Model Numbers TP-Link VIGI C385 (2.8 mm / 4 mm)

The TP-Link VIGI C385 is an 8 MP (3840 × 2160) outdoor full-colour bullet network camera built for reliable, round-the-clock surveillance. A fast F1.6 fixed lens, dual IR and white LEDs (up to 30 m), and 120 dB WDR deliver clear detail in mixed or low light. AI human/vehicle classification, active deterrence lights, and two-way audio help you detect, talk back, and deter in real time. Metal IP67 housing, PoE/12 V DC power options, ONVIF support, and onboard microSD recording (up to 512 GB) make deployment simple and flexible.

Key Features

  • 4K Ultra HD & 24/7 Full-Colour: Record at 8 MP (3840 × 2160) for forensic-level detail. A bright F1.6 lens plus dual IR and warm white LEDs illuminate scenes up to 30 m to keep colour visible at night, while a minimum illumination of 0.005 lux helps retain clarity when light is scarce. Ideal for entrances, car parks, and wide outdoor areas.

  • Human & Vehicle Classification: On-camera AI distinguishes people and vehicles from general motion to reduce false alarms from wind, rain, or foliage. Combine with rules like line-crossing, intrusion, region enter/exit, loitering, abandoned/object removal, and more to trigger timely push messages, local recording, white-light flashing, or audible warnings.

  • Active Defense & Two-Way Audio: Built-in speaker and microphone enable talk-back for real-time interaction with visitors or intruders. Configure light and sound alarms to automatically deter events, or trigger them on demand from the VIGI app, VIGI Security Manager, NVR, or web interface for fast, visible response.

  • Smart Video Enhancement (WDR, 3D DNR, BLC/HLC, Smart IR): 120 dB wide dynamic range balances highlights and shadows in high-contrast scenes, while advanced noise reduction preserves detail in low light. Backlight/Highlight compensation, privacy masks, ROI, and Smart IR help prevent overexposure and fine-tune image quality for each installation.

  • Lens Options & DORI Performance: Choose 2.8 mm (H: 111.4°, V: 58.8°, D: 134°) for wide coverage or 4 mm (H: 91.5°, V: 46.1°, D: 109.6°) for tighter scenes. DORI at 4 mm: Detect 107 m, Observe 44 m, Recognize 21 m, Identify 11 m; at 2.8 mm: Detect 85 m, Observe 35 m, Recognize 17 m, Identify 8 m—useful for planning camera placement and coverage.

  • Efficient Compression & Storage: Supports H.265/H.265+ and H.264/H.264+ with CBR/VBR to cut bandwidth and storage while maintaining image fidelity. Record locally to the built-in microSD slot (up to 512 GB) or to a VIGI NVR/VMS. Adjustable bit rates and dual streams simplify multi-camera deployments on constrained networks.

  • Weatherproof, Power & Build: A metal IP67 housing resists dust, rain, and heat for dependable outdoor operation from −30 °C to 60 °C. Power via 802.3af/at PoE (max 11.5 W) or 12 V DC (max 10.5 W). Compact 74 × 184 × 74 mm body with flexible mounting and manual pan/tilt/rotation eases installation and aiming.

  • Integration & Management: Works with the VIGI app, VIGI Security Manager, VIGI NVR, and third-party systems via ONVIF Profile S. Manage settings from modern browsers, enable cloud access, and use analytics search (people & vehicle attributes) to speed post-event investigations across larger sites.

Product Overview

The VIGI C385 4mm is an 8MP full-colour bullet camera designed for clear evidence day and night. With the VIGI C385 4mm you get crisp 4K images, 24/7 colour with IR/white LEDs, and AI that distinguishes people and vehicles to minimise false alerts. Two-way audio and active deterrence help stop incidents in real time, while the rugged IP67 metal housing suits Australian outdoor conditions for homes, retail, cafés and small warehouses.



IN THE BOX

Key Capabilities

4K ultra-high detail, day and night
Record at 3840×2160 to capture useful detail like clothing, vehicle colour and signage. IR and white LEDs provide up to 30 m illumination, so you retain visibility after dark while keeping footage sharp enough for quick reviews and incident evidence.

24/7 full-colour video
A bright F1.6 fixed lens plus white light LEDs keeps scenes in true colour at night. This makes it easier to identify vehicles and people accurately compared with monochrome IR-only images, improving recognition and incident follow-up.

People & vehicle analytics
AI classification filters motion to focus on humans and vehicles instead of leaves, rain or shadows. Combined with rich smart events (intrusion, line-crossing, loitering and more), alerts are more meaningful and footage searches are faster.

Active deterrence with two-way talk
Built-in microphone and speaker enable talk-through, while audible warnings and white-light flashing can deter suspicious behaviour in real time—ideal for driveways, shopfronts and loading areas where you want to intervene quickly.

Efficient storage with H.265+
Smart video coding reduces bandwidth and disk consumption while maintaining image quality. This helps extend recording days on NVRs or microSD cards and keeps remote viewing smooth on typical Australian broadband connections.

Key Features

  • 24/7 full-colour plus IR, with up to 30 metres illumination range.
  • AI human/vehicle classification and smart detection events.
  • Two-way audio, audible warning and white-light flashing for active defence.
  • Metal IP67 housing for harsh outdoor environments.
  • H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264 compression for storage and network efficiency.
  • microSD slot (up to 256 GB) or PoE to NVR; ONVIF Profile S supported.

Choosing Between the 2.8mm and 4mm Lens

The VIGI C385 is available in two fixed lens options—2.8 mm and 4 mm—so you can match the field of view to your scene:

Lens Field of View Best For Notes
2.8 mm H 111.4° / V 58.8° / D 134° Wider coverage Great for open yards, reception areas and shop floors.
4.0 mm H 91.5° / V 46.1° / D 109.6° More focused areas Best for entrances, corridors or longer-range detail.

Tip:
Choose 2.8 mm when covering a wide zone close-up.
Choose 4 mm when you need more detail further out.
