§ 01Overview
What the DH-HAC-HDW2501TP-Z-A-DP-27135-S2 is
The Dahua DH-HAC-HDW2501TP-Z-A-DP-S2 is a 5MP Starlight Pro HDCVI motorised varifocal eyeball camera for coaxial systems.
A 1/2.7-inch sensor with Starlight imaging and 120dB true WDR delivers clear colour detail in low light, while a motorised 2.7-13.5mm lens allows remote framing and Smart IR reaches up to 60m.
Its output is switchable between CVI, TVI, AHD and CVBS, so it integrates with most existing analogue and HDCVI recorders, and a built-in microphone captures audio over the same coax.
The IP67 metal housing suits outdoor positions, and the camera powers from AC 24V or 12V DC, recording to an HDCVI or penta-brid DVR rather than a network NVR.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DH-HAC-HDW2501TP-Z-A-DP-27135-S2
Fits most recorders
Switchable CVI, TVI, AHD and CVBS output integrates with most HDCVI and analogue DVRs, easing upgrades and replacements.
Long-range night coverage
Smart IR to 60m with Starlight low-light imaging keeps driveways, yards and perimeters legible in complete darkness.
Flexible framing with audio
A motorised varifocal lens sets the view remotely, and a built-in microphone captures audio over the same coax.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Coaxial system upgrades
Sites with existing coax can lift detail to 5MP by swapping cameras, keeping the cabling and a compatible DVR.
Driveways and perimeters
60m Smart IR and the motorised lens cover long approaches and boundaries, framing gates and entries precisely at night.
Retail and small business
Starlight imaging and WDR suit shopfronts and yards where lighting is mixed, with audio for added context.
Mixed analogue sites
Switchable output integrates the camera into existing AHD, TVI or CVBS systems during staged upgrades.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
Pair with an HDCVI or penta-brid DVR
Record to a DVR that supports HDCVI or the matching analogue format. For 5MP 16:9, confirm the recorder firmware supports it before installing.
Set the output format
Select CVI, TVI, AHD or CVBS to match your recorder during commissioning, then confirm the image at the DVR.
Power with AC 24V or 12V DC
Provide an AC 24V or 12V DC supply within the camera's tolerance; HDCVI does not use PoE, so plan power separately from the coax.
Mount and seal the cabling
Mount on wall or ceiling and use a Dahua junction box such as the PFA130-E and a PFB203W wall bracket to seal cabling on outdoor positions.
