Product Overview
This turret-style camera is built for eave, soffit, and wall mounting across residential and small commercial sites where everyday outdoor coverage is needed without a bulky housing. The HiLook IPC-T361H-MU captures 3200 x 1800 resolution at 6MP, giving installers and end users the detail needed to distinguish faces and licence plates at practical distances. Featuring AcuSense human and vehicle classification, the camera separates meaningful motion from background triggers such as foliage or animals, reducing unnecessary alert notifications. Equipped with dual Smart EXIR LEDs, it maintains usable footage up to 30 metres in complete darkness. With a built-in microphone, it records ambient audio alongside video to provide fuller context for any recorded event. The IP67-rated housing handles rain and dust exposure, and PoE (802.3af) keeps the installation to a single cable run per camera. Available in 2.8mm and 4mm fixed-lens variants, it suits a range of mounting positions from open yards to focused entry points.
Key Capabilities
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Classification
The IPC-T361H-MU uses AcuSense AI to separate human and vehicle motion from irrelevant triggers. This means event searches in recorded footage can be filtered by target type, and alert notifications are tied to genuine activity rather than background movement.
6MP Resolution with 120 dB WDR
At 3200 x 1800 pixels, the camera captures enough detail for licence plate and facial identification at standard mounting heights. The 120 dB wide dynamic range keeps exposure balanced in high-contrast scenes such as doorways with bright backlight or sun-facing driveways.
30m Smart EXIR Night Vision
Dual EXIR LEDs provide infrared illumination to 30 metres with adaptive intensity control that avoids overexposure when subjects move close to the lens. Minimum illumination of 0.003 Lux at F1.6 allows colour detail to be retained in low ambient light before switching to IR mode.
Built-in Microphone for Audio Recording
The integrated microphone records ambient audio continuously alongside video. This adds context to recorded events, particularly in situations where verbal exchanges or background sounds form part of an incident, without requiring an external audio device.
PoE and Flexible Lens Options
Single-cable PoE (802.3af) installation removes the need for a separate power supply at each camera position. The choice of 2.8mm (105 degree FOV) or 4mm (88 degree FOV) fixed lenses lets the installer match the camera to the physical constraints of each mounting point before going to site.
Best For
- Residential Driveways and Front Entries: The 6MP sensor and DORI detection range of 96m (2.8mm) provide enough resolution to capture vehicle detail at typical driveway lengths, while AcuSense filters street traffic from genuine driveway intrusions.
- Retail Shopfronts and Entrance Zones: The combination of 6MP resolution and built-in audio recording makes the IPC-T361H-MU suited to shopfront and entrance coverage where visual and audio evidence may both be relevant.
- Small Office and Commercial Premises: PoE simplifies deployment across multi-camera office or warehouse installations, and the turret housing mounts flush to walls or eaves without protruding cable runs.
- Outdoor Locations Exposed to Weather: IP67 dust and water ingress protection makes the camera suitable for unshielded outdoor positions including coastal and high-humidity environments common across Australian installations.
Why Choose the IPC-T361H-MU
Where a basic 2MP or 4MP turret camera captures footage, the IPC-T361H-MU adds three capabilities that change how useful that footage actually is. The 6MP sensor at 3200 x 1800 resolution provides the detail margin needed to extract usable licence plate or facial images from a still frame, something lower-resolution cameras cannot consistently deliver at real-world mounting distances. The AcuSense classification layer means recorded events are tagged by target type at capture, not just flagged as motion, which speeds up playback searches considerably. The built-in microphone is a practical addition that a standard turret camera in this class omits entirely. Paired with H.265+ compression, the higher resolution does not proportionally increase storage consumption, keeping NVR and hard drive requirements manageable. Available through Security Wholesalers with a selection of compatible mounting brackets and PoE NVR kits, the IPC-T361H-MU is a well-rounded turret camera for sites where footage quality and event accuracy both matter.
