§ 01Overview
What the DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 is
Lens: 2.8mm.
Black housing.
This is the black-housing version of the DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 — identical inside to the white TiOC 3.0 turret in our kits: the same 8MP F1.0 sensor rated to 0.004 lux colour, the same red and blue lights, siren voices, warm-light event capture and two-way talk.
Buy it by the surface it mounts on: dark eaves, Monument and Woodland Grey fascias, timber soffits and black carport frames where a white dome of plastic announces itself.
The deterrence package is the full TiOC 3.0 set: tripwire and intrusion zones fire the lights and a voice warning, the warm light switches on so the event records in 4K full colour, and one-tap disarming in DMSS stands it down for expected visitors.
SMD 4.0 with AI SSA keeps alerts to humans and vehicles, and AcuPick search works on compatible Dahua recorders.
It runs from any 802.3af PoE port (10.1W with everything firing) in a metal IP67 housing rated from -40°C to +60°C.
Note the practical trade-off of dark housings: they absorb heat on exposed north-facing walls, so under-eave mounting is the better home for it.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2
Same camera as the kits, different colour
Identical sensor, AI and deterrence to the white HDW3849 S2 running our 4, 6 and 8 camera kits — so a black unit slots into an existing kit system without a mismatch in features.
4K evidence with F1.0 light-gathering
Eight million pixels usually cost you night performance — the F1.0 lens claws it back at 0.004 lux colour, and the recording holds zoomable detail afterwards.
Loud on purpose — make sure that suits the spot
Strobes and siren voices confront whoever triggers them. Draw zones to your own boundary and schedule sound overnight — or pick the quieter 3866 WizSense turret where evidence is enough.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Dark eaves and Monument fascias
Modern builds in Monument, Woodland Grey and Basalt swallow a black turret visually — the camera reads as a fitting, not an add-on, until its lights fire.
Timber and heritage frontages
On stained timber soffits and dark heritage trim, black hardware keeps the streetscape intact while the tripwire still guards the verandah.
Carports and steel structures
Black steel posts and beams hide the housing; anyone reaching a car door still gets the lights, the voice warning and a full-colour 4K recording.
Matched dark multi-camera setups
Running several black cameras keeps a consistent look across the build — and this one shares its AI and deterrence with the white kit cameras, so mixed systems behave identically.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the Box
1. Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-ANZ-S2 (Black) Camera × 1 2. Power Connector × 1 3. Quick Start Guide × 1
Installation Requirements
1. Power: any 802.3af PoE NVR port or switch (5.8W typical, 10.1W max with the lights and speaker running). A separate 12V DC adapter is only needed without PoE. 2. Network: a wired Ethernet run back to your NVR or switch — PoE carries power and video together on the same line. 3. Mounting: solid wall, ceiling or eave at 2.5–3 metres. The optional PFA137 junction box keeps the connection weatherproof and makes future swaps a 2-minute job.
App Setup
1. Download the DMSS app, create an account and scan the device QR code. 2. Enable push notifications, and keep the one-tap disarm switch handy for expected visitors. 3. Draw tripwire and intrusion zones tight to your own property through the camera's web interface — the warning voice, light behaviour and schedules live there too.

Building a full system?
Our 4, 6 and 8 camera TiOC kits run the white version of this exact camera with an AI NVR and 4TB drive — order the kit and note black housings in your order message.
Want the white version?
The white HDW3849 S2 is the same camera for light-coloured eaves and render.
Night-first spot?
The TiOC PRO turret rates 0.0008 lux in colour — five times less light needed — where a dark corner gets no help from ambient light.
