Dahua HAC-HFW1209CP-LED — Full-Color Bullet Camera. Vivid Night Color. Essential Model.

The Dahua HAC-HFW1209CP-LED is the standard (non-audio) full-color HDCVI bullet camera — delivering 24/7 color imaging with warm white LED illumination in a reliable, straightforward package. If you need full-color night vision from an outdoor bullet camera without the additional cost of audio functionality, this is the model. It uses the same starlight HDCVI sensor and LED illuminator technology as the audio models, at a more accessible price point.

🌈 Full-Color 24/7 Imaging — Color in Complete Darkness

Unlike standard IR cameras that switch to grainy black-and-white at night, this full-color camera uses warm white LED illuminators to flood the scene with visible light — capturing vivid, color-accurate footage even in total darkness. Color detail matters for security: identifying clothing colors, vehicle colors, and facial features is significantly easier from color footage than monochrome IR images.

📐 Metal + Plastic HFW Body — Built for Outdoor Use

The HAC-HFW1209CP-LED features a metal front section with plastic main body — a construction balance that provides solid protection for the lens and LED assembly (the most exposed components) while keeping overall weight and cost manageable. The barrel sun visor protects the lens from rain droplets directly hitting the sensor, reducing water glare artifacts in night footage.

🌟 Starlight Sensitivity — Colour Before the LEDs Even Turn On

The camera’s starlight CMOS sensor is sensitive enough to capture usable color images in very low ambient light — before the LED illuminator even activates. The LED kicks in as a supplement when natural/artificial light is insufficient, rather than being the only source of image. This means the camera operates efficiently, consuming less LED power during partially lit hours (streetlit environments, lit car parks, illuminated buildings).

📡 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.
