§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the IPC-T289PH-MU/SL
Smart Hybrid Light — IR + White 30 m
Switches between IR and warm white automatically. Colour footage when someone is detected, IR when quiet. Both reach 30 m.
Active Deterrence with Blue/Red Strobe
Flashing red and blue strobe lights plus siren trigger on human or vehicle detection. More eye-catching than white light alone.
Built-in Mic and Speaker
Two-way audio through the HiLookVision or Hik-Connect app. Speak to visitors or warn off intruders.
120 dB WDR + 512 GB SD
Handles high-contrast scenes. Supports up to 512 GB microSD for local recording.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Front of House Panoramic
Mount under the eave facing outward. One camera covers the full front yard from fence to fence. Smart hybrid light gives colour footage of visitors.
Small Shopfront Entry
Wall-mount above the door. 180° view captures both sides of the entrance. Red/blue strobe deters after-hours visitors.
Driveway and Garage
Covers both car spaces and the footpath. Two-way talk lets you speak to couriers.
Side Passage or Gate
180° view captures anyone approaching from either direction. 30 m IR covers the full length.
