01Overview

What the DHI-ART-ARC3800H-03-FW2-B is

The Dahua DHI-ART-ARC3800H-03-FW2 is an AirShield wireless alarm starter kit built around the Hub 2 control panel. The hub reports over Ethernet, Wi-Fi and built-in 4G LTE (dual-SIM slot for carrier flexibility; one SIM active at a time), so an alarm still gets through if one network path drops.This kit pairs the hub with a keyfob, a door (reed) detector and a PIR motion detector to cover a first entry and room, and the system expands to up to 150 wireless peripherals as the property grows, including sirens, extra detectors, keypads and repeaters.

You arm, disarm and manage the system from the free DMSS app, with real-time push notifications, SMS and phone-call alerts, and scheduled arming. There is no mandatory monthly fee: you own the equipment and can self-monitor through the app, or connect a professional monitoring service if you prefer. Two-way wireless communication with AES128 encryption and frequency hopping helps resist jamming and interference, and tamper and low-battery alarms flag any problem. A built-in rechargeable battery keeps the hub running through a power cut. The kit suits houses, apartments, shops and offices, and the 4G option requires a SIM card. Note that this starter kit does not include a siren, which can be added from the AirShield range.

04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DHI-ART-ARC3800H-03-FW2-B

No lock-in monitoring fee

Own the equipment and self-monitor through the DMSS app, or add a monitoring service only if you want one.

Reliable triple-path reporting

Ethernet, Wi-Fi and 4G LTE (with dual-SIM slot) keep alarms reporting even if one connection or mains power drops.

Grows with the property

Start with the hub, keyfob and two detectors, then expand to up to 150 peripherals including sirens and keypads.

Secure, interference-resistant wireless

Two-way links with AES128 encryption and frequency hopping help resist jamming, with tamper and low-battery alarms built in.

05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Homes and apartments

Protects a first entry and living area out of the box, then expands to cover more doors, rooms and outdoor sirens as needed.

Shops and small offices

Gives a retailer or small business app-based arming, alerts and self-monitoring without a wired panel or a monthly contract.

Rental and retrofit sites

Wireless detectors install without cabling, suiting rentals and finished buildings where running cable is not practical.

Properties needing 4G backup

Sites with unreliable internet benefit from the dual-SIM 4G path that keeps the alarm reporting independently of the modem.

06Setup

Installation & setup

  1. Place the hub centrally

    Mount or sit the hub where it has good network or Wi-Fi signal and is central to the peripherals, so wireless links stay strong across the property.

  2. Add a SIM for 4G backup

    Fit a SIM card if you want the 4G LTE backup path; the hub can also run on wired network or Wi-Fi alone.

  3. Mount the detectors correctly

    Fit the PIR at the recommended height and aim it away from heaters, stairs and direct pet paths, and place the door detector on the entry door and frame.

  4. Set up and expand in DMSS

    Add the hub to the free DMSS app to arm, disarm, schedule and receive alerts, then pair extra detectors, sirens or keypads as you grow the system.

08Questions

Frequently asked about the DHI-ART-ARC3800H-03-FW2-B

Q.01

Is there a monthly fee to use this alarm?
No. There is no mandatory subscription. You own the equipment and can self-monitor through the free DMSS app, receiving push notifications, SMS and phone-call alerts yourself. If you want a back-to-base service, you can connect a professional monitoring provider, but it is optional rather than required to use the system.
Q.02

What is included in this starter kit?
This kit pairs the AirShield Hub 2 with a keyfob, a wireless door (reed) detector and a wireless PIR motion detector, which covers a first entry door and a room. It is a starter set designed to be expanded, so you add more detectors, sirens, keypads or repeaters from the AirShield range to suit the property.
Q.03

Does the kit come with a siren?
No, this starter kit does not include a siren. You can add a wireless indoor siren or a wireless outdoor siren from the AirShield range to suit your property, so the system sounds an audible alarm as well as sending app and phone alerts.
Q.04

How many devices can the hub support?
The Hub 2 supports up to 150 wireless peripherals in total, including sirens, door and motion detectors, keypads, keyfobs and repeaters. That headroom means a single hub can scale from a small flat up to a larger home or business as you add zones over time.
Q.05

Do I need a SIM card and internet?
The hub can report over your wired network or Wi-Fi without a SIM. The built-in 4G LTE is a backup path that needs a SIM card, and it keeps the alarm reporting if your internet or power to the modem goes down. Using all three paths together gives the most resilient reporting.
Q.06

How does it stay connected if the power or network fails?
The hub has a built-in rechargeable battery that keeps it running through a mains power cut, and 4G (with dual-SIM slot, one active at a time) provides a cellular path if the wired or Wi-Fi connection drops. Two-way communication with frequency hopping and AES128 encryption also helps the wireless links resist jamming and interference.
Q.07

Will it cause false alarms from pets?
The included PIR detector has adjustable sensitivity and pet immunity for animals up to around 18kg, which helps reduce nuisance triggers from household pets. Correct mounting height and aim also matter, so position detectors to avoid pointing directly at stairs, heaters or pet paths.
Q.08

What sort of properties is it suited to?
It suits houses, apartments, shops and offices that want a flexible wireless alarm without running cables. Because it expands to 150 peripherals and reports over network, Wi-Fi and 4G, it works for both small single-room setups and larger multi-zone properties as you add devices.