Buyer Decision Tips
Lens Selection: Choose the 2.8mm variant when mounting at eave height to cover a wide open area such as a yard, car park entry, or large shopfront. The 105 degree field of view maximises coverage width but reduces the apparent size of subjects at distance. Choose the 4mm variant for corridors, narrow driveways, or gate entries where the coverage angle can be tighter without missing the area of interest. The 4mm lens produces a 88 degree horizontal FOV and brings subjects slightly closer in the frame, which improves usable detail at the entry point being monitored.

Ideal Use Cases
Residential Driveway Monitoring
The 2.8mm lens covers wide driveway approaches at 105 degrees, while the 6MP sensor provides the resolution to capture vehicle registration detail within the 96m DORI detection range, making this a practical choice for residential entry points.
Retail Entrance and Shopfront
AcuSense classification and built-in audio recording make the IPC-T361H-MU suited to shopfront coverage where identifying whether activity involves a person, and capturing any associated audio, adds value to the recorded footage.
Office Building Perimeter
IP67 weatherproofing and PoE allow deployment across external walls and eaves of office buildings without additional waterproofing or power infrastructure. H.265+ compression keeps storage consumption manageable across multi-camera installations.
Outdoor Areas Requiring Night Coverage
The 30m Smart EXIR range with adaptive LED intensity suits unlit car parks, rear yard areas, and access paths where reliable infrared coverage is needed overnight without a separate lighting circuit.
Corridors and Internal Hallways
The 4mm lens variant narrows the field of view to 88 degrees, making it better suited to corridor and hallway installations where a tighter frame concentrates resolution along a straight passage and reduces unnecessary background coverage.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need 6MP resolution with AcuSense human and vehicle detection, a built-in microphone for audio recording, and IP67-rated outdoor durability in a compact turret housing that installs via a single PoE cable.
- Choose a different model if: Your site requires full-colour night vision without infrared switching, as this camera uses IR-based night vision rather than a white-light or colour night mode. If the installation needs vandal-resistant protection with a confirmed IK rating, a vandal dome housing may be more appropriate for that location.
FAQs
- What is the difference between the 2.8mm and 4mm lens options for the IPC-T361H-MU?
The 2.8mm lens provides a 105 degree horizontal field of view, suited to open areas where wide coverage from a single camera is the priority. The 4mm lens narrows the view to 88 degrees and is better for driveways, corridors, or entry points where you want the frame to concentrate on a defined path rather than capture a broad area.
- Does the IPC-T361H-MU support two-way audio?
No. The IPC-T361H-MU includes a built-in microphone for audio recording, but there is no built-in speaker confirmed in the product specifications. This means the camera records audio but does not support two-way voice communication out of the box.
- What does AcuSense detection actually do on this camera?
AcuSense classifies detected motion as either human, vehicle, or neither. This means the camera can be configured to send alerts only when a person or vehicle is detected, filtering out triggers caused by animals, insects, or foliage movement. It also allows recorded footage to be searched by target type, which saves time during playback review.
- Can this camera be installed outdoors without additional weatherproofing?
Yes. The IP67 rating confirms the housing is sealed against dust ingress and against water immersion up to 1 metre for 30 minutes under testing conditions. This makes it suitable for exposed outdoor positions including eaves, fascia boards, and external walls without additional enclosures, covering typical Australian weather conditions including rain and humidity.
- What NVR is compatible with the IPC-T361H-MU?
The IPC-T361H-MU is compatible with HiLook and Hikvision NVRs that support PoE (802.3af) input and are capable of recording at 6MP. The camera is part of the HiLook ecosystem and is available at Security Wholesalers alongside compatible HiLook PoE NVRs in 4-channel and 8-channel configurations. Confirm the NVR channel count and maximum resolution per channel before ordering.
- Does this camera include an SD card slot for local storage?
The product data provided does not confirm a built-in SD card slot. Recording is intended to be handled via a connected NVR. If local edge storage is a requirement for your installation, confirm this specification against the manufacturer datasheet before purchasing.
