System Overview
Experience the superior clarity of Dahua's 5 MP HDCVI cameras for vast coverage and superior image details. The 5 MP HDCVI series leverages existing coax infrastructures to deliver forensic-level images seamlessly and over long distances. The HDCVI camera offers multiple output formats that are easily switchable and a 16:9 aspect ratio. With a 16:9 format, images maintain a true, undistorted view without stretching, a feature not found on many 5MP HD over coax cameras. The camera is suitable for most applications, offering IR illumination for difficult lighting conditions, input voltage tolerance for inconsistent power supplies, and IP67 certification for operation in harsh outdoor environmental conditions.

Functions

Three Signals over One Coaxial Cable
HDCVI technology simultaneously transmits video, audio, and data over a single coaxial cable. Dual-way data transmission allows the HDCVI camera to communicate with an HDCVI DVR to send control signals or to trigger alarms.

Starlight Technology
For challenging low-light applications, Dahua's Starlight Ultra-low Light Technology offers best-in-class light sensitivity, capturing details in low-light applications. The camera uses a set of optical features to balance light throughout the scene, resulting in clear images in dark environments.

Long Distance Transmission
HDCVI technology guarantees real-time transmission over long distances without loss of video quality. HDCVI cameras provide the same resolution as most IP network camera systems using existing RG-59, RG-6, or CAT 6 UTP cabling.

Simplicity
HDCVI technology seamlessly integrates traditional analog surveillance systems with upgraded, high-quality HD video, making it the best choice to protect security investments. The plug and play approach enables full HD video surveillance without the hassles of configuring a network.

Smart IR
With IR illumination, detailed images can be captured in low light or total darkness. The camera's Smart IR technology adjusts the intensity of the camera's infrared LEDs to compensate for the distance of an object. Smart IR technology prevents IR LEDs from whitening out images as they come closer to the camera. The camera's integrated infrared illumination provides high-performance in extreme low-light environments.

Multiple-format Support
The camera supports multiple video formats including, HDCVI, CVBS, AHD, and TVI. The camera can switch between these four formats via the OSD menu or the switch located on the video output cable, making the camera compatible with not only HDCVI DVRs but also most existing HD/ SD DVRs.

ArcticPro
The Dahua ArcticPro Series of extreme-environment cameras combine temperature-tolerant components with a waterproof enclosure to ensure flawless operation in temperatures as low as -40° C (-40° F) without the need for an internal heater. The lack of a heater reduces the camera's power consumption and saves operating costs. For applications that demand high-resolution video with advanced features in extremely cold environments, the Dahua ArcticPro Series offers a camera to satisfy the most demanding requirements.

True Wide Dynamic Range
The camera achieves vivid images, even in the most intense contrast lighting conditions, using industry-leading wide dynamic range (WDR) technology. For applications with both bright and low lighting conditions that change quickly, True WDR (120 dB) optimizes both the bright and dark areas of a scene at the same time to provide usable video.
