Dahua SD2A500HB-GN-AW-PV-S2 5MP Full-Color Network PT Camera

The Dahua SD2A500HB-GN-AW-PV-S2 PT camera is a compact, high-performance pan-and-tilt security camera built for active perimeter protection and proactive intruder deterrence. Whether you are securing a home driveway, a retail shopfront or a small business entrance, this 5MP Wi-Fi camera pairs sharp full-colour night vision with AI-powered detection and a built-in siren and strobe light to warn off trouble before it starts.

Key Features

• 5MP Super HD Clarity: A 1/2.8″ STARVIS™ CMOS sensor captures crisp 2560 × 1920 video at up to 20 fps, so faces, number plates and fine detail stay clear day and night.
• Smart Dual Illuminators (Full-Colour Night Vision): Built-in infrared and warm white LEDs with a 30 m (98 ft) range switch automatically between black-and-white IR and full-colour night vision the moment a target is detected.
• AI Human Detection & IVS: Onboard smart analytics, including tripwire and intrusion detection, filter out blowing leaves, shadows and passing traffic, cutting false alarms and sending alerts only when a person is actually there.
• Active Deterrence: A built-in flashing white light and customisable audio siren fire automatically to warn off intruders before they get close, without waiting on a monitoring centre or a phone call.
• Two-Way Audio: An integrated microphone and loudspeaker let you speak to visitors, warn off trespassers or greet a delivery driver in real time from the DMSS app.
• Wireless & Wired Connectivity: Connect over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) for flexible placement, or hard-wire through the built-in 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet port for a rock-solid connection.
• IP66 Weatherproof Housing: Rated IP66 with 2000 V lightning protection, this camera is built to run around the clock through rain, sun and dust without missing a beat.
• Pan & Tilt Coverage: A motorised pan-and-tilt head covers a wide field of view from a single mounting point, and can be repositioned remotely through the app so fewer blind spots are left unwatched.
