Dahua DH-HAC-HDW1200EMP-A 2MP HDCVI IR EyeBall Camera with Audio

Dahua HAC-HDW1200EMP-A — 50m IR Range. Full Metal Body. Audio. The Reliable Workhorse.

The Dahua HAC-HDW1200EMP-A is one of the most practical and widely-trusted HDCVI eyeball cameras in the Lite Series. With an impressive 50-metre Smart IR range — substantially longer than the 20-30m typical of cameras in this class — a full metal body, built-in microphone, and 360° adjustable eyeball mount, it’s a genuinely versatile choice for large outdoor areas, car parks, building perimeters, warehouses, and factory floors.

🔭 50m Smart IR — Exceptional Coverage Distance

Most cameras in this price range offer 20-30m of IR night vision. The HAC-HDW1200EMP-A pushes that to 50 metres — covering significantly larger areas with a single camera. Smart IR technology automatically adjusts IR LED power output as subjects approach the camera, preventing overexposure at close range (the white-out effect common with fixed-power IR) while maintaining maximum range at distance. Minimum illumination: 0.02 Lux@F2.0 in color, 0 Lux with IR on.

🎙️ Audio Over Coaxial — Built-In Mic

The -A suffix designates the audio model — the built-in microphone captures environmental sound transmitted over the existing coaxial cable via HDCVI’s 4-in-1 signal (video + audio + data + power). Compatible with Dahua DVR/XVR units that have audio input channels.

📐 Eyeball Mount — True 3-Axis Adjustment

The eyeball (or turret) design allows Pan: 0°–360°, Tilt: 0°–78°, Rotation: 0°–360° — full 3-axis positioning after mounting. This means the camera position can be precisely dialed in after the base is fixed to a ceiling or wall, without needing to reposition the entire mount. Particularly useful in tight installation spaces.

📡 HDCVI Technology — Long-Distance Transmission Without Quality Loss

Dahua’s proprietary High Definition Composite Video Interface (HDCVI) transmits full-HD video, audio, data, and power over a single coaxial cable — up to 700 meters for HD video and 300 meters via UTP cable. Unlike IP cameras that require Cat5/6 cabling and network infrastructure, HDCVI cameras work directly with existing coaxial cable runs — making them the ideal upgrade path for existing analog systems or new installations where network infrastructure is unavailable.

🔌 Multi-Format Compatibility — CVI / CVBS / AHD / TVI

The camera supports four video output formats — HDCVI, CVBS (analog), AHD, and TVI — switchable via the OSD menu or a UTC controller. This makes it compatible with virtually every DVR and XVR system in the market: Dahua, Hikvision, and third-party recorders. No proprietary lock-in. No compatibility guesswork.

🛡️ IP67 Weather Protection — Built for Bangladesh’s Climate

IP67 rated — fully dustproof and waterproof up to 1 metre submersion for 30 minutes. Survives monsoon rains, humidity, construction dust, and extreme heat without degradation. Operating temperature range: -40°C to +60°C. Built to run continuously in outdoor installations year-round.

⚡ Advanced Signal Quality

Signal-to-noise ratio greater than 65dB — ensuring clean, clear video with minimal interference even over long cable runs. 2D/3D Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) reduces image grain in low-light without sacrificing detail or sharpness. BLC (Back Light Compensation) and WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) ensure balanced exposure in high-contrast scenes.
