§ 01Overview

What the DH-IPC-HDW5842TM-ASE-S3 is

The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW5842TM-ASE-S3 is an 8MP WizMind-S fixed-focal eyeball built around a large 1/1.8-inch sensor, delivering 4K (3840 x 2160) at up to 30fps with the detail to identify faces and read plates.

Starlight low-light imaging and 120dB WDR handle dim and high-contrast scenes, and Smart IR reaches up to 50m.

WizMind deep-learning analytics run on the camera, adding face detection with attribute extraction, people counting, video metadata and perimeter protection that classifies humans, vehicles and animals.

AcuPick, with a compatible Dahua AI NVR, lets operators quickly match and find a person or vehicle across recorded video.

A built-in microphone and an IP67 metal housing suit multi-site commercial deployments, with PoE (802.3af) or ePoE power and microSD storage up to 1TB.

The fixed 2.8mm lens gives a wide view, so plan the mounting position for the area you need.

What the DH-IPC-HDW5842TM-ASE-S3 features actually look like

Representative illustrations of how each key feature performs in a real scene.

8MP Ultra HD

8MP (4K) resolution captures four times the detail of 1080p.
Even when a person or car is far down the driveway, you can zoom in and still recognise a face or read a number plate — detail that lower-resolution cameras lose.

50m IR Night Vision

Built-in infrared sees in total darkness up to around 50m — good for longer driveways, car parks and wider properties. People and vehicles stay visible well beyond the reach of a porch light.

Human/Vehicle Detection

Smart detection focuses on people and vehicles and can ignore things like swaying branches, rain or small animals — helping cut down false alerts and making the right moments easier to find.

IP67 Weatherproof

Sealed against dust and water to IP67, built to keep working through rain, storms and harsh sun — suitable for fully outdoor mounting.

§ 02Engineering

DH-IPC-HDW5842TM-ASE-S3 specifications

- Sensor and resolution: large 1/1.8" 8MP CMOS, 3840 x 2160 at up to 25/30 fps, for wide coverage with fine detail

- Lens: fixed 2.8mm, F1.6, giving a wide field of view; the lens does not zoom, so plan the position for the scene

- Low light: Starlight imaging with 120dB WDR and 3D NR for poor and high-contrast lighting

- Night vision: Smart IR up to 50m across 2 LEDs, adjusting intensity to avoid overexposing close subjects

- AI analytics on-device: face detection with attributes, people counting and video metadata run on the camera

- Classification: perimeter protection (tripwire, intrusion, fast moving) classifies humans, vehicles and animals

- AcuPick: with a compatible Dahua AI NVR, quickly matches and finds a person or vehicle across recorded video

- Audio and power: built-in microphone; IP67 metal housing; PoE (802.3af) or ePoE; microSD up to 1TB

§ 04Why choose this

Built for the way you actually use the DH-IPC-HDW5842TM-ASE-S3

4K detail on a large sensor

A 1/1.8-inch 8MP sensor captures wide scenes with the detail to identify faces and read plates, and improves low-light performance over smaller-sensor 8MP cameras.

Analytics on the camera

Face detection, people counting, video metadata and human, vehicle and animal classification run on-device, giving structured data without a dedicated AI server.

Faster investigations

With a compatible Dahua AI NVR, AcuPick lets operators quickly locate a person or vehicle across hours of recorded video, cutting review time.

Efficient and weatherproof

Smart H.265+ controls storage and bandwidth at 4K, microSD up to 1TB adds edge backup, and the IP67 housing handles exposed eave, wall and outdoor positions.

§ 05Where it fits

Right at home in these scenarios

Commercial building perimeters

Wide 8MP coverage with enough detail to identify individuals, in an IP67 housing for exposed eave and wall positions year-round.

Retail and hospitality entries

Face detection and people counting add operational insight alongside security footage at monitored entries and exits.

Campus and multi-site systems

On-device WizMind AI and Smart H.265+ keep infrastructure costs down when scaling across many camera positions on NVR-based systems.

Car parks and driveways

Human, vehicle and animal classification filters alerts by target type, and 50m Smart IR keeps approaching vehicles legible in darkness.

§ 06Setup

Installation & setup

01

Choose the position for the fixed lens

Because the 2.8mm lens is fixed, pick the mounting position and height to match the scene width you need. Confirm coverage before ordering, as it cannot be adjusted later without cropping.

02

Power over PoE, ePoE or 12V DC

Run PoE (802.3af) over a single cable, use ePoE for longer runs, or provide a 12V DC supply where PoE is unavailable.

03

Mount on wall, ceiling or eave

The eyeball housing adjusts at the mount for walls, soffits and ceilings. Use a Dahua junction box such as the PFA130-E where surface cabling or clearance is needed.

04

Pair an AI NVR for AcuPick

To use AcuPick, connect the camera to a compatible Dahua AI NVR so target search runs across recorded video.

§ 07Questions

Frequently asked about the DH-IPC-HDW5842TM-ASE-S3

Q.01

Does this camera have a zoom lens?

No. It uses a fixed 2.8mm lens, giving a wide field of view set by the lens and the mounting distance. Work out the scene width you need at the mounting point before ordering, as the view cannot be changed in software without cropping the 4K image.
Q.02

How far does the night vision reach?

Smart IR reaches up to 50m across two LEDs. It adjusts intensity as subjects move closer to prevent overexposure, so footage stays usable across driveways, car parks and entries from the foreground to the edge of the range.
Q.03

What AI analytics does it run on the camera?

It runs WizMind deep-learning analytics on-device, including face detection with attribute extraction, people counting and video metadata, plus perimeter protection (tripwire, intrusion, fast moving) that classifies humans, vehicles and animals to keep alerts relevant.
Q.04

What is AcuPick and what do I need for it?

AcuPick lets you quickly search recorded video for a specific person or vehicle. It works with the camera paired to a compatible Dahua AI NVR, which performs the matching across live and recorded footage, rather than running on the camera alone.
Q.05

Does it have two-way audio?

No. It has a built-in microphone for recording on-site audio, but no built-in speaker, so it does not provide two-way talk. Connect external audio devices to the audio interface if you need to play sound.
Q.06

Is it rated against impact?

The Dahua datasheet rates this model IP67 for dust and water. The specification does not list an IK impact rating for this model, so we describe it as IP67 weatherproof and do not claim a vandal rating.
Q.07

How much can it store locally and how is it powered?

It supports a microSD card up to 1TB for edge recording, and runs on 12V DC, PoE (802.3af) or ePoE. ePoE supports longer cable runs than standard PoE, which helps on larger commercial sites.
Q.08

Will it work with a third-party recorder?

Video works over ONVIF Profile S, G and T. WizMind analytics events are fully managed with a Dahua NVR that supports WizMind, and AcuPick needs a compatible Dahua AI NVR. On a third-party recorder, confirm which analytics events it can receive before specifying the system.
