§ 01Overview
What the DH-IPC-HFW2431TP-ZAS-27135-S2 is
The Dahua IPC-HFW2431TP-ZAS-S2 is a 4MP Lite vari-focal IR bullet camera suited to small and mid-sized installations that need adjustable framing and long-range night vision.
A motorised 2.7-13.5mm lens sets the field of view remotely, while IR to 60m and Starlight low-light imaging keep footage usable after dark.
120dB true WDR and 3D noise reduction handle high-contrast and dim scenes, Smart H.265+ keeps bandwidth and storage down, and the IP67 housing supports outdoor use, with microSD providing local backup.
As a Lite-series model it carries IVS tripwire and intrusion detection rather than the full human and vehicle analytics of higher ranges.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DH-IPC-HFW2431TP-ZAS-27135-S2
Long night reach
Smart IR to 60m and Starlight low-light imaging keep footage usable across driveways, yards and perimeters after dark.
Efficient on storage
Smart H.265+ encoding reduces bandwidth and storage use, which helps on multi-camera sites with limited recorder capacity.
Honest, dependable spec
As a Lite model it focuses on solid 4MP imaging with IVS tripwire and intrusion, IP67 sealing and optional IK10, without over-stating its analytics.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Small business exteriors
Adjustable framing and 60m IR cover shopfronts, side entries and rear yards for small and mid-sized premises.
Residential driveways and perimeters
The vari-focal lens and Starlight imaging suit home driveways, gates and boundaries within the IR range.
Warehouse and yard boundaries
IP67 sealing and long IR suit perimeter runs and loading areas where weather exposure is a factor.
General-purpose fixed monitoring
A cost-effective bullet for entries, corridors and car parks where solid 4MP detail and IVS alerts are enough.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
Power over PoE or 12V DC
Run a single cable for PoE (802.3af) or provide a 12V DC supply. PoE keeps cabling simple on most sites.
Set the lens for the scene
Use the motorised lens to set zoom and focus remotely after mounting, framing the target area without revisiting the camera.
Mount on a wall or eave
The bullet form suits wall and eave positions. Use a Dahua junction box where surface cabling needs concealing; confirm bracket fit for the model.
Plan analytics realistically
Configure IVS tripwire and intrusion rules for the scene; for human and vehicle classification choose a higher WizSense range.
