§ 01Overview
What the DHI-ITC215-PW6M-IRLZF-B is
The Dahua DHI-ITC215-PW6M-IRLZF-B is a 2MP ANPR camera built specifically for short-range vehicle entries such as boom gates, residential estate gates and car park lanes.
Unlike a general surveillance camera, it runs a dedicated number plate recognition engine that reads the plate and identifies vehicle attributes including type, logo, series and colour, and can flag vehicles with no visible plate.
The manufacturer datasheet lists a capture range of around 3 to 6m and a maximum detected vehicle speed of 30km/h, so it is designed for slow-moving or stationary vehicles at a defined stop point rather than open roads.
A motorised 3.2-10.5mm lens lets you frame the capture zone precisely from the recorder after mounting, which simplifies set-up in tight lanes.
A built-in IR illuminator (rated to 12m) keeps plate capture working day and night without external lighting, and a 96dB WDR sensor holds detail against backlight and headlight glare.
Alarm inputs and relay outputs let the camera trigger a boom barrier or gate directly on a recognised plate.
The IP67 metal-and-plastic housing suits outdoor entries, and it powers from 12V DC, 24V AC or PoE+.
To use the plate database, allow and block lists and event search end to end, pair it with a Dahua recorder or platform that supports ANPR.
It has line-level audio terminals but no built-in microphone, so it does not record on-site audio on its own.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DHI-ITC215-PW6M-IRLZF-B
Triggers the gate itself
Relay outputs let a recognised plate open a boom barrier directly, simplifying single-lane access without a separate controller.
Reliable day-and-night reads
Built-in IR to 12m and a 96dB WDR sensor keep plates legible against darkness, backlight and headlight glare.
Quick to frame and weatherproof
A motorised 3.2-10.5mm lens sets the capture zone from the recorder, and an IP67 housing suits exposed outdoor gates.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Boom gates and barriers
Triggers a boom arm on a recognised plate at a single controlled lane, logging each vehicle that enters or exits.
Residential estate entries
Automates access at a gated estate where vehicles slow or stop within the short capture range of the camera.
Car park entry and exit lanes
Captures plates and vehicle attributes for ticketing or permit systems at slow-approach entry and exit points.
Secured facility access
Logs delivery and staff vehicles at a controlled gate, with relay output to integrate with barrier hardware.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
Mount for a perpendicular plate view
Fix the camera so it has a near-straight view of the number plate within roughly 3 to 6m, as both distance and angle affect read accuracy. Test with the actual vehicles used at the site.
Power with 12V DC, 24V AC or PoE+
Provide PoE+ from a capable switch or injector, or a 12V DC or 24V AC supply. Standard PoE may not deliver enough power for the camera and illuminator.
Wire the barrier control
Connect the alarm and relay outputs to your boom gate or barrier controller so a recognised plate can trigger the gate.
Set the lens and ANPR rules
Frame the capture zone with the motorised lens from the recorder, then configure plate recognition, allow and block lists on a Dahua ANPR-capable recorder or platform.
