🚨 5MP HDCVI Active Deterrence Security Solution
The Dahua DH-HAC-ME1500EQP (part of the HAC-ME1500E active deterrence series) is a 5MP HDCVI Motion-Detection & PIR Eyeball Camera designed for proactive security. Equipped with dual-detection technology, it actively deters trespassers using visual and audible warnings before incidents escalate.
🌟 Key Product Features
- 5MP Super HD Image Resolution: Captures high-definition video at 2592 × 1944 resolution at 20 fps (or 4MP at 25/30 fps) for crisp visual detail.
- Active Deterrence White Light & Siren: Triggers a bright white warning light and a loud built-in siren alarm upon PIR target detection.
- Dual-Detection PIR Sensor: Built-in Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor (10m / 110° range) works with motion detection to reduce false triggers caused by wind, rain, or falling leaves.
- Smart IR Night Vision: Provides clear black-and-white footage up to 20m (66 ft) in complete darkness without overexposing targets.
- HD/SD Switchable: Supports HDCVI and standard CVBS video outputs switchable via DIP switch or UTC control.
- Outdoor Weatherproof Housing: IP67-rated weatherproofing ensures reliable performance in harsh rain, dust, and outdoor conditions.

Active Deterrence & Dual Detection:
White Light Warning & Siren: Bright flashing white light paired with an audible warning siren instantly alerts trespassers that they are monitored.
PIR Thermal Sensing: Detects targets based on thermal body heat rather than pixel changes alone, cutting down false alarms from shadows or background foliage to an absolute minimum.
Real-Time Mobile Alerts: Sends visual alarm notifications instantly to your smartphone app when paired with a compatible Dahua XVR recorder.
Accurate Alarm Filtering
By pairing physical PIR body heat detection with smart video analytics, the DH-HAC-ME1500EQP ensures that active deterrence measures only activate when genuine human targets cross your boundary lines. (Note: AI and advanced recorder functions are managed through your connected Dahua XVR).
Best For:
- Driveways & Front Porches: PIR thermal sensing detects approaching visitors while white light illumination brightens dark walkways.
- Side Passages & Backyard Gates: Active light and siren warnings stop intruders before they reach back doors or windows.
- Commercial Storefronts & Warehouses: Provides reliable after-hours perimeter protection without triggering on passing cars or small animals.
- Residential Upgrades: Ideal for homeowners replacing older analogue cameras using existing coax cabling without running new network lines.
Why Choose the DH-HAC-ME1500EQP?
Standard security cameras passively record footage while crimes occur. The Dahua DH-HAC-ME1500EQP actively stops threats in real time by using a physical PIR heat sensor to detect human presence and immediately firing a bright white strobe and audio siren. Operating on standard coaxial cabling via HDCVI technology, it allows you to upgrade to 5MP Super HD resolution and active deterrence without replacing your existing coax wire infrastructure. Combined with IP67 weatherproof durability and our 3-year local warranty, it provides high-tier perimeter security with total reliability.

FAQs
What is the benefit of a built-in PIR sensor compared to standard motion detection?
Standard motion detection relies on pixel changes in the video frame, which can easily trigger false alarms from blowing tree branches, rain, bugs, or light reflections. A PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor detects actual moving body heat sources, ensuring the camera only triggers active deterrence light and sound alarms when a real person or vehicle enters the area.
Does this camera run on network IP cable (Cat6) or coaxial cable?
The DH-HAC-ME1500EQP is an HDCVI camera that runs over standard coaxial cabling (RG59 / RG6). It connects to a compatible HDCVI XVR recorder via BNC connectors, making it an ideal drop-in upgrade for older analogue security systems without requiring rewiring.
Can I turn off the white light and siren when I don’t need them?
Yes. The active deterrence strobe light and siren can be armed or disarmed via your connected Dahua XVR recorder interface or through the mobile app. You can also set automated schedules so deterrence features only arm during after-hours periods.
Will the active deterrence light stay on all night?
No. The built-in white light remains off during normal operation while infrared (IR) handles invisible night vision. The white light only illuminates when the PIR sensor detects a moving heat source, acting as a spot warning before returning to silent IR mode.
