§ 01Overview
What the DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is
Lens: motorised 2.7–13.5mm vari-focal.
The DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 is the reach specialist of the TiOC 3.0 turrets.
The motorised 2.7–13.5mm lens means you frame the shot from the app after mounting — wide at 108° for a yard, or zoomed right in on a gate, with faces identifiable to about 9 metres at the wide end and 25.7 metres at full zoom.
Infrared stretches to 50 metres and the warm light to 40, comfortably past the fixed turrets' 30.
The deterrence set is full TiOC 3.0: red and blue lights, siren and voice warnings, warm-light full-colour event capture, two-way talk through dual mics and a speaker, one-tap disarming in DMSS.
The 8MP F1.0 sensor rates 0.004 lux in colour, SMD 4.0 with AI SSA filters the alerts, AcuPick works on compatible recorders, and MicroSD backup reaches 512GB.
Two honest notes: this is a vari-focal you set and leave, not a PTZ you steer around live — zoom in and the wide view is gone until you change it.
And the motorised housing is rated to -30°C rather than the fixed models' -40°C, which matters nowhere in Australia.
PoE-powered (12.1W max), metal IP67 build.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2
Reach the fixed turrets can't
50 metres of infrared and identification to 25.7 metres at full zoom cover a rural gate, a long driveway or a back fence that a 2.8mm fixed lens turns into background.
Deterrence at a distance
The lights and siren voice fire where the camera looks — challenge someone at the gate 25 metres away, not once they reach the house, and talk to them through the speaker from DMSS.
Zoomed in is zoomed in
Honest trade-off: at 13.5mm the 108° wide view is gone — this camera does one framed view at a time. For wide coverage close to the house, the fixed S2 turret is the simpler, cheaper pick.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Front gates and driveway throats
Zoom onto the entry point 20-odd metres out — the tripwire fires the lights and voice warning at the boundary, before anyone is near the house.
Acreage and rural approaches
50m infrared suits long sight lines with no ambient light; SMD 4.0 keeps kangaroos and stock out of the alerts while flagging people and vehicles.
Back fences and laneway walls
Mount on the house, zoom to the fence line — deterrence at the actual entry point without cabling a detached structure.
One camera, changing needs
Rental properties or evolving layouts where re-framing beats re-mounting: adjust focal length from the app instead of moving hardware.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the Box
1. Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-ZAS-PV-ANZ-S2 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, 12.1W 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 with a clear sight line to the area you'll zoom onto. The optional PFA137 junction box keeps the connection weatherproof.
App Setup
1. Download the DMSS app, create an account and scan the device QR code. 2. Set the zoom and focus from the app first — frame the gate or driveway before drawing any zones. 3. Then draw tripwire and intrusion zones on the framed view, and pick the warning voice and light schedule through the camera's web interface.

§ 09Bundles
Recommended packages
Pair with fixed turrets
Typical layout: fixed S2 turrets on the house corners, this ZAS on the gate or driveway — one NVR, identical AI behaviour, deterrence at both distances.
Build it into a system
Use the bundle builder on this page to pair the camera with a 4, 8 or 16 channel Dahua AI NVR and a surveillance drive in one order.
Dark rather than distant?
If the problem spot is close but pitch black, the TiOC PRO turret holds colour at 0.0008 lux — five times less light than this sensor needs.
