowing an operator to speak directly through the camera in real time when a detection event occurs. - Where is this camera available and what documentation is supplied?
The IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is available at Security Wholesalers and is supplied with Australian warranty and support. The product page includes the model datasheet, camera dimension drawing, operational manual, and quick start guide, all accessible via the Additional Information links below.
